With all the talk about the silpoly shelters, it looks like Black Diamond is in the game - at least sort of. The updated Mega Light pyramid tent has been out for a while and it's made with what appears to be a sil/PU polyester fabric - something with silicone on one side and polyurethane on the other, so not a true silpoly fabric but similar.
They've also added mid panel guyout points.
Would be interested to see if anyone has gotten their hands on one of these or one of the other BD tents with this material. Currently if you want a silpoly mid your options are extremely limited, so this is really interesting to me.
Overall, the update seems to be a real game changer for the Mega Light, although the color is awful and I would be a little concerned about the longevity of the polyurethane coated fabric.
