Trailstar knockoff from aliexpress.com (China) for $63!!
You couldn't get the silnylon for that price. I just ordered one, I can post back here when I get it with photos and info. The last batch sold out and I messaged the seller asking him to get more, so it looks like even if they are sold out you might be able to get some. This could be great or a total waste of money, but I will fill you all in!

Fun! I can't wait to compare notes. Did you get gray or orange?
I use have a BA Fly Creek 2, but it actually belongs to my girlfriend and her sister, so I need something else. I asked for a Tarptent Notch for xmas/bday, and I am not sure why I would need this as well...but I just think they look cool and it was such a good deal (assuming it's not a piece of junk)

Which shelters do you use, and when do you think you will use this as opposed to others? I was thinking I would use this when there aren't bugs, and I am going with another person, although under those conditions you can fit 2 in the notch...with much less room though I guess.
Or if I was going to go in the rain and I wanted a big shelter to cook under?

Also they have a bug inner for 40 bucks that weights 12oz and would work with this.

Do keep us posted.
My current go-go shelter is the BetaLight. It'd be nice to have a good shelter that doesn't have a zipper that can fail.

I reviewed the product descriptions on the site and they seemed kind of weird. Weights of the tents seemed kind of heavy for the thickness of the fabric. Also the dimensions of the sleeping pads were unreal. The thickness of one pad was listed as 90 cm! Dang that is almost 3 feet! Anyhow I'd be a little wary based on what I read.

I got the grey one. This is the inner that might work.punchcard wrote:I got orange. Do you have a link to the bug inner net?

I think it might need to be modified, which would be a fun MYOG DIY project for me rather than starting from scratch, and would cost way less. The inner is made by 3f UL gear, and their stuff looks to be (from the photos) pretty high quality compared to some of the other cheap gear on that site. I'm gonna get the trailstar knockoff first and see how it looks before I decide to order that inner, but if anyone has a solo or duomid (they have knockoffs of those too) that inner might work well. I'll certainly report back if I get it.

Indeed, I am also quite wary. Hopefully it isn't a waste of $60 bucks! I will let you know, it takes forever to receive, looks like ususally about a month.oldranger wrote:I reviewed the product descriptions on the site and they seemed kind of weird.
