    Terra Nova Laser Competition 1

    Um, no idea. Probably as well as in many other small tents :) i.e a bit small for someone of your height I haven't pitched this one properly (or the other one for that matter!) so can't comment how my 5'8" frame finds it. Floor plans suggest the maxmimum length of the inner is 220cm, headroom...

    Volumising footbeads

    I have a pair of those sole insoles - the red ones. They do take up a fair bit of space, so much so that I no longer use them in the trainers I bought them for. Brasher sell some volume reducing footbeds which are completely flat - they go under your existing footbeds.

    Trekking poles - Mountain King?

    I have a pair of the Mountain King Expedition Carbon poles. I think I got them from backpackinglight.co.uk a few years ago. I don't get out walking anywhere near enough but I always take them with me when I do. Very happy with them so far.

    Tarp tent what one ?

    The trailstar looks great and oookworks makes a custom inner. Alas, Mountain Laurel Designs now have an 8-12 week waiting list :(

    Alpkit Skyhigh 600

    Interesting... Was there none or just a lot less? I recently purchased a pipedream 800 - returned it as it felt a bit snug for me AND because there was a lot more fill across the top than the underside. I understand the bags have sidewall baffles to stop the down migrating but, if combined...

    Alpkit Pipedream sleepings bags - some questions

    Alpkit Pipedream sleepings bags - some questions

    I understand a few you are proud owners of one or more of the bags in the Alpkit Pipedream range. I'm thinking of getting a PD600 for general use. The low weight and pack volume is very appealing and (in my opinion) there isn't really that much of a price difference anymore between the...

    Where to buy end tips for alloy tent poles?

    Thanks chaps but the nearby Blacks doesn't appear to be closing (yet). Will check gooutdoors but I'm not hopeful. Their shops seem to stock more of their own brand crap every time I pop in. Has anyone bought ever bought a pole tip that wasn't part of a set?
