With the bedroom already attached to the flybridge, assembly is very quick. Its interior space is smaller, but it retains 2 doors and 1 front apse.

Booster poles (integrated, 1-strand poles) at the 4 corners increase the useful volume in the tent.

1 side pocket for gear.

Architecture, hoops and sardines

Light & frost-resistant aluminum pole: 7001 T6 aluminum Yunan SD70PF Ø 9 mm.
Optimized square pegs: "anvil" head, extra-thick body, making them very strong and light (7075 T6 aluminum).

The single pole and 4 integrated strands form a non-self-supporting tunnel. This structure makes for a very light tent, but one that needs to be secured to the ground, and won't stay upright on its own.

Assembly / disassembly

Extremely fast assembly and disassembly. The canopy and chamber are pre-assembled. Simply slide the pole into the pole sleeve. Dismantling is just as quick.
To store the tent in its cover, simply fold the tent on itself to about the width of the cover, fold the pole into a bundle and place it on the chamber or fly, then roll up the whole compactly to slip them into the cover.

Waterproofing

Forclaz tents are laboratory-tested: tent erected, 200 liters/m²/hour (3 hours, equivalent to a tropical downpour). They are also field-tested by a panel of users.
20-denier polyester (PES) rainfly and 40D polyamide (PA) ground sheet are made of coated polyurethane (inside) & silicone (outside).
Seams sealed with heat-sealed tape.
Multi-component chamber combining breathability, wind protection and condensation control.

Wind resistance

We test all our tents in wind tunnels, in a wind tunnel on a turntable, to expose each side of the tent to the wind.
To guarantee wind resistance, the tent must be properly erected, stretched without excess, with all guy wires properly deployed around the tent. This will ensure that the tent remains habitable even when the wind speed is measured at 70 km/h close to the ground.

Our tents are certified by the independent CSTB laboratory in Nantes.

Ventilation and condensation control

Mosquito netting for ventilation and water-repellent fabric to protect against condensation and draughts. There is ample ventilation at the front of the tent, as well as ventilation at the feet.
To limit condensation inside the tent, it must be correctly pitched, with the canvas stretched taut, but not excessively so. Use of ventilation and good air circulation limit humidity inside the tent.

Seasons

3-season tent: your tent will protect you from the harsh weather conditions you may encounter in spring, summer or autumn. It will withstand small snowfalls, but is not designed to withstand heavy loads on the structure.
In the event of snow, remember to shake your tent regularly to remove any accumulated snow from the ground, and to avoid putting too much weight on the tent structure.

Repairability and after-sales service

As designers, we are concerned about the durability of our products, which is why all our tents are designed to be repairable.
You can find spare parts (poles, chamber, etc.) on the shelves or in the workshop of your store Decathlon, on decathlon.fr or at support.decathlon.fr
In the event of a problem, don't hesitate to have your tent examined in your store Decathlon.

Repair kit (ferrule, patch): 20 g

Resistance

Your tent is designed for touring bivouacs, so it is not intended for static use in direct sunlight.
We advise you to avoid leaving your tent in direct sunlight as much as possible, as ultra-light fabrics can be sensitive to UV rays, which can weaken them.

Warranty

5 years.
