TrailStar

Owned a silnylon Trailstar; wind is about the only thing it has over the X-Mid, and both have seen serious alpine wind.

Has a Trailstar and really likes it for its pitch flexibility and wind performance, though there is a learning curve and few inner-tent options.

Loves their cuben TrailStar; its only downside is finding a big enough area to pitch it.

Bought a TrailStar on a whim and it is now their favorite for wild camping; when the wind swung 180 degrees, sleeping across the back kept them dry and they have never had to move the door.

Has had the TrailStar in both cuben and silnylon and lived in one for six months on the AT; after 7,000+ miles they find no more livable, spacious, stormworthy shelter for the weight.

Loved their TrailStar in poor, windy UK weather pitched low, but found the usable space not all that amazing for its large footprint, and sold it to keep their DuoMid.

Their TrailStar is the best shelter they have ever used: works great solo, light enough not to worry about, with space for bags and shoes, and has fit three people at a squeeze.

Has owned a silnylon TrailStar and hiked part of Colorado with it; with the line locs removed it is a 17 oz tarp that scales well with weather and remoteness.

Loves their TrailStar's weatherproofing, but the footprint is huge and was a pain on the PCT.

Damaged the corners of their new TrailStar while pitching it the first few times; the inner layer of fabric tore at the seam.
