Tentipi’s Nordic tipis are designed to be as flexible as possible. It is also well-known that they withstand stormy weather which destroys other tents. That would not be the case if the canopy was a permanent part of the Nordic tipi.
As of 2012, all Safir and Zirkon Nordic tipis of sizes 5–9 have a patented accessory sleeve (an integrated holder for accessories, placed over the door). There is a separate accessory connector available for earlier models, for Onyx and for tent size 15.
The canopy is attached to this sleeve and thereby becomes part of the Nordic tipi and gives rain protection over the door. At the same time, it is easy to remove if it gets too windy.
We have also designed our canopies so they can be used separately as well in different ways, extra hook pegs may be needed.
Canopy 5/7 is available in Comfort and Pro cotton/polyester, eco Pro cotton/polyester and Comfort lightweight.
Canopy 7/9 is available in Comfort and Pro cotton/polyester and eco cotton/polyester.
Included Canopies 5/7 cp and 5/7 light are delivered with six tent pegs and one telescopic pole. The canopy size 7/9 cp is delivered with eight pegs and three telescopic poles.
The versatility of the Tentipi Nordic tipi is further enhanced with functions that also suit more stationary campers
Any rain water running from the tip of the tipi is diverted from the door opening
The canopy can easily be removed without taking down the tent, e.g. if there is a risk of snow or bad weather
It is securely and neatly attached to the accessory sleeve (PCT patent) which is a standard feature on our tent models Zirkon and Safir from 2012 on
The canopy can be put up as a wind-break
The canopy can be put up as a freestanding shelter
Accessory connector To attach the canopy to a Nordic tipi that does not have an integrated accessory sleeve (all models before 2012, Onyx and tent size 15), an accessory connector is needed.
