I love this sun shield. A must-have!

2 years ago

I love this shade structure. It has provided me with valuable shade on countless desert trips where shade is nonexistent. It’s easy to assemble, lightweight, and pretty sturdy as long as it’s set up correctly. A must-have for desert trips or beach days to avoid the sun.

Yes , I recommend this product

Already held up in a major thunderstorm!

8 years ago

I set up the Rendezvous 200 in our backyard to practice for our upcoming 6 week road trip. It was easy to set up. We switched out the cord for cam straps since weight is not an issue on this trip. We had purchased additional poles so we used those. A major thunderstorm, enough to cause localized flooding, rolled through about 30 minutes after we set the tarp up. The tarp was standing and the ground underneath was dry when the storm was over. We are looking forward to using this tarp on our upcoming trip.

great sun/rain protection but stakes need to be improvised

5 years ago

I use this shelter for rafting, it is a life saver in rainy conditions and exposed sun situations. It is made of high quality material and can be configured into shapes and heights to fit your environmental conditions. It is not easy to set up with one person but if you have a group it goes up quickly. Reading other peoples reviews the common theme seems to be the stakes are inadequate and I would second that. To improvise I made 12 inch wooden sand stakes, once these are pounded into the sand the tarp is not moving even on windy days. Sand stakes were made on a table saw using some old wooden flooring.

Good and close to great

8 years ago

Used this to stay dry on recent trip. The pros... Easy to set up. The tensioner are great. The storage of line is well designed. The fabric is durable. Room for improvement... Tough to use in the wind. We were camping on gravel bars with few trees. When firmly anchored, it performed well although multiple lines snapped and had to be replaced with paracord. The included stakes did not hold well on gravel bars and had to be supported with big rocks. Even when supported stakes would pull out of gravel. I will be looking for a better way to anchor in gravel and will replace all the lines.

Great protection--rain or shine.

8 years ago

I bought this last year right when the new design came out. I've used it as a base camp at trail races and on multi-day river trips. Using oars, tress, etc. will give you more height when you pitch it. Have not experienced a true high wind situation yet, but so far it appears bomber.

Wing 200 shelter is amazing

8 years ago

I recently purchased the Wing 200 Shelter. i had thought about purchasing the 120 Wing but it was out of stock. The Wing 200 turned out to be the perfect side for my recent car camping/mountain biking trip. The first day it poured down rain and the next 2 it was close to 75 and sunny. Welcome to Spring in Central Oregon. I set up the Wing 200 over out table and it covered that are perfectly, giving us enough rain perfection the first day and sun protection the other days. This was easy to set up, great coverage and we stayed dry and protected from the sun...all in the same trip!!!

Yes....

So, this is a River Wing in nature, and improves on other models that have been out there. I love this canoe camping. Typically you can increase the overall height by taping an 18 inch stick to the main poles, making it easy to walk under and cook under. It is not rocket science. The advantage is that this set up is small, and light compared to many others. Im trying to imagine a scenario where the rope or stress points break as mentioned below??? I'd think the blue fabric would tear before any of that happened. I've used the Rendezvous in windy conditions on the John Day, the Willamette and other rivers in Oregon, and in the high desert in Nevada where the shade was awesome. I think this product does more than once should expect.

Perfect for group shelter from rain or sun!!

8 years ago

I have used the 200 Wing Shelter for many years. Much of this is guiding and leading whitewater rafting/camping trips on the Salmon River ""River of No Return"" in Idaho. Trips are during June-October, and encounter every weather imaginable. Often rain and high winds. The Group Shelter is ideal, erected in many fashions or designs over a months period. Sometimes for sun protection at lunch. Often to shelter the kitchen and cooking crew during dinner and breakfast. Guides spend many nights sleeping under the shelter!

Great for beach and base camp

9 years ago

We bought the 200 in May for a family beach trip and it worked great. A little more difficult to put up with just one person in the wind on the beach but with two people, it is a piece of cake. We bought two adjustable poles and sand stakes to go with it and are glad we did. The regular stakes won't hold in the sand and the added height made it comfortable for about 10 people to sit under. Also use it as a shelter when camping and have found it to be great in the rain and in keeping the heavy morning dew away.

Outstanding sun protection at the beach

7 years ago

Took this to the beach for sun shelter and it performed flawlessly - even in the face of wind up to 20mph. I used snow stakes buried horizontally in the sand as ""deadmen"" and I was amazed at how stable this was in sustained med-high winds. Other people had those big metal ""skeleton"" fold out shelters and they were taking them down due to the wind while the Rendezvous just stayed steady in the wind. Highly recommended for beach sun shelter!
