Guys, I checked with 3F just to be sure: All Lanshan tents, except for the Pro series, come factory sealed. There is no need to seam seal any Lanshans that you purchase EXCEPT for the Lanshan Pro tents.
That's awesome and weird. I guess Pro means DIY hahaha!
@@BackcountryPilgrim They sure are. And we ended up with major malfunctioning from the Pro. In rainy weather, the drops of rain bounce on the tent and make the condensation fly everywhere.
Hands down the best video on how to pitch this tent,its sooo detailed thank you so much
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad I could help! 😁
Nice job. Better than the manufacturer’s instructions for sure
Simply perfect. All I need to do now, is walk to a area and set it up. Hopefully, it doesnt do what my last one did - take flight when I was in the amenities, lol
😱 That's gotta be a good story!
@@icebearhikes I set it up, made sure everything was pegged out, then went to freshen up. When I returned, tent wasnt there By this time the wind picked up and as I looked round, I saw something in the air. I realised that its my tent, lol. I took chase but as the wind was rather strong, I couldnt catch upto it and it started to go up the hills. Of course, it went over the hills and I thought its gone forever now. I did catch upto it, but at this time, it was stuck in a tree and the outer was all ripped. Lost it either way. Thats 2 camping trips ended in disaster. Ive only had 2 trips, lol. 3rd time lucky in April/May. 1st time, I did set it up without incident, however, when we were all in the pub, the heavens opened and rain that we couldnt see hand in front of us. Got back to camp and a tree had fallen onto my tent. Me and tents dont work, but its not gonna stop me
@pauladams6969 OH my GOSH!
Very thorough intro, review, and instruction. You may be the only one who got Lanshan 2, three times. Shows how much you are happy with it.🤙⛺🏕
😄 It's funny to think that I've had 3 Lanshan 2s! I do really like them. They are very reliable tents.
I have bought them twice too. I love them. I have a 3 season and a 4 season inner.
I love that we can change the inner tent to suit the season or area of camping! 👊 Not too many tents that are this versatile.
This is by far the most comprehensive explanation and clearest instruction for setting up the LanShan 2 I have seen. Excellent, thank you 🙏🏻
Thank you! I'm so glad that I could help! 😁
@@icebearhikes what is the condensation like in both the 3 season & 4 season inner tent please.?
I haven't had any condensation in either of them. I've only had a condensation problem with the Lanshan Pro model, which I no longer use because of condensation. I love my Lanshan 2!
@@icebearhikes 🙏🏻 Thank you
@@soomay9855 You're welcome! I'm happy to be able to help! 😁
The rhythm of your video is really appreciated! You take your time and explain everything meticulously.
Very good work. Thank you !! :)
Thank you for the kind words! 😁
Thank you so much for a great how-to video for a complete beginner! After watching your video, my 2nd attempt in my back yard did not result in tears and frustration and actually looks pretty good and taught! It's not perfect but I'm gonna keep working on it until I'm confident I can set it up on trail!!! Thanks again!!!
Thank you for the kind words! Welcome to the #Lanshanclan ! 😁
If I didn’t already have three tents, I’d have one of these.... hmmm no harm in just one more. I like these!
They really are great tents!
Thanks for a really helpful video. I’ve been using just about every tent variation for 30 years but this one baffled me - I ended up with a 12” gap under each vestibule! Thank you!!
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm so glad that I could help! 😁
Your officially now the pro at setting this tent up. Your going to get a ton of views on this video over time. Very thorough job👍👍
Thanks, WebMaster! I learned from the best! ☝ #lanshanclan !
Great video. Your other video saved me as I totally undid the knots on the guy lines. One question, after setting it up for the first time, the gap between the floor and the sides of the tent seems much smaller on your setup than mine. Any tips to get it lower as to let less wind in?
You can adjust the height to fit your needs by shortening or raising your trekking poles. I usually set my tent up with my poles at the length I hike with, then lift or lower each side as I need for the weather. Then readjust the stake out lines until you get it tight. I hope that helps! Welcome to the #LanshanClan ! 👊
@@icebearhikes thanks I'll try that. I have one more question! My tent came with 2 extra guy lines and there is loops on the side of the tent. I've looked at pictures and other tents also have a loop around the bottom of the tent but mine doesn't and I notice yours doesn't also. Did you put on extra guy lines or not?
