The Goondie 3 Nylon is ideal for cooler weather when you need to accommodate a few mates or a tribe of kids.
Designed for bushwalkers, the full nylon inner increases warmth through minimising drafts, keeping you warm in the chilliest conditions. Micromesh windows on both doors allow for excellent ventilation and cross breezes. This tent has a generous, square floor plan and plenty of headroom, with lots of sprawl space. Internal pockets and an add-on mesh loft increase versatility, while two large vestibules are great for sheltered cooking or stowing gear.
Features
- Generous interior offers room for three adults or a small brood, with enough room to sit up, move about and still feel comfortable for an extended period of time, such as in bad weather
- Rectangular floor plan maximises space without jostling
- Two vestibules and two entrances make access easy: there’s a door each
- Two spacious vestibules easily store large-capacity bushwalking rucksacks, critically important in poor weather
- DAC poles in a crossover design give an architecturally solid structure to ensure reliability in high winds and rough weather
- DAC technical features create a secure, reliable hold that’s quick to set up and pack down
(DAC Ball Cap connects the inner and ridge pole, connected to the DAC SQ Ring sewn inside the fly) - The ridge pole is designed to overhang the bathtub floor, creating a protective alcove to stops drips from rolling off the fly into the tent
- DAC 10.25-millimetre diameter poles are stronger than most while finding the sweet spot that balances weight, durability and strength
- No troublesome structural pole hubs makes a fundamentally stronger tent with easy set up and awesome reliability in the field
- DAC twist-clip component allows quick and easy attachment of inners to poles without fiddly pole sleeves. The clips are extremely tough and durable thanks to their flat shape and moulded construction, and can be clipped on or off with one hand.
- Fly is seam sealed with tape in the factory so you don’t have to do it. The fabric has a sil/PU coating and a high waterhead, giving you protection in all conditions.
- The inner walls are made from lightweight 15 D nylon with a light DWR treatment for improved warmth and condensation management
- Nylon inners feature multiple pockets on the side walls, so you can easily store (and find) your equipment
- Micromesh window in the door allows you to manage the internal temperature efficiently, triangular in shape to maximise ventilation without catching in the main door zip
- The thick, robust and highly waterproof floor is coated with polyether urethane (PeU): it doesn’t wet out and is extremely resistant to mould, mildew and hydrolysis
- The single-piece floor doesn’t have a mid seam, removing a major water access point and improving durability
- Colour-coded webbing used on the fly and inner encourages quick and efficient set up in any conditions
- Ventilation vents have steep access to allow air flow but not wind-driven rain
- When you roll up the fly door a gutter is formed, naturally catching and channelling rain away from the tent entrance
- The Doorman’ is a flat loop sewn into the seam, used to hold the inner door open to make a bigger entrance
- The torch pocket in the ceiling creates a handy, easy-to-access storage area
- Internal loops allow you to hang a clothes line or mesh loft from the ceiling
- Guy lines and lightweight adjusters are simple and effective, with reflective rope and storage pockets to keep things neat and tidy
- Fly and inner bagged separately for easy packing in your rucksack or sharing between pals

Tent Options
Flies- There is one fly option for this tentwith a silicone finish and fully factory seam sealed.
- 30D: made from slightly heavier and more durable 30-denier polyester. These gorgeous numbers are not only easy to spot, they have a higher UV resistance, making them better suited for four season use.
Inners- There are two inner options forthis tent.
- Nylon: the full, breathable nylon inner has DWR treatment for better insulation and protection from condensation. Suitable for year-round use.
- Mesh: this inner is made mostly from mesh, allowing fantastic breathability and air flow. It is perfect for warmer, more humid conditions. (It is also a bit lighter than the nylon alternative.)
