I am still cranky at myself for ripping it, at least no-one witnessed my lack of grace as I tripped and fell

They're 5 section (so they pack short like the tent), adjustable (very helpful yet rare in folding poles), carbon (light), and 11mm (stiff) and with a custom tip to fit perfectly in the grommet. I am on track to have those available in a few months, although getting a bit late for the summer season in Australia. I think they are 3-4 months out. I am working on the prototypes now and then production takes 2-3 months.

Good question. I've used mine in some pretty awful weather (and held up brilliantly) but nothing like the warthurs could spew upbumper wrote:Just a quick question,has anyone used the X Mid on the Western Arthurs and how did it go?
I’m tossing up between the X Mid and my trusty Macpac Microlight.
Thanks in advance.