I did not use them. They are to extend the sides for taller campers. I'm only 5'8", so it wasn't necessary for me to use. I do have a taller Hiker friend, at 6'3", who uses them every set up. It depends on your specific needs and preferences.
@@icebearhikes OK thanks for the response. Spent my first night in my lanshan last night. The wind was stronger than forecasted, the ground was rocky and I could hardly get pegs in. The Lanshan stood strong and didn't have a drop of condensation in the morning. Love it, thanks for the help!
That's so awesome! It really is a great tent- I've never had it fail me. I use shepherds hook stakes on most trips. I've seen friends use larger groundhog stakes, and some with V stakes. The stakes that come with the Lanshan seem small/short. If I'm setting up on rocks, I use larger loose rocks on my stakes to hold most of the weight tension. I'm glad I could help. Thank you for the kind words!
Thank you for making this video. Just picked up my first Lanshan 2 (also in green) and was able to set it up with more knowledge than I woulda had, and definitely didn't untie any knots I shouldn't. 😃
That's awesome! Welcome to the #LanshanClan! 👊😁 Thank you for your kind words!
This is even better than your 2018 video which is excellent. Well done!!!
Thank you! 😀
Hello IceBear, the Lanshan 2 is a really good tent. Very good set up instructional video. Take Care and Keep Exploring The Outdoors.
Thanks, John! I love this new tent!
great video, thank you so much, I have trouble getting my lanshan to stand up straight and this had really good tips and detail. Senior hiker sent me your way.
Thank you so much! Senior is the best! 😁
thanks for sharing this set you lady !
very calm voice, clear instructions and great video !
keep up the great work :-)
Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊
Very good video and instructions. In a bad gullywhumper, you can protect any tent by putting your new poncho over it. Good Luck, Rick
That is an excellent idea!
Thank you for this easy to understand explanation!! I really like this tent but did struggle with how to set it up...it's easy once you know how!
Thank you so much! 😁 I'm glad I was able to help!
Very nice, detailed guide, thanks for showing every little detail. Super helpful!
Thank you! 😁
Just like my "Flame's Creed". I really like this tent.
It's great! 👊
Oh and thank you for posting the instructions...I am always looking for tips. Idid seam seal it even if it didn't need it.
Are the guy out points sealed on the new one? I know the 2018 one wasn't. I love my free standing tent but I sure keep drooling over the weight of these Lanshans.
If they are, its not visibly noticeable. I had NO leaks though with a rain test. I love my freestanding tent too, but the Lanshans just pack down so small; it's unbeatable how much room they save me.
I checked with 3F just to make sure: only Lanshan Pro tents need to be seam sealed. Any Lanshans other than the Pro series come factory sealed.
Excellent!
Can you pitch just the mesh net portion only? I never see anybody doing that!
Yes you can! That's actually a really great video idea! 💡👍👍
The cords look narrower then the 2019 and 2018,bigger tags on the zipper and longer tabs on the side guylines. I prefer the shepherd hooks too. Good job!!
Thank you! 😀👊 I believe you're right about those differences. The shepherd hooks are just so simple yet efficient! 👍👍
Very good video. I think I could set one up now even with my limited experience.
That is the color I ordered but Covid caused shipping delays. I got a refund. So they changed the zip pulls from string to solid ribbon with their name on it, and changed the guy line color. You can't beat this tent for price,, weight and functionality.
I like this color soooo much better than the yellow. It really is a great tent!
Most helpful video! Thanks for sharing!!😘👍
Thanks! I'm glad I was able to help!
Nice and comprehensive review.👌👍
Thanks, Senior! 😀
Nice how to video. It took me a good 5 or 6 times setting mine up before I finally got the perfect pitch. Senior Hiker 77 really helped with my issue. I do use the side guidelines and he has a great trick to keep the creases out of the sides when you use those guidelines if anyone else may have that problem. I cut out the little inside mesh pockets to save a little on weight, since ounces lead to pounds, right? LOL
Senior is wonderful! Walker also has a trick with the side guylines, if you're using them. He uses the fishing pole Y holders from Walmart to hold the lines up higher. Very creative. I suppose those mesh pockets would save some grams 🤔. I never thought of that.
