Outwell Wind Stabilizer System

13. January 2012

Continual research and development by Outwell has led to making the market’s most stable family tents even better. New for 2011, OWS System (Outwell Wind Stabilizer System) has proved itself the best system yet for keeping a tent structure stable in the most adverse weather conditions.

Outwell Wind Stabilizer System

A key development for 2011, our Wind Stabilizer System uses strong Velcro fastening system as a direct attachment point for the flysheet and tent pole. We know it’s the best for keeping the whole tent stable whatever the weather. We’ve proved it in the windiest test conditions, for example, using our very own wind simulator to show our tents can stand up to conditions high on the Beaufort Scale.

We’re determined to keep proving ourselves, and our programme of constant evaluation ensures we’re the best. Tents from our AvantGarde, Premium, DeLuxe and Fantasy Collections have been assessed against the wind conditions as measured by the Beaufort Scale. Amazingly, they’ve proved they can withstand storm ratings of nine and ten.

Tents from our AvantGarde and Premium Collections have stood up to a minimum of Force Ten on the scale – that’s the equivalent to a storm with wind speeds of 55-63mph which will uproot trees! Even our slightly lower specification DeLuxe and Fantasy tents show that they can stand up to a minimum of Force Nine – a strong gale with wind speeds of 47-54mph that will blow branches off trees.
