I have the wolf walker tent (lone rider rip off) has heaps more room in the sleeping area, only downside is not having an opening at both ends (only opens at the rear of the sleeping area and at the sides) but as a person that's over 6 foot tall with a bad back it's a life saver not have to get as low to get in and out of my tent.
Great video mate, I'm using the Mongar 2. 2.1kg not sure measurements but packs up small enough to fit in side bag. Set up, plenty room internal for a short arse like me, 210x135, I use a 100mm self inflating mat. Side entry both sides like the howqua's. It was honestly a coin toss between them.
Good review Pete. I honestly thought that Lone Rider would be big enough for the Helinix Cot. I’m of the opinion I would use the bigger tent for a base camping and the smaller tent for touring. It has to be big enough for the creature comforts as you get older like the Helinox Cot. I run the MSR Elixir. It’s a 3 person but perfect for 1 large old guy.😂

Thanks for practical demos of the three tents Pete! Im using the Kakadu II at the moment, cheap, easy setup and enough room for me for now.
Glad you found a tent you like.
Good review Pete.

Yeah I'm getting too old for the cramped tents now.