@@icebearhikes Yes I follow Walkers World as well and have seen his vids. Girl I have my pack dialed in and don't want anything over 23lbs, so whatever little thing I can take off or take out I will. You can call me a gram pincher.
Senior Hiker and Walker are both cool dudes. This video is the best setup I've seen though!
@@BackcountryPilgrim Ice Bear Hikes has several Lanshan tent setup videos that are excellent too if you haven't seen those.
Thats a sweet looking tent . great video presentation kid!!
Thank you, Jim! 😀
Great job! IceBear well done vid, thank you.
Thank you so much! 😀
awesome, thank you
Thank you so much.
I'm so glad I could help! 🙂
I have always wanted to try the Lanshan...but I think I will stick to my hammock
Hammocks are very nice too! I'd have one if I wasn't a side sleeper.
Thank you
How was the old one damaged?
I accidentally packed it up with a tent stake still in the corner pullout. 😬🤦♀️ Totally my fault.
Thanks for the reply
Sorry to hear about the accident
Have you ever had the Lanshan out in the rain? 🌧
Definitely. I've had it out in many storms. This version holds up wonderfully in rain, with no seamsealing necessary. The Lanshan Pro version does NOT keep me dry, so I have discontinued using it. It's a single wall tent though. This one is doublewall.
Thank you
I made the decision a few days ago to order a lanshan tent. I was VERY close to ordering the Pro. I'm glad I didn't! I also ordered a green one 👍 does the 4 season inner make much of a difference in the cold? I should receive my tent Thursday. I cant wait!
The big difference between the 3 season inner and the 4 season: the 3 season is almost entirely mesh, the 4 season is almost entirely silnylon. I wouldn't want the 3 season in winter, or the 4 season in summer. The 4 season does block a lot of wind from coming in, but it is not "warm". Im perfecting my winter sleep system currently; that's where you get the warm from. Hope that helps! Thank goodness you didn't order the Pro! 😬
@@icebearhikes good to know. Thank you for the reply! Either you work nights too or I'm keeping you up with my comments 🤣
😂 I was thinking, "what's he doing up at this hour?" I work EARLY morning shift.
@@icebearhikes 🤣 that makes sense. Have a great day!
@@Blue-Collar-Radio Thanks! You have a great day too! 😁
Omg thank you
Excellent. Again.
You have to seam seal the pro
Yes you do.
What was the failure on the 2 pro
It gets a ton of condensation inside for me. I can't seem to keep it dry. During a rainstorm in the Smoky Mountains, several friends of mine had to tear down camp at 2am and hike 6 miles out to their trucks because two of them had the Lanshan Pro take on rain. They were soaked within the first half hour of the rainstorm. The trip had to be cut short for them to dry out their gear and recoup.
@icebearhikes2130 they know the pro series does not come pre seam sealed you either have to order the service when you order or do it your self.
@billevans9231 Yes. All of us seamsealed it before using it. The Lanshan 2 comes pre-sealed, but the Pro has no weatherproofing, from the factory.
What happened with the Pro?
Three of us had major fails with it. It does not do well in rain.
@@icebearhikes What kind of major fails? The fabric ripped? The seams leaked in the rain? Excessive condensation? Ropes broke?
@@commanderknowledge8360 Excessive condensation on the interior splashes when rain hits the tent. Seam sealing does not fix this. It's similar to if you put water on a drum, then strike the drum. Water everywhere. Senior Hiker 77 and Following Walkers World both had to abandon a trip they were on due to this.
@@icebearhikes
Sounds like the tent was set too high. I've seen the pro tested in weeks of rain here in the uk with no issues. I've just ordered the pro so fingers crossed 😬
I guess that’s some intense packaging lol
😂
I untied the fuckin knots!! FUCK!
It's okay... I have a video for that too!
