Like its sibling the Nallo, the Nallo GT is the perfect all-around, all season tent for hikers, bikers, climbers and paddlers. The GT version simply has an added, extended vestibule – a handy spot for gear storage, socializing, and food preparation, especially on longer trips. Families with children will enjoy the extra space with very little added weight. The Nallo GT’s low weight is a result of both excellent design and fabric technology. Straighter side walls afford maximum usable space, while the higher front/lower rear pole configuration puts greater volume up front while reducing weight at the same time. The Nallo’s ground sheet and Kerlon 1200 outer tent fabrics are supremely light, yet still amazingly strong. The Kerlon 1200’s tear strength of 12 kg/26 lbs is not only considerably stronger than most other lightweight tent fabrics, but it is also stronger that many “standard” or “heavy duty” tent fabrics, as well. The Nallo GT is simplicity itself to set up. Its three poles and full pole sleeves are easy to handle, and the longer pole and corresponding sleeve are colour-coded for foolproof pitching. Four pegs are sufficient to stake out the tent in most conditions, but should things turn stormy, there is a plethora of pegging points around the tent for increased stability. Staying comfortable while riding out the storm is no problem, either. By opening the vent in the vestibule entrance panel and pegging the foot end with the attached short guy lines (which raises the outer off the ground), you can create a cross draft, minimizing condensation build up. In addition, the inner tent entrance is backed with mesh for even more flow-through. FOr 2006, Hilleberg has added a second vestibule entrance which allows you to open one or both doors for better ventilation. The outer tent now also has an improved rear vent that also helps keep condensation to a minimum. |
