Used my Double Rainbow for the first time this weekend. Above treeline. Very calm weather in the day but savage wind overnight. Wind was hitting the large side panel of the tent and at one point it did collapse. Had to hold it up with my hand until the wind calmed down. Jumped out, reinforced ridgeline with trekking pole inside the vestibule as designed and it held up really well for the rest of the night. Was impressed by how well shoving a trekking pole in there worked. Also, a total palace for one. Zero regrets with carrying a shelter that's 2x heavier than what I'm used to for that much comfort and space. Still only weighs 1010g with the carbon tent poles and 6x stakes...
