PITCHING, CARE AND
STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
FINDING THE IDEAL SPOT
Look around! Select a site that is flat, clear of rocks,
›
twigs and other hard or sharp objects.
Look down! Find a position that will drain well if it rains.
›
Look up! Check that nothing can fall on your tent.
›
(Stay away from tree limbs, especially Australian gums)
TIP: if you arrive to camp early and the sun is shining
bright, consider pitching your tent closer to dusk.
UV exposure deteriorates all fabrics and keeping your
fly out of the blazing sun will maximise its useable life.
POSITIONING THE TENT
Goondies are tapered rectangular in shape – the head end is
›
wider than the foot. The webbing on the fly and inner is colour
coded for easy identification, with grey webbing at the head.
For the optimum pitch, position the tent so the prevailing wind
›
hits the tent foot or corner.
PITCHING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Start by pegging out one or
two inner corners to stop the
tent inner blowing away. Put
the tent bags in your pocket
so they don't fly away! Insert
pegs into the ground on a
45° angle, pushing them all
the way in, don't use your
foot to push in pegs.
2. Put together all three tent poles carefully, making sure
each section is fully inserted into the next.
TIP: Do not flick or release the pole while holding the end
section this can fracture the section ends.
3. Take the two long
poles and cross them
over the inner, placing
the ends into the
corner eyelets.

4. Clip these poles together using the top hub. There is a clear/
translucent hub* on one pole and a black ring on the other.
*Non-structural hubs may differ slightly between models.
5. Place the shorter ridge pole over the top of the two long
poles. Clip to the inner using the ball (on ridge pole) and
socket (on inner) joint.
6. Secure inner to poles
using the clips.
7. Secure the top inner hook
to the higher long pole
(not the top ridgepole)
this maximises internal
height without creating a
wear/rub point on the fly.
