[SYD] NEW GoLite Shangri-La 3 ($200 Delivered)

[ninjapuppet]

RRP: $275 USD + delivery
Selling for $200 AUD ALREADY INCLUDING delivery

I was so impressed with the performance of my golite shangrila 5 last year that i bought the 3 man version SL3 for going solo.

However I got a MLD Duomid for Christmas. Having 2 tipi tents for solo use doesnt make sense, and it would be rude to sell your presents away hence the SL3 is up for sale. Its brand new with tags attached and has never been pitched, not even in my lounge room.

In my research before buying it, I have heard first hand experience that it has handled severe winds over 60kph, and take massive dumps of snow. Below are pictures i took from the net showing how pyramid tents in general can offer so much space and their snow handling capabilities.
Considering their benefits, I feel that pyramid tents are under-appreciated in Australia. I could not find 1 pyramid tent in any of the Kent street camping stores.

Below are my mearsurements

tent body: 680g
stuff sack: 33g
pegs + sack 72g
Pole: 380g

I usually hike with trekking poles so the tent pole wouldnt be carried. I recomend the addition a lightweight bivy or groundsheet since the tent doesnt come with the groundsheet or inner nest. You can buy them online.

Alternatively, i can sell a 1 man net tent from Bear paws if required.

I forgot to add that its the yellow version.
I love bright cheery colours for winter tents, and subdued colours like green for summer tents.

Big shame. I recently was looking at this tent as I wanted something for two that could take three at a pinch, but also light enough for one. I wound up buying a three man wilderness equipment plus a separate 1 person tarp tent for solo stuff. Sorry. I would have snapped it up a few months back.
