COOL!-You must do it!! The pics and videos with it would be fab and much appreciated!!

So who's going to organise an Evolva meet-up then?

I will be now I know it's there Just got to wait for OH and son to get back from London and then I am off up the city!! lol

So when can we expect the video's and pictures numbersix?

One aspect that has me stumped, is how to thread the guy ropes on the twin anchors, so that you can properly slide them. They've got me stumped. No matter which way I thread 'em and peg 'm, I cannot get them to tension by sliding. Just have to place the pegs with the ropes under tension and leave them at that.

Any helpful photos, videos, drawings would be welcomed.

I found if you keep the rope from the highest tag straight through the metal bit to the peg the little metal bit clamps itself to this rope...

it took me all weekend to work this out...(when something bugs me...it bugs me)

hope this helps

Numbersix,

I think you are the Evolva expert - so if it would help, we'll review whatever you've created and might just be able to add a few comments!

Thanks for the answers on the double guys.

Like Mark, usually, when something like that bugs me, I stick at it until I fathom it out. But when the rest of your friends have pitched and are half way through their BBQ and your still trying to sort out guy ropes, it gets a bit embarrassing.

Now I've got the tent home, I can't be bothered to get it out of the bag just to look at the guy ropes. Suppose I could get the chef annexe out and try to fathom it.

Hi folks

New to this forum, but from the sounds of it, I'm not the only Evolva owner having problems with guys/ runners(bowsies).

I've found that the thickness of the supplied red/black guys are a little too large to run freely through the bowsies.

I have overcome the problem by using a wire peg under the loop of guy that runs through the bowsie, giving the guy a round surface to run over and aiding in the tensioning of the guys.

I am going to replace the guys on our Evolva with dayglo lines so they are easier to see.

Hope this makes sense.
