my tent is a Sierra Designs Flashmagic single walled version of the flashmagic. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> It weighs 51 ounces in its stuff sack with 5 stakes. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Its a double hoop tent. Hoop tents are generally lighter than free standing tents and since you have to stake it anyway - why the push for free standing? It doesn't matter, except they are easier to set up on the floor of a store without stakes. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
