X1 Strike

Be the first to review this product
The Crux X1 Strike Tent takes the design of the X1 Raid but adds an extra pole. This adds slightly more rigidity to the tent but most importantly provides more space at headroom. The X1 Strike also offers more protection from the elements when the door is open, thus increasing comfort on longer trips. This is all achieved without increasing the footprint of the tent, so it still pitches easily in small spaces between boulders and is totally self-supporting for firm pitches on snow.

The Crux X1 Strike Tent, like all of the X1 range uses X-tex material. This means that unlike other single-skinned tents, when climatic conditions cause condensation to form on the inner wall of the tent, the X-Tex fabric actually absorbs the moisture which prevents dripping (a serious problem with single skinned tents). The fabric stays dry to the touch whilst absorbing moisture and continues to breathe at a significant rate, as it doesn't rely on water molecules remaining as vapour to pass through it.

X-Tex fabric uses a coating technology with activated carbon and introduces a new and quite revolutionary means of managing condensation which is greatly superior to conventional breathable membranes.

The tent itself is built around the same diagonal 2-pole, external pole-sleeve configuration as the X1 Raid, but features a third internal pole to create significantly more space at the head of the tent. This allows for easier entry/exit from the tent, and yields a more vertical door that reduces the exposure of the inside to the elements.

So what does this type of tent offer over other tents?
Single skinned tents are lighter than double skinned traditional tents, therefore you can get a tent that weighs little but you haven't had to pare the strength of the fabrics and poles down to achieve that low weight as you do with a double walled tent. So single skinned tents can be both light and strong at the same time.

Until now single skinned tents could only be used comfortably at high altitudes where the air holds little moisture so that the climate that you build up in the tent by breathing is able to be passed through the walls of the tent as easily as possible. Down in the valley in the U.K. for example where the air is generally moisture laden, your traditional single-skinned would be dripping all over you with condensation.
