My neighbor has that tent as a beginner tent for his boy. He seems to like it. The tee pee tend a big plus. He waterproofed it and has good things to say about it. Very nice video you are the best spokesperson for camping equipment and i have and still use you as my camping instructor. Happy fathers day. Spend time with your children I hope they are well. I have so much camping gear now and I now camp in all kinds of weather the worse the weather the better I like it. Thanks for all the knowledge you have taught me. I have changed how I camp and I am getting pretty good at it. I don't want to stay home. I bought a big bucket of the emergency food that I take packs of food to use. Just to add to the food I carry. I am 72 years old and I have the time and money to camp and I am using you as my mentor. Happy fathers days enjoy your children they are a 🎁 great video. This show me that even at my age I can except change and camp be safe and enjoy the nature the good lord has given to us. Be safe, and happy

There is also a Lanshan1, and it is a double wall tent with a mesh inner. The Lanshan1 Pro is a single wall shelter. That's the difference. You can seam seal without the syringe. I've had other tents that needed to be seam sealed and I use a 50/50 mix of silicone and mineral spirits and a foam paint brush as an applicator. You set up the tent and paint the seams with the mix and it works great. More work, certainly, but it is very doable.
Thank you, I wish for the price of the tent it was actually usable right out of the box, unfortunately it needs to be water sealed

Hi, thanks for the video! Here are 2 explanation notes: 1. - seam sealing - it’s not seam sealed by purpose… here is an abstract from some article about “why are ultralight tents not seam sealed by manufacturer”, tldr: it´s not possible - “…You don’t normally have to seam seal ultralight tents made with cuben fiber or silpoly (polyurethane coasted silnylon) because they can be seam-taped by the manufacturer. Silnylon tents can’t be seam taped because the fabric is too slippery and seam tape doesn’t stick to them.” So you need to use “sil glue” it manually. And it forces you to build the tent before you actually use it on the trail ;) 2. - why PRO - they also have a “regular version”, which has a separatable inner mesh tent, is havier, bulkier and a little bit smaller. PRO version is more like “allinone” version. Very roomy in comparison to regular version. Thanks! :)
Thank you for the information. The tent leaks in the rain every time and the pro is really unnecessary in the name

