We have a Peaklander Matlock tent, the elastic in four of the pole broke, unfortunately the poles have got mixed up in transit.
Does any body know how many poles are in the full length, Red and Blue poles
Unfortunately we do not have a back garden big enough to try that.
The problem is, we are camping in Wales on Fri - Sat - Sun - Mon off next week. I live in Chesterfield unfortunately i work away from home, not coming back till Thurs evening, so no time to try your suggestion. This is why i wanted to know how the numbers that make up a full length of each individual pole.
Keith, I don't know how many sections for each pole, but what you could do is take new shockcord to the site with you, lay the tent out there, and rethread the poles then. Once you've got the tent laid out on the ground and pegged down, it shouldn't take long to sort out.
