  • Hi,
    Has anyone used the Lanshan 1 tent?
    Just wondering if it is possible to use a tarp pole rather than a walking pole to pitch it. Will it be strong enough?
    And I guess I will have to bodge something to attach at the top end of the pole to spread the force and stop it from poking through the fabric?, like a walking stick ferrule, unless there is something specific for that.

    Old Squash ball??

  • I seem to own one of these - I bought it from @ghostface who seems to have gotten a custom pole made - it looks like a fairly normal tent pole and works well.

    Tent is great by the way! Super fast to put up and take down, and the inner mesh tent is perfect for pitching on its own in warm weather.

  • Yes tarp pole will be fine. If you look on eBay there’s someone making custom carbon poles for a very good price. I have one and rate it.
