Hello,
Mojo,
Finally a review about the Meteor Beyond, thanks for posting. I am thinking of buying one. But I wonder, is the back of the tent very low, sloping?
I mean, is there a risk that your feet touch the innertent, (and flysheet) in spite of the impressive length of the innertent?
And how is the porch? I did not find any good pictures, just the marketing ones. How is the clip system that attaches the innertent to the poles?
Does the colour correspond with the images on the web, or is it lighter, darker? (I will use it for wildcamping, so I cannot have a bright orange 'expedition' (sounds so impressive!) tent. If possible, could you post some pictures? I am sure a lot of people would be interested in this tent.
Ok, thanks

Hi,
try to answer your questions as best I can.
Finally a review about the Meteor Beyond, thanks for posting. I am thinking of buying one. But I wonder, is the back of the tent very low, sloping?
I mean, is there a risk that your feet touch the innertent, (and flysheet) in spite of the impressive length of the innertent?
Back of the inner tent doesn't slope too bad, can sit upright on the ground sheet almos to the back of the tent. I can sit on camp bed comfortably at front of tent.
Wouldn't have thought there would be too much problem of touching inner tent if you positioned your bed ok, there is a fair clearance between inner and fly so don't think that would be a problem either.
And how is the porch? I did not find any good pictures, just the marketing ones. How is the clip system that attaches the innertent to the poles?
The porch is quite small, really only suitable for gear storage or cooking, it has a door on one side with a double zip arrangement so either top or bottom of door canbe opened. The clip system is pretty good, this helps pull all the poles into tension, there are also velcro tabs to attach fly to poles and quick release buckles to attach bottom of fly.
Does the colour correspond with the images on the web, or is it lighter, darker? (I will use it for wildcamping, so I cannot have a bright orange 'expedition' (sounds so impressive!) tent. If possible, could you post some pictures? I am sure a lot of people would be interested in this tent.
I also plan to use it for wild camping and colour is fine, not quite the 'pea green' in the photos more an olive drab type colour.
Sorry can't post photo's at the moment as I've 'lost' my data cable plus will need to put it up first, still may do in future.
