Help

We are seasoned campers and have an outwell wolflake 7 in polycotton so we are used to big heavy tents

We have just purchased the shangri la in the hope that it would give us the lovely comfort we are used to with our outwell (which we love to pieces) but with the ease to put up which would mean we would go for weekends.

Anyway. All the signs are good. - had it up in the garden & love it already.

PROBLEM - unable to repack it! So my request is for help - there must be a knack which we are obviously missing. But we simply unable to get it back in its bag. Can anyone offer any sensible advice?


Don't forget to leave a review of all tents you've used, for a chance to win fantastic prizes

New! Please upload a photo of your tent to the Tent Showcase!

Buy a bigger bag? Sorry not very helpful. On tents with poles I would say pack poles separately.. but not applicable!
Enjoy your new tent I'm only slightly jealous as I sit inside mine to escape the sun! Didn't think I'd say that this year!?

Yes, the car is bigger than the 'van.

The key is keeping the doors open and folding the tent so when you roll it you are rolling it towards an open door. Also make sure all the air is out of the airbeam, do this by squashing the air out of the beam from the other end to the valve.
