Product description
Helsport's lightest 2 person tent.
This tent has always been dedicated to reducing weight. Every part of the design has been considered with that in mind. This year we added another challenge: to improve the usability of the tent so that it is not only light, but also easier to pitch and more comfortable to use. The pole configuration has been changed to increase internal volume without making the tent any longer. It also takes half as long to pitch - we know, because we timed it!
The new Ringstind Superlight 1 is a compact, yet comfortable and functional tent that is easy to pitch yet surprisingly stable in windy conditions.
The Ringstind Superlight 2 provides additional width and two completely separate doors and vestibules for greater comfort.
The best part is that we’ve been able to add all these details and extra features and yet reduce the weight even further.

— Show originalExperience with a tent is a few nights' hike in Lapland in September -22. The tent is light, the whole package weighs 1.5 kg on its own scale. I am 178 cm tall and the sleeping space in the tent was just right. For people over 180 centimeters, it might be too tight, have to hold onto the inner tent by the legs or the head. Especially the fabric of the inner tent on the main side seems to come too close to the face. The ventilation of the tent is not bad. Every morning the inside of the tent was thoroughly wet. The weather was between +1 and +10, there was rain and snow. Compared to a similar 2-person tent from a competing brand in a neighboring country, where the ventilation opening can be opened completely with a zipper if necessary, the ventilation works significantly better. The seat height in the tent was also too low for my size, I couldn't sit straight. When coming out of the tent after the rain, the outer fabric flutters against the inner tent and wets the inner tent. Of course, you can try to shake the fabric from the largest amount of water, but it is difficult without getting wet when coming from the inside. A surprising amount of water remains in the fabric of the outdoor tent after the rain. (It doesn't run off like a goose's back) the fabric should be treated with a spray before use. The tent's protective bag is on the cramped side. You have to figure out how to fit the tent with its arches and wedges in the same bag. (arches and wedges can of course be packed separately) the wedges do not have ready-made "removal ropes" that make it easier to remove the wedges from the ground. I think the tent is an okay choice, but nothing special. The price is high considering the characteristics of the tent. Apparently lightness has been marketed at a high price. Let's add more pluses
+ lightness
+ easy to set up
and cons
- ventilation (big minus)
- low
- cramped for a user over 180 cm tall in a lying position
- accumulation of water in the outer fabric
- realization of the doorway
- tightness of the protective bag| Overall rating |
— Show originalI already use this one person tent. Then you have plenty of space for yourself and luggage, and yet it is super small and light. Material and finish are top, comparable to the well-known Swedish brand. Ventilation is quite good for such a small tent. With my 180cm I can sit in it. When it rains, you have to open the flysheet carefully so that the drops do not enter the inner tent. This will not be the case with a somewhat steeper side of the inner tent, but then you will also have less space in it.| Overall rating |
— Show originalThe tent has been tested in almost all kinds of conditions and I did not come up with anything to criticize about the tent. Spacious for single use, cramped for two, but separate entrances and private abscesses make use uncomplicated. Easy and fast to set up. — Show originalAn ideal tent for people taller than 195 cm, you can sleep comfortably without resting your head and legs against the walls, there is a lot of space in length. It is best to use a tent for one person; only an additional child can comfortably fit. A backpack and shoes can be comfortably placed in the vestibules, or inside the tent at the feet - there is enough space.Brand
