Terra Nova Laser Competition Review
Here's a Terra Nova Laser Competition Review for all you Adventure Race, Mountain Marathon and and Ultra Light Backpacking buffs out there. We decided to do a Terra Nova Laser Competition Review because it strikes us as a great tent for the money. With a minimum weight of just 1 lb 14 oz, the Terra Nova Laser Competition Tent will be light on your back as well as your wallet. The Competition features new 8.55mm DAC Featherlite poles that save approximately 10% on previous poles and a complementary waterproof hood that guarantees a waterproof night. The tent fits 1 person comfortably, but there's room for two if you are willing to make it. The Laser Competition pitches flysheet first and the inner can be left connected, so it is exceptional quick to erect. The transverse porch creates more usable space than a longitudinal porch and provides excellent shelter from the wind as well as a large entrance. You can buy this Terra Nova tent for a price of $300. Terra-nova.co.uk.
