Nemo Morpho – blow up tent!

October 9th, 2009 by Gareth

I’m off to the Brecons this weekend, and Keith gawd bless him, got an advance copy of the tents we are stocking for next year, the Nemo Morpho. I am now officially super excited about this as we pumped it up in the back garden of the offices to take a look.

Front of the tent with side mesh opening.

Back of the tent.

Side ventilation.

You may have gathered that the special feature with these tents is that the poles are air poles or air beams, you blow them up. Now before I saw these, I was worried about the robustness of the air poles themselves. Having seen them in the flesh now I have no such worries. They resemble two half tires going around the tent and are just as thick and solid. Design wise it has some lovely touches with a collapsible inner and a really flexible front mesh that can be opened from the front or side. It’s also huge and at just over 2kg it looks like my new fav lightweight two man tent.

I’ve got a couple of photos for you to take a look at above along with the short video clip below, I’ll let you know how I get on this weekend – next week!

    I bought one of these from the states earlier this year and have used it for cycle touring. It is a lovely tent and has so far behaved faultlessly. I have the footprint and the pawprint for it which is slight overkill but very comfortable. My only gripe would be getting it all back in the stuff sack after use. It will be great if you start stocking them as I have tried with little success to get a couple of spare bladders for it from the states.
