Our family tent (not Kodiak Canvas) got destroyed in Sturgis last year. Been our steadfast through all kinds of weather in Yosemite. I was watching a thunderstorm come in and just before I took shelter from the first big drops a very heave gust 50-60 miles an hour crushed the tent. Bent and broken poles and blown-out door, but dry so I crawled in till morning. The next morning next to me were 3 Kodiak Flex-Bow tents that were standing strong!!!! I was heartbroken about losing the family tent but had no question what to shop for. Here is a picture of the test run I put my new Flex-Bow through last week at men's retreat in Aptos, CA. It was the called "the palace" by the other jealous campers. It was a great setting surrounded by Redwoods alongside the creek. It passed the dry run and I am ready for the next thunderstorm in Sturgis South Dakota.
