Solar Photon 2/Solar Ultra 2 Footprint

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Lightweight, durable, and precisely fitted, the Terra Nova  Solar Photon 2/Solar Ultra 2  is valuable and adds longevity to their tent without a significant weight penalty.

Terra Nova says: 

Footprints offer extra protection against sharp objects as well as keeping the tent underside clean and covering the porch area. Terra Nova footprints are sized to fit the footprint of the tent exactly, fitting under the inner tent and over the exposed porch area, and attach to the tent pole feet with shockcord loops to keep them in place. This ensures the weight penalty is kept to a minimum while providing extra durability.

Our Verdict

The Terra Nova Solar Photon 2/Solar Ultra 2 Footprint Footprint is a practical investment for those looking to extend the life of their tent. Designed specifically to fit the Solar models, this footprint adds an extra layer of protection against rough or rocky ground, helping to safeguard the tent’s groundsheet from abrasions and punctures. At 254g, it’s a modest addition in terms of weight, especially considering the durability it provides.

It sits neatly under the inner tent and extends to cover the porch area, keeping the tent base clean and dry. The shock cord loops make it easy to attach securely to the pole feet, keeping it in place.
