Hello folks-
I got the new TT Moment DW this past week and wanted to take it out and see how it performed. Mother Nature blessed us with some fantastic nasty weather which was a perfect setting. I had the tent seam sealed at Tarptent so it arrived ready to go. On my scale, the tent weighed in at 35.8oz (including the seam sealing). I did not get the optional ridge pole to assist with winds and snow so on my way to the the tent site, I picked up some parachute cord and a few extra stakes. They sure came in handy. The winds were gusting up to 30mph and it poured rain for 5 straight hours. The great news is the tent withheld to the strong winds and not a single drop of water came into the tent. I liked the ability to adjust the floor width and raise/ lower the fly on the ridgepole.
