DMH Outdoors Jindabyne

Best big dome in the wind – We have used Jindabyne 6 person tents for our Scout patrols since 2004. Correctly set up they are really sturdy in wind.

Geodesic with standing headroom for 10kgs is great – I have had my Jindabyne 4 for at least 5 years and only recently needed to seal the seams. It has been excellent in wind and bad weather. I appreciate the 9.6kgs weight. I will need to replace my tent soon but the new model is less attactive because the vestibules have been elliminated. Bring back the vestibules!!! Light, big and storm proof The new model has no vestibules

Very quick setup – Strong geodesic design, quick setup, tent clips onto the poles, so no threading of poles through mesh is required. good touring dome tent if you're after a tent that requires little setup time. Never had any water problems Quick setup, can handle strong winds  Show reply
