Additionally, mesh pockets and a gear rope add extra storage options for camping equipment, gear and more, while built-in mesh mosquito nets ensure ventilation to where it is needed most. Robens Wind Test The determination of the performance of a Robens tent in wind is based on the knowledge and technique available to Robens at the time of testing. During the test they register the maximum (MAX) speed impact a tent was subjected and the average (AVG) wind speed at which structural instability occurred. This may appear as a broken/deformed pole, or the collapse of the tent and subsequent return to shape when the wind drops. At no point was any form of catastrophic failure experienced up to the maximum wind speed. The MAX speed for this tent is 140 km/h, and AVG 130 km/h.
