Hi, just opened the new Gelert Horizon 8 tent up looking for instructions on pitching and there are none!!

Anyone know of any tips or videos to help us before we try pitching for the first time?

Try youtube. There are hundreds of videos on putting up all kinds of tents, Frame, Outwell, Tunnel.  You might just see your tent on there.

Cheers !

Having never put one up before, I thought the instructions on the bag were a bit basic, tried youtube but not much luck.

Although the instructions might seem a litle brief, it is really that easy to put up. First time OH and I just had quick look at instructions and  then put tent up.

Start in the middle black pole then work your way out. We pegged the corner to keep the shape and then readjusted as necessary when tent was erect.

 

Hope that hepls.
