Well, the missus and I have just returned from a great week at Crowsnest, Filey. We just love our Diablo 900 (Not the Diablo 900 XP) Could anyone please tell me the correct lie out of the guy ropes as the instructions are not that clear. We pitched the inner first and made sure that the ground sheet was flat and taught, as per instructions, and checked that all of the zips worked ok. However, once the outer was in place and pegged out the bedroom zips were difficult to operate. I had the bedroom guy ropes in-line with the poles, should these guy ropes be placed towards the back.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your advice, will try various angles with the guys, as you suggest. I have contacted Vango to see if they have any ideas, I won't hold my breath though.

Cheers

Although i agree with ""MOJO 19 and ahhh..fresh..air!""  that the lines should be in line with the poles  i do move them when or if the wind changes to o

aford best stability the only way to keep the pod zips free is not to overstretch and pull to tight the inner when setting up  and purposely leave slack that will be taken up when tying on and pegging out.

works for me and i dont have any problems any more
