I recently received my new 8 man but I haven't been able to master the setup. Any tips or links to good videos? My searches still leave me confused on how taught to stake it out.
Check out the SO website mate, there's a forum link on there that has set-up tips, and if i'm sure if your particular answer's not there, Kevin will be along to help.
I'm no expert yet, but have had no issues
Obviously get your setbacks correct, but after that, don't be afraid to pull stake out points, and set the pole as TIGHT AS YOU CAN GET THEM! You want a drum tight pitch. Also, always place a rock or piece of wood under your center pole. If you don't, the wind will slowly work it into the ground, loosening your pitch.
