Impressive for the dry but i would like to see him do it in a force 10 and stood in the middle of a mud bath at Ice fest Whistle
Ive seen him do a few videos, I think he is the same guy who put his roof tent on top of his truck single handed Thumbs Up

Wise words...

TBH.. the pack up and weight were the two main reasons for getting rid of mine.

The pack up definitely Prof, 2 years ago I was packing mine up from ice fest in the driving rain and sleet on a bed of mud. I don't know who was the muddiest me or the tent, and would it fit in the bag ? Would it hell Twisted Evil

Ukraine 

The first time I used mine (one of the very many camping bits and bobs I've owned), I folded the wrong side in and lifted it slightly as I was doing so (No more than 1ft off the ground), I ended up snapping one of the hinges Big Cry

needless to say, once fixed it was soon sold on Laughing

They were also never 30 seconds...

OK, the main bit of the tent was 30 seconds, but then you add the sides, the front, the fly.. Put the beds in..

etc etc etc..

Ukraine 

It helps if everything is warm, as the tub folds really nicely. Anything below about 25 degrees and it's too stiff to fold properly and that's what takes up the room in the bag.
 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

He sounds like he knows what he’s doing. Let’s see if he can do it with a sleeping bag and carp bed left in it then. Snigger