@@Lonewolfwildcamping Hi! Yep, sure that it leaks (I know I have 3 versions of them :-D ), when it can’t be seam taped during manufacturing process. It’s just not something, that can be improved, it’s by design. You must do it on you own. That’s it. And yes, PRO in name is not needed :)) It could be whatever else, but it’s pro :) Who cares ;) Nevermind, thanks for great videos! :)
I got the Khaki color Tent a few days ago, with the full door zip, did a few mods to it, I like it more then my old 6 moons. I watch here and other videos to learn more about how it sets up. Thanks for making this video.
They can't use tape. Both sides have a silicone layer. The tape won't stick. I agree that sealing it was a hassle. I love mine too. I upgraded mostly for the extra length. I am 6'1". Nice review
Dude I love how you show us gear you actually use. That's got to be the most compact tent I've seen when it's packed up. And you could use this thing under a plow point tarp it looks like.
This is the best budget and preferred ultralight tent I own. I replaced the tent stuff sack and stakes bag with dyneema bags. This is comparable to Six Moons Designs Lunar Solar but a $100 more expensive. I hope you’re as happy with your lanshan as I am. …Happy Father’s Day
Also, the pro is different than the regular (aka the Lanshan 1). The regular Lanshan is double wall whereas the pro uses lighter material that is stronger but is now single wall only.
Wow that’s awesome. Definitely a great one to take hiking long distances. I dig it. Even though my tent is just over 3 pounds I wish it was packable that much. I couldn’t go without my hot tent but that is really cool
Great review! I believe the reason they call it the Langshan 1 Pro is to differentiate it from the regular Langshan 1 which is a double-walled tent with a separate mesh inner. Also, based on my very limited research, the material they're using basically makes the seam tape useless(unlike the non-pro version which is seam-taped) which means they will have to seam-seal by hand using silicone I guess? I'm not really sure but I would certainly be willing to pay extra for factory seam-sealing. It's such a pain to do especially when you live in an apartment 😅
Sounds like it may have been made for the dog days of summer with no rain in site. But that's when we we have those rear occasional thunder storms that will flood you back home
Happy Father's Day Jeremy (Mr. Coffee). Nice light tent, but Jeez seal the darn seams. It's not cheap. Not a tent I would purchase however. Nicr review.. Love my Tigris Outback. No comparison weightwise. This tent way lighter. Enjoy the day with the family. 🙂
Don't forget that Shires Tarptents and various other ultralight manufacturers require seam sealing and is often a $35 + option on checkout. But you're right about the 'pro' moniker. It reminds me of a cheap K-Mart brand we grew up with as kids...'Pro-Sports'. All their gear was anything but Pro 😉
To be honest Lone Wolf, is easy to seam seal a tent. Time consuming yes but with a small amount of finesse its easy as. But as you said...the word 'Pro' is a tad weird. Perhaps they mean 'Pro' as in if you're a professional ultralight hiker then they've given the option to seam seal or not...rather than adding 50 - 100grams of sealant which a lot of ultralighters would baulk at (not one of them btw...just lighweight here not ultra weeny).
You can't hot press seam tape a silnylon tent, having to manually seam seal a sil tent is pretty standard for all ultra light sil tents, it's not unusual at all. Seam tape only works on cheaper heavier materials, that's why you get it on cheaper mainstream tents from a sports store or supermarket.
The moniker Lanshan 1 pro is to distinguish it from the original Lanshan 1 which is double skinned. The pro is a single skin. Some might call it a hybrid because of the mesh at the front.
Thanks so much for your excellent review (and mentioning the difference between the 3 & 4 season tent). The price for the Lanshan 1 Pro (3 seasons) is $170 right now. On top comes another $56 tax & other import related fees. Would you still consider that a fair value for this tent? I don't own any trekking poles either though may wish to use one (or two) on more difficult hikes. (I'd rather buy a pair than a "flimsy" carbon pole.)
No pressure but… when you gonna make a video about the new Pomoly Traveller - hexagonal .6mm stove? Looks like it might be the ticket for the truck camper rig yeah? Love yer channel always and forever. For reals.
You can now get both the pro 1&2 in coyote tan. 👍 Happy Father's Day. The "pro" only differentiates between the single wall "ultralight" version and two wall heavier version.
@@Lonewolfwildcamping The ones I see on AliExpress are branded 3F UL. However, 3F UL will make it in almost any color you want, branded however you want. I asked about muted colors when these first came out and that was what the company rep told me. But this only applies to company sized bulk orders.
Perfect alternative to the Dan Durston X-Mid. And unlike the X-Mid you can actually buy this thing in stock. Someone needs to get someone an X-Mid for review.
@@Lonewolfwildcamping The double sided silnylon can't be taped for seam sealing. It has to be manually coated with silicone to seal the seams and that doesn't make any sense to do when making the tent. It only takes about 20-30 minutes to seal everything yourself, so no big deal. All double sided silnylons have the same issue.
You can't use tape on sil-nylon, it can only be seam sealed with silicone. I would think one of the reasons it's not factory-sealed is the cost: it'd probably be twice the price, as to be done properly it needs putting up, sealing, then left up for at least 12 hours.
@@Lonewolfwildcamping absolutely better, it's a proper pain in the bum doing it yourself (particularly if you don't have a garden like me lol). It'd also add an absolute fortune in cost. Even Hilleberg don't seam seal their sil nylon tents, although they say their stitching doesn't need it. Same was said about my Nordisk tent, but I still gave it a quick go-over with sealant. It's time consuming, but it's not the most difficult job in the world, if you have the room to pitch and a nice day. I wouldn't go near that syringe though. Just get some clear silicone sealant, a little white spirit to thin it down an a paint brush. On that tent I think it's about an hour's work then 12 hours drying time?
Can you fold the vestibule up underneath itself with the door closed like on the Lunar Solo? in other words, the doors only go down halfway and it creates a porch.
Thanks for the video and review Jeremy. You're right, that's a real bummer that the fly isn't seam sealed. Like you said, now you have to worry if you sealed everything thoroughly. What were they thinking?? But otherwise that looks like lightest compact tent I've seen yet. And nice color too! 👍🐺
Hey Jeremy, just watched this review and have been interested in this tent. Looked on Amazon 🇺🇸 and it claims to be fully seam sealed and waterproof, but does not come with ground sheet or syringe. Wonder what's going on. Great review as always.
@@Lonewolfwildcamping Yeah everything looks same. Good to know as it costs the same as my Marmot Crane Creek 2 man freestanding tent and weighs 1.81 k total. 3 times more but includes pole stakes etc
Silicone spray is not an appropriate sealer for the seams on this tent. You need to use an actual curing silicone polymer. You can buy seam sealer like this, or simply dilute clear silicone caulk down in solvent (gasoline works) and apply with the included syringe. That will fully seal all of the thread holes for a very long time. Silicone spray is a low molecular weight silicone fluid that, whie repellent, will not actually seal the thread holes.
If you're going to do a review, at least take the time to learn about what you are talking about. Silnylon fabric can't be seam taped, the tape doesn't stick to the fabric. So no point in rattling on about how it should be seam taped. All silnylon tents are the same, they aren't taped. Otherwise a good review.
I am not going to spend that kind of money on I-10 that is not waterproof.. you are going to be spending at least another $100 on a can of camp seal spraying the crap out of the tent if not maybe toucans of the stuff you are going to be spending at least $200 trying to waterproof it.. nope nope no just go out and I would probably get a large tarp to put over the whole thing..
Well to seal it costs about $15 , but I do agree it should be factory water sealed especially at this price point. Hopefully they add seam tape next time 😊
@@Lonewolfwildcamping yes I agree because you're going to be emptying at least two cans of camp dry on that tent to seal it.. or you're going to be going out and getting a very large tarp to wrap around the entire tent.. for that kind of money I want it already waterproof

Its pretty awsome, almost lose it in the forest 😳🌲😊

I purchased the Lanshan 2 pro (brown) this season and it's an awesome tent! Love the packability and the weight savings.
Awsome
