ReviewSince it first arrived (under the name Laserlite) back in 2003 the Terra Nova Laser Competition has progressed from a radical new concept to become an instant classic and the must-have tent to have for lightweight backpacking. This ascent to greatness can be measured by the consistently fantastic reviews the tent has recieved, first purely due to it's incredible low weight (now less than a kilo packed, 860g minimum) but in recent years also because of it's low pack-size, ease of use and durability.
This tradition of excellence was continued in Trail Magazine's one-person tents review of March 2009. The Laser Competition was the only tent to achieve a 5 star rating, and walked away with another "Best In Test" crown. Perhaps the most surprising aspect of the Laser Competition's success is that it is also considerably less money than most other top-end solo tents, being well under £300.
**PLEASE NOTE** As a result of consumer feedback the Laser Competition now has a two-way zip in the flysheet door, not one way as stated in the review.
The Laser Competition is now available in the US, and has been reviewed extensively by the team at backpackinggeartest.org - click here to see the tests
