Thanks for putting out these videos. These are great teaching aides to watch with my boys, then go out and do it
I like the videos very much. Suggestion. Showing how to take the tent down and pack it up. Seems like a simple thing, unless you've never done it...like with the Quarter Dome 2.

Just a heads up, this doesn't work very well in windy conditions. My suggestion for viewers is to set down the ground sheet and weigh it down with the poles. Lay the tent down on top of that and throw stuff inside to weigh it down. Now you can stake out the tent without it blowing away. After that you can connect the poles and the tent won't fly away in the wind.
Love the education! Thanks!
An excellent primer, REI. Please keep them coming.
LXC : backpacking tv is a good one to
Great video, is this guy lines reflective and are they available separately?
Thanks for help
so very simple but so very important
This voice artist is fantastic! She's just wonderful. Who is she?
My personal advise is to put the foot print strap above the tents strap it will be way more secure..
I’m a scout, and they finally are letting girls become Eagle Scouts. I’m with my troop and we’re going ziplining and I need to learn how to set up a tent 😂❤️
Hufflepuff Gal you’d think an Eagle Scout would know how to set up a tent but ooookkk
Wait what ...
@@maggie937 She didn't say she is an Eagle Scout, just that she's trying to become one; that's why she needs to know how to set up a tent
ok now do a video about packing away your backpacking tent bc i’ve had a tent in my living room for like a week with no idea how to properly pack it up 😬😬😅
Your main website, that included this video says
"Though many campers will orient a tent with the smaller side facing the wind for reduced resistance, it’s more important to place the side that has the strongest pole structure facing the wind."
while the video voice says
"position your tent so that the strongest side the end with the most pole structure is facing the likely direction of the wind it's especially important to avoid the wind hitting the broad side of the tent and turning it into a sail."
OK, there's agreement on strongest or most pole structure, but it's not that clear what that means.
Also, you suggest there's a problem with the smaller side facing the wind for reduced resistance but isn't that exactly the same as avoiding the wind hitting the broad side of the tent?
My tent has sleeves to put the poles in and it’s confusing. Someone help
My tent is too tight when I put those pole is that normal? The 4th pole one can't even get inside the hole
Why is Anton Krupicka setting up tents for REI?
What are these two knots used here? Bowlid and truckers hedge?
Bowline and trucker's hitch
Charles Brom Lamp Thanks.
They mentioned the clove hitch too
probably the least controversial video on youtube
