The Ultimate Christmas ‘Get Away From It All’ Gift

Press Release / 11.11.2014

For a Christmas gift with a difference, here’s the ultimate in adventure kit for seriously keen outdoor types – the Guinness World Record-breaking lightest tent in the world, from innovative outdoor specialists Terra Nova Equipment.

For the discerning buyer who insists on the best of everything, Terra Nova’s Laser Ultra 1, weighing in at just 495g (1lb, 1oz) – that’s less than a tin of beans and a few Mars Bars - is the lightest double wall shelter in the world.  Designed for activities where ‘fast’ and ‘light’ are key, the minimal weight enables adventure racers and ultra-light backpackers to achieve optimum performance as they conserve vital energy for the activity itself.

Created from ULTRA fabric, the Laser Ultra 1 boasts titanium tent pegs and carbon fibre support rods, and can be pitched in an estimated five minutes.  Designed to sleep one person, it can accommodate two for overnight adventure races.

Price: £800 from www.terranova.co.uk and specialist outdoor stores.
