The Ascent 2 is a 2+ person tent that is built to handle rugged 3-season weather conditions. It is one of the first tents in New Zealand with a tent fly featuring Stealth Seam Welding Technology.

This cutting-edge technique combines ultrasonic edge-joining with high frequency radio welding of tape seals, making the seam up to 42% stronger than a standard twin needle taped seam. The weld will provide water tightness for the life of the tent fly, unlike a taped seam, which generally does not. Until now this technology has only been available on heavy fabrics.

Like all Domex tents, the hub frame design means that the tent is quick and easy for even one person to set up and being free-standing gives flexibility to erect the tent in all types of terrain, with the option of moving site before pegging the tent down.

The lower portion of the inner tent uses breathable double Ripstop Nylon panels for durability and the upper section has fine mesh panels for increased ventilation while keeping insects out.

The Ascent 2 is packed with features including a Ripstop Nylon tent floor, air vents for increased airflow and less condensation, generous vestibule space, four large storage pockets plus a lantern hook.

We recommend using the footprint that matches this tent (an optional accessory) to protect your tent floor. It will also make packing up easier and quicker. Any mud and debris will be confined to the footprint, meaning a quick wipe down of the condensation on the bottom of the tent floor is all that is required before rolling the tent up

• Easy to set-upThe hub-dome design with its inter-connected pole sections enables quick and easy set-up by one person.
• Free-standing designGives flexibility in sites with vegetation, uneven, wet or rocky terrain. Because the tent supports itself once the poles are inserted, it is able to be shifted easily (by one person) before it is pegged.
• Easily-identifiable pointsFluro webbing and zip toggles on inner tent plus luminous-fleck on outside zip, guylines and peg loops allow for easy identification in poor light conditions.
• Tent fly with Stealth Seam Welding TechnologyStrong, watertight seam will maximize the lifetime of the tough ripstop nylon fly.
• Tent fly air ventsIncreases airflow and reduce condensation. They can easily be closed if necessary.
• Inner tent has a combination of mesh and nylon panelsAchieves a balance between ventilation and durability. Mesh keeps sandflies, mosquitos and other insects out.
• 2 vestibulesProvide generous gear storage space outside the inner tent. They also provide extra weather protection and allow better airflow and ventilation.
• Inner tent storage4 pockets (2 double, 2 wall) + hanging lantern hook.
• Optional footprintProtects the tent floor and makes packing up much easier, quicker and cleaner.
