SlingFin

We’ve gotten a lot of new followers over the past couple weeks, so if you are new here, welcome! We started out as a tent company prioritizing innovation with the harshest environments and most ambitious expeditions in mind. Now, we make a wide range of products, spanning from ultralight thru-hiking shelters, to high camp bivvies, to Everest-style base camp group tents. We really nerd out about tents, figuring out ways to add the most strength for least weight. We are stoked to welcome all to the SlingFam.

We are collaborating with and Backpacker Magazine for a Summer Gear Giveaway worth over $17k in gear! With 10 different prize packages, there are loads of chances to win some great gear, including our SplitWing UL Tarp! Head over to the link below to enter.

It's officially WindSaber season in the alpine. In some ways, the WindSaber is a quintessential SlingFin tent. It has deep expedition pedigree, is strong as an ox, and uses some innovative features to achieve a very livable design without a significant weight penalty. This is certainly one of (if not the) the strongest sub-5lb tents on the market, built for those whose adventures never compromise.

Summer backpacking season is upon us! When you want to push your camp above treeline for the best views, the Portal series is your best bet.
