Mark III remembers me of the GG SpinnShelter. Seems interesting, and aimed at people who hike together, so nothing for the solo hiker (what strikes me as odd, thinking about it, is that most UL folks here seem to hike solo. What's up with that?).

The website could need an overhaul, though. Looked like the 80s.

I don't, but 52.9 square feet for 1 lb, 2.7 oz. is not bad. Duomid by comparison has 40 square feet.

No internet in the 80's last time I checked.

Here are reviews of the shelter here:
