WANDERFALKE Trail 2, 20D ripstop fly with a 40D floor review

The one tent in this group that publishes both water columns and both deniers, and labels its weight as a total rather than leaving it bare.

The bottom line The most completely specified tent of the nine: both water columns, both deniers, and a weight that says what it counts. What it withholds is the geometry, so buy it on weatherproofing rather than on interior space.

What this listing puts on record

A total weight of 2.0 kg, a pack size of 15 × 42 cm, a 20D ripstop nylon outer and a 40D nylon floor, a 4000 mm water column for the outer and 5000 mm for the floor, welded seams and corners, covered zips, break-resistant aluminium poles, guylines described as tear-resistant, a Smart-Clip pitch system with a stated five-minute pitch, and a mesh inner tent.

Both halves of the water column

This is the reason to read this listing before the others. 4000 mm on the outer. 5000 mm on the floor. Two panels, two figures, each attached to the panel it describes.

Everywhere else in this group you get one number and no panel, or a number for one panel and silence about the other. Here the split is exactly what the specification is supposed to look like, and the floor is given the higher figure, which is the right way round.

Both deniers, too

20D ripstop on the fly, 40D on the floor. Thin where it only has to shed water, twice as heavy where it is dragged across grit. That is a deliberate build rather than a single fabric used throughout, and it explains the 2.0 kg.

The word on the weight

The bullet says Gesamtgewicht — total weight. That is a packed figure, not a trail figure, and it is worth having stated: comparing this 2.0 kg against another maker’s bare number will usually flatter the other maker.

What is missing

No floor dimensions, no peak height. The listing talks about freedom of movement and an innovative geometry, and publishes no measurement of either. Nor does it say whether the tent stands without pegs.

Before ordering

Ask for the pitched footprint. Everything about the weatherproofing is on the page; nothing about the space is.

What it does well, and where it gives way

Strengths

  • Publishes both water columns separately — 4000 mm for the outer and 5000 mm for the floor — which no other tent in this group does
  • Publishes a denier for each panel: 20D ripstop for the fly and 40D for the floor
  • Labels the 2.0 kg as a total weight rather than leaving a bare figure, and gives a 15 × 42 cm pack size beside it

Compromises

  • No floor dimensions and no peak height, so the claimed sense of space cannot be checked against a measurement
  • The pitch type is never stated: a clip system is named without saying whether the tent stands unpegged
  • The aluminium poles are not given an alloy grade, which is the detail that matters when a section needs replacing

What people ask before buying

Why is a floor figure normally higher than a fly figure?

Because the loads are different. Rain arrives on a fly at low pressure; a knee or an elbow on a wet floor concentrates body weight onto a few square centimetres. Makers who measure both usually publish a higher number for the floor, and 5000 against 4000 here follows that pattern.

What does a 40D floor buy over a 20D one?

Abrasion resistance where it is needed most. A floor is dragged over grit every time the tent is pitched and packed, and doubling the yarn weight there costs far less carried weight than doubling it everywhere.
