MSR Hubba Hubba
Winner of a 2005 Backpacker magazine Editors Choice Award, the 2-person Hubba Hubba doesn't compromise on internal space to save weight. This freestanding, superlight tent features lots of elbow room, 3 setup options, 2 doors and vestibules, and no-drip entries that keep the inside dry even with the vestibules open.
Our Verdict
A high quality 2 person tent with excellent headroom. We like the flexibility of the fast and light option of flysheet plus footprint, which in this case brings the weight down to 1450g, thats a lot of comfort for only 725g each person.
MSR have shaved the weight of the Hubba Hubba this year, we reckon it weighs around 100g less than last. However for an even lighter version with full fabric inner in preference to the mesh - check out the new Hubba Hubba HP.
