The SlingFin 2Lite is right at home in the Canadian Rockies. Intermittent storms and precip was no obstacle for this sub-3lb semi-freestanding beast of a 2p tent.

The SlingFin 2Lite might be the most underrated backpacking tent in the market. Sub-3lb weight, with 5lb+ strength and packed with livable features, this shelter makes very few compromises.

We had such a blast at PCT Trail Days! We met so many lovely people, some that have used our gear for years and some that have never heard of us. We just stoked to be a small part of this incredible community of people that make it a priority to spend as much time outside as possible.

Smoky summit camps with the 2Lite. Despite its ultralight weight (2lbs 10oz), the 2Lite is strong as an ox, perfect for those alpine sunset and sunrise views. When pitched in-line with the dominant wind direction, this design distributes the load evenly along the strongest grain of the 10D Nylon 66 Ripstop Sil/Sil fly. This greatly reduces the strain in the DAC featherlite poles. When you pair that design with innovative strength-boosting features like the internal tensioning system and toggles which attach the fly directly to the poles to reduce buffeting, you get an insanely strong 2p tent.

The Portal 2 is right at home in the Winds. Built light enough for long miles and strong enough for the unknown, the Portal 2 is a lightweight tent that makes no compromises.
