The Aston XL is a bigger version of the Aston double wall tent. It can comfortably protect two tall persons (up to 2m00) from bad weather with the innertent, and three to four persons without it.

The Aston tipi has 8 anchor points to the ground, as well as 10 guylines points, for good wind resistance. Unlike most tipis, the central pole is shifted forward, outside of the inner tent. This allows for a pleasant living space between sleepers.


Details :

  • Durable fabrics (30D silpoly for rainfly + 70D nylon PU for ground)
  • Large vestibule
  • Seams are factory sealed
  • Quick and easy pitching by one person, rainfly first
  • Rainfly and inner tent can be pitched independently
  • Large vent above the vestibule to manage condensation
  • The door can be opened without wetting the inner tent
  • Pitches down to the ground in case of bad weather
  • 8 guylines included for wind resistance

Rainfly options

Ultralight fabric : -120g
Changes the standard fabric (silpoly 30D) for an ultralight fabric with high resistance/weight ratio (silnylon 20D sil/sil 2.500mm). Wind and weather resistance remains similar. In wet weather, the silnylon may stretch slightly. This remains insensitive if the rainfly was well tensed from the start. If necessary, increasing the height of the pole by a few cm allows the rainfly to be tightened. Durable, but will require a little more care than 30D silpoly.

Reinforced : +120g

Fasteners, buckles and webbing are changed for 15mm version (standard 10mm). Zipper YKK #8 (very strong). For the innertent, standard 15D mosquito netting is changed for 30D mosquito netting.

Storage bag fabric changed for 70D PU.


Options for the innertent Mosquito netting only: -20g

Changes the windproof yellow fabric for mosquito netting. Recommended for use in warm countries.


Ultralight ground fabric -175g

Changes the ground fabric (Nylon 70D PU 10.000mm) for ultralight silpoly 20D PU 4000mm fabric. It saves weight, but you will need to be gentle and/or use it with an extra groundsheet.


Accessories

Stakes : 185g

A set of 16 stakes is available : we chose high quality aluminium stakes made in the Netherlands :
  • 8 Rockpin stakes to anchor your tipi on the hardest grounds
  • 8 UL duraluminium stakes for guylines when the weather turns bad.

Assembly of two trekking poles :

The required length of the central pole is 170cm. We advise to use both of your trekking poles strapped together with the included webbing. This solution is the lightest and very resistant : instuctions here (pdf).


Mostert central pole : 350g

If you do not use trekking poles, a light and strong mostert pole is available.


2 separate carrying bags :

This option allows you to get 2 separate bags instead of a single one:  one for the rainfly and one for the innertent.
