Quick overview

The Slingfin CrossBow Four-Season is Slingfin's lightest winter-optimized tent, and has been substantially updated for Winter 2020/2021. With a breathable nylon canopy and numerous venting options, the CrossBow Four-Season protects its occupants against spindrift and dust while keeping condensation to a minimum. Slingfin's patented WebTruss, the orange fabric covering the poles in the first two pictures of the inner tent, gives the CrossBow Four-Season an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, aided by DAC's new 10.65mm PL poles. The CrossBow Four-Season is perfect for backcountry ski tours, snowshoeing excursions, and fast and light alpine climbing. Because of the dust-proof canopy fabric and excellent wind resistance, the CrossBow Four-Season also makes a fantastic tent for desert camping.

Thanks to the WebTruss, the CrossBow pitches easily in high winds. Unlike pole sleeves, which can lead to pole breakage when pitched in windy conditions, the WebTruss allows you to fully set up and tension the pole structure before clipping the tent body to the poles. This system provides much more strength for the weight than traditional clip-style tents. With internal guyline compatibility and the OutRigger attachment, the CrossBow can be further strengthened against harsh winds or snow loading using the included cord and your own trekking poles.

Details

The 2021 version of the Crossbow 2 features Slingfin's brand new custom 20D sil/sil ripstop nylon with hugely improved tear strength and no PU. It also has larger diameter DAC 10.65mm PL poles, with one of the best strength-to-weight ratios of any pole on the market. Redesigned WebTruss clips make leaving the WebTruss attached to the tent easier, and the updated, larger door shape eases entry and exit. Slingfin have also made a variety of refinements to the smaller details of the tent to make use simpler and more intuitive. It also can be used with DAC Twist Clips (included) instead of the WebTruss in less extreme conditions for a weight savings of ~85 grams (3oz). The new CrossBow also features a through-vent in the fly and tent body with both mesh and ripstop options for buggy conditions. Also more pockets!

The CrossBow can be used with a footprint, which can also be used to set up the CrossBow without the tent body for an ultralight fly-only pitch.
