Semper Fi! I use a carabiner for the zipper pulls, nite ize is the brand I use as they have a spring loaded latch on them. I have a loop of 550 para cord to keep them altogether so I don’t lose them when I am breaking camp. I have the same arb setup, love it. So far, I haven’t had any winds like that. But good to know what to expect. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
Take the tags off the zippers replace with small string loops use a small padlock (type you use for suitcase at airports) & that’ll stop the zippers spreading in strong winds.. hope this helps, good video by the way..
Hey, I'm Pat. Thanks for sharing your experience with the ARB tent. I can't believe that zippers didn't split and the whole thing did not rip apart in that wind. Looks great in that it held up. That is definitely a lot of debris you had inside the tent but compared to outside it is doing wonders. I can't believe you had enough wind to move the trailer off the blocks. That's crazy. I am considering the purchase of a small trailer and looking at an outside tent extension for it. This video makes me think ARB is the way to go. Anyway, I will check out more of your channel more. Thanks again, Pat
@@nomadmac2001 Working on a video about that today. I have reviewed Bushwhacker 10HD, Fee Solo Flav, the inTech Luna and Flier, a Riverside RV Retro 509 Jr., a Sunray Sport 109, a Rockwood GeoPro 12RK and looked at a ton of videos on other channels. I'm talking to someone right now about a deal. But not positive about it yet. Watch my videos and you'll see what we get for sure. I am not selling the 5th wheel, I have too much invested in that and pan to use it for a while, but I want a toy to enjoy behind the jeep for the next few years. Pat
Thanks, I was nervous about the change but it rolls off the tongue better. I've been through two strong (Nevada) windstorms so far and it's holding up. Tonight and tomorrow will be the snow test. I'll do a complete review soon. Sure miss you guys. Be blessed.
No rips, tares or structural damage. The real complaint I have is the velcro straps that attach to the upper poles. They're junk, should have a video out soon on how to deal with them.

Hey Pat, I don't think you'll be disappointed. Thanks for the comment and let me know what camper you get.

I like the new name and look of the channel! Nasty storm, but a good test of the awning and room.

How did it hold up? Looking at getting the same setup
