🌪️ Wind Resistance? The Hub's Got You Covered 🌪️
We've had a few questions lately about wind resistance and what kind of weather you can safely camp in with the Hub. So, here’s a quick rundown based on our own experience.
A couple of years ago, we put the Hub to the test on the Welsh coast, facing winds of 90mph with gusts over 100mph. It wasn’t exactly pleasant, but the Hub held its ground. The only issue? A single guy line came loose because a plastic O-ring snapped. That was it.
Without storm poles, the Hub’s poles would flex under such extreme conditions, but they wouldn’t break.
So, what does this mean for you? The Hub can handle more than you might expect. However, the real question is what kind of weather you want to camp in. We don’t recommend setting up in a storm like that, but if you do find yourself in unexpected rough weather, rest assured that your Hub will weather the storm.
Stay safe out there!
