Scarp 1 weight

[roysta]

Has someone got an accurate weight for this tent with a solid inner and the cross poles?
is it around 1.8kg or just over 2kgs?

Main Pole 183g
Fly 799g
Mesh Inner 366g
Solid Inner 423g
Pegs + Bag 119g
Cross Poles 345g
Stuffsack 20g
Tyvek footprint 136g

Total with solid inner plus cross poles = 1889g

Total with mesh inner no cross poles = 1487g

With cross poles a couple of extra titan pegs +tyvek ground sheet I get up to 1955g

Crosspoles are only necessary if snow camping. Otherwise 2 guy lines are perfect for strong wind.

Edit you should include a groundsheet though

Or if you want a free standing Tent especially on platforms.

The reason for my question on this one was would I go and buy a Scarp 1 or go with my Soulo.
I don't think the difference in the end was wide enough to warrant spending $400.

I bought my Scarp based on price - if I could afford a Soulo I would have bought that instead.

Keep in mind they are (essentially) both 4-season shelters. There would be little advantage in having both.

I'm hearing you Strider, the only reason this came up for me was because someone told me the Scarp 1 was 1.7 or 1.8 and I thought ok, that's 580g less than my Soulo, which is a good margin.
But, when you add in reality with a few other things the margin closes and that 2.368kg is actually ok knowing you have a ball tearer of a tent.
