Help: Why does my Coleman 525 tent keep collapsing when I anchor it to a 28‑inch baseball bat?
I just bought the Coleman 525 4‑season tent last week. The specs say the poles can handle up to 80 psi wind load, so I figured I'd improvise with my spare 28‑inch maple bat from the high‑school lineup instead of hauling the aluminum poles.
I taped the bat into the center hub with a 1‑3‑5 knot (the "triple‑lock" the military 2021‑07 M2105 spec mentions) and set it up in the woods. Within 10 minutes a gust of 30 mph blew the whole thing down. The manual also claims you can use a 75% O₂ breathable mask to keep the canvas from sagging, which didn't help either.
Anyone else tried the bat‑pole hack? Is there a better way to secure the tent without lugging extra poles, or am I just misreading the spec sheet?
- TL;DR: Bat = pole? 1‑3‑5 knot works? Need a fix.
