A "rain fly" keeps the rain out of the tent and fits over the body of the tent. So what your saying is that it's a "single wall" tent that needs no rain fly in inclement weather??? The "Ground sheet" of the tent is called the tent floor.
Nice video, under ideal conditions in the sunshine. Roll on summer. :) I have just bought one of these tents because it appears to have so much more than the Banshee. I like the lines of the X2 and I note that yours seems very well cut. i..e it 'hangs' well. Also, the inner does not sag. Have you altered/ pinned it at all the get the good fit? I've only put mine up in the living room, using safety pins in the carpet. :) I aim to do a spot of cycle touring with it. Would appreciate your view.
Ohhh my beautiful tent. Really nice video mate. I spent weeks and weeks researching for a quality tent and had to have one what fitted in the base of my Karrimor Sabre 60-100. This was it. I only wish they made it in a darker olive green but thats here nor there. Fully recommend this tent to solo backpackers its so small and light and has never let a drop of water in even in thunderstorms. When im not hanging this is the boyo for me without doubt. Well done sir, cool vid.
Thanks for this good video. I´m going to the highlands where you better have a good tent with my Avior X2 in a short while. Feel more confident with it after watching this video. :)

If I had Ray's bushcraft skills, I would have made my own tent using a handful of moss and a twig. :-)

Definitely too small for 2 people!
I spent 2 weeks cycling around France with my mate. We used a coleman pictor X3. Easily big enough and loads of storage space in the front porch.
Also has a door at either end for easy access and a side door in the porch. Probably a bit heavy to carry on a hike though!

Thanks for this, how has it held up for you?

It is a strudy tent, but no use for 2 people, definitely the x2 is for a single person. If you are over 6ft it might also be a squeeze lengthwise.
Folds up nice and small as well. So I am happy with it.

Might still be a bit tight for a child as wel as an adult!

Good video and I like the two doors.. Probably only good for one adult and a child.

Not sure what you mean. There is an inner sleeping mesh with sewn in ground sheet and an outer flysheet

Yep it is a good tent, I really like the side opening as it makes it easier to get in when all your gear is stashed in the front vestibule.
