The X-Dome™ 2 is an ultralight freestanding tent developed from our focus on efficient design to be more spacious, protective, and user friendly. It combines our weight efficient and simple X-Mid floorplan with a structurally optimized pole set to provide unprecedented space and protection for the weight. The result is a generously sized and fully freestanding two person shelter that is highly liveable in tough conditions for just 2.7 lbs (1.25 kg).
The X-Dome 2 is a generous sized, true two person shelter that is noticeably more spacious than comparable tents. That spaciousness starts with the floor, which has a width of 52" (130 cm) for the full length so it can easily accommodate two wide pads. The floor length is suited for taller hikers with an 88" (224 cm) length that is made more useable by the near vertical end walls.
What really makes the X-Dome 2 spacious though is the taller interior height combined with a shape that preserves that height over more of the tent. The interior height of 43" (1.1 m) is 3 - 6" taller than comparable tents and the full length crossbar extends this peak height over to the doorways (creating vertical sidewalls) while the geometry extends the height towards the ends (creating near vertical end walls). The result is 20 - 40% more volume than comparable tents including outstanding headroom and shoulder room - allowing partners on two wide pads to comfortably share the tent.
The dual vestibules are also generously sized at 9 sq ft (0.83 sq m) each. Each vestibule can easily fit a large pack while having extra room for cooking, shoes, and wet gear.
