Well put by Peter

I used to have a TN ultra quasar and it really was superb in strong winds, didn't change shape at all, plenty of head room and 2 entrances, but... pack size was pretty big (for carrying up a mountain) and it was quite heavy at just over 3kg. It's also a pitch inner first which was fine most of the time, but not in heavy rain.

I now use a Hilleberg Nallo 2 or a Golite SL3, none of which are as stable as the Quasar in high winds but capable of handling most forms of British weather.

Pretty much depends wether you're prepared to carry a heavier lump for the extra strength

Travel lunch (available at Cotswolds) do a pasta in cheese sauce which is really tasty

1... Exped Downmat UL, haven't used it in warm conditions yet so may buy a lighter weight less insulated one when the time comes

Bargain!

I already have these and love them
