The Goondie 30D tents have flies made from 30 denier polyester, a slightly heavier and sturdier fabric than the 15 denier series. These gorgeous orange numbers are not only easier to spot than the lighter version, they have higher UV resistance, making them better suited for four-season use.

The Goondie 1-30D is a practical, lightweight, one-person tent that doesn't sacrifice comfort for the sake of saving a few grams. There is plenty of room to sit upright to get changed, as well as storage for gear in both vestibules. This tent is suitable for four-season use, and the freestanding construction and sturdy floor (no footprint required) make it easy to put up. The overhanging vestibules keep the inside dry even when the fly door is open, while the mid-size YKK zips are easy to reach. All this, and it weighs no more than an apple! Well no, not quite...

The Goondie tent series has high-walled, bathtub floors made from hard-wearing, 100 denier PU-coated HT nylon – so tough that a footprint for under the tent is not needed. The vestibule can be rolled halfway up, creating fantastic flow-through ventilation even in the wet, bringing comfort in warmer conditions. When it’s cold outside, the full nylon inner adds insulation while the durable, water-repellent finish (DWR) prevents condensation dripping inside the tent. The Goondie is freestanding, needing a minimum of two pegs to hold the vestibules out. (Two ‘mega pegs’ are included, as well as four alloy pegs for the guy lines.) When not in use, the four storm guys tuck into handy little pockets built into the reinforcing tabs.

(The 30D polyester fly has greater UV resistance and is slightly heavier and more durable than the 15D nylon.) Colour-coded fly tapes indicate fly direction.
