The good news is that it can be done in about 5 minutes...
This is how I do it :
Peg down the corner first (yes I know that it is a freestanding tent...)
Insert the cross pole (awning pole) Doing it the other way is also known as "the wrong way"...
Assemble the poles (outside the tent)
Kneel inside the tent and insert the pole in the far right corner , than keeping the pressure on that and bending the pole in insert the tip in the close left corner.
Do a couple of the velcro bits up to keep the pole there.
Now insert the tip of the other pole in the far left corner and do the same as the other.
