If you use the wall in the forward position, the part of the ZIG that would have been attached to the wall has clips in each corner that alow it to drop i.e. lay flat on the ground. They supply another groundsheet for the porch area which can be placed over the dropped edge of the ZIG thus preventing a tripping hazard.

When the wall is in the back position all 4 sides are fully "ZIGGED".

Yes you do lose some of the ZIG benefit (only on the front) when the front wall is forward, but I think it is a very small price to pay fot the additional flexibility the moveable wall provides. Are you thinking of buying one?

We've had a Cabanon Bella Vista and a Cabanon Laguna, frame tents which both have the moveable front wall facility. I just wondered how it would work with a ZIG tent. Does the front wall panel have a storm flap, which you can tuck under the groundsheet when used in the forward position?

John,

In theory, the additional groundsheet being slightly over-sized should not matter unless I pitch in a ditch.

However, if it does rain heavily, then potentially there could be water between the two groundsheets, which could make packing them away a messier job.

That's where I am coming from.

Bobach,

The Palamos 6 allegedly should be back in stock in December according to another thread. It may be worth contacting Obelink to register your interest for this tent, so that they can contact you when they have stock.
