The Orson Hopper Pro 2 is a high-performance 3-season lightweight tent. Built to house 2 people and weighing only 2.2kg this tent is the ultimate shelter for serious NZ tramping and backpacking. Designed to be spacious, easy to use, and exceptionally capable of handling New Zealand’s variable weather, this has been a tried and tested best-seller since 2016 due to its proven low weight, small packed size, and consistent performance. This latest Hopper Pro 2 comes loaded with multiple upgrades for enhanced reliability and convenience, now featuring reliable YKK zips, high-visibility zipper pulls and Linelocs, and improved stability through easy-to-use Korean pole clips and added pole clips throughout the structure.
The Hopper Pro 2 is engineered for maximum liveability, making your time in the outdoors comfortable. This freestanding easy-to-pitch tent uses shock-corded aluminium poles for simple, fast setup. Access is excellent with double entrances and two good-sized vestibules for convenient gear storage. Furthermore, a unique roof spreader bar optimizes the internal space, creating near-vertical walls for a surprisingly spacious interior, which also includes inner storage pockets and a free gear loft to keep your essentials organized.
Built with premium Ripstop Silnylon, the Hopper Pro 2 handles tough NZ conditions with superior durability. The fly is made from durable 20D Ripstop Silnylon fabric with a reliable PU3000mm waterproof coating, while the floor uses a robust 40D Ripstop Silnylon with a strong PU5000mm waterproof rating for enhanced moisture resistance. Finally, adjustable ventilation is a key feature; it can be finely tuned from inside the tent with inner zip access to open or close the two side vents, plus vent struts at the top of the door zips for added airflow when needed.
A Hopper 2 Groundsheet is available as an optional extra for more floor protection and greater waterproofing. The tent can also be set up with only the fly or fly first in wet conditions using the groundsheet.
The Hopper Pro 2 is an updated model of the Hopper 2 - also available in a slightly heavier Polyester version See the Hopper 2 Lightweight, 2 Person, 2.5kg Tent here.
