Groundsheet
Groundsheets that are sold out will be re-stocked in late July (X-Dome 2).
Our factory built groundsheets offer greater protection and a cleaner floor for your Durston tent. Our floors are designed to last a long lifespan when used with care on regular surfaces, but a groundsheet is recommended for camping on harsher surfaces (e.g. rock, gravel), to provide a greater level of protection against unforeseen objects, for people that don't want to check their campsites for sharp objects, and to keep your tent cleaner.
QUALITY
While many companies are content to sell you a piece of tyvek or a simple bit of fabric, we think groundsheets should be built to the same high quality standards as the tent you are using it with.
Our groundsheets are built using top of the line custom materials and construction methods. Unlike perhaps any other company, our groundsheets are fully double stitched, use double folded edges (to hide the raw fabric edges), have generous bartacking, and reinforce all of the connection points.
Unnecessary perhaps, but for a negligible weight difference we can make a groundsheet to be proud of.
USAGE & COMPATIBILITY
Our groundsheets are the same shape as the floor (they do not cover the vestibule). To use the groundsheet, position it logo side up and slide it under the floor and clip it to the four floor corners. The ground sheet can be left attached to the tent or removed if you wish. We suggest normally leaving it attached but removing it when drying the tent.

Hey,
Unfortunately I still haven't used the groundsheet for its purpose. I hit the trail but I had a little accident. Since I was enthusiastic enough to camp at high altitudes I had the chance to test the groundsheet and the tent in windy conditions but fortune had other plans for me. Unfortunately I slipped and fell of a cliff and I would've been dead now if it wasn't the groundsheet I bought from you guys. Somehow in the process of falling I tried to grab for anything I could grab in order to avoid the fatal incident. Thankfully I ended up falling with the groundsheet in my hand. What happened next saved my life or at least both my legs. I spread the groundsheet as a paraglider above my head and it turns out it did an amazing job as I flew over a few hundreds of meters and landed successfully. I have only a few bruises but the groundsheet a.k.a paraglider was indeed the key to my survival. I can't thank you enough for thinking about this as well. Having in mind that the groundsheet could be used as paraglider is probably the best designer 8dea behind this amazing groundsheet. Will let you know how it performs as a groundsheet the next time I hot the trail. Thank you once again for your amazing product and for practically saving my life. Just one advise - you can easaly rebrand the product as 2 in 1 (Groundsheet + Paraglider). Don't be shy and point out all the features and uses your amazing product can have.
Cheers!

Amazing! Glad you had a good flight :)
I see you have the 2P size, which is our best gliding model. It is nice to know it worked well in the Bulgarian alps and you were able to have a safe landing with only a few bruises. We aren't currently advertising these as multi-use paraglider/groundsheets because of liability reason and the need to implement more of a steering system, but it is good to have it field tested and we will see what further advances lie ahead.
Yours in flight,
Dan
It’s fits just right, lightweight, strong, and I just keep it attached. And it fits along with the tent and stakes in the original stuff sack. Highly recommend.
Great addition to the tent to keep the inner clean and dry, It’s a lot easier to brush and shake off and dry a footprint than an inner.

The groundsheet is one area in which my otherwise excellent X-mid 1 Solid could be improved. The groundsheet was purchased in March 2024 and has been used on less than 30 pitches. It creates a protective barrier for the inner tent floor and keeps it clean, but the 3500 mm HH fabric is not waterproof. I discovered this when camping every night while for three weeks cycling the length of Britain in mixed conditions this June. Even on dry pitches, some moisture seeped through the groundsheet by morning, leaving the exterior of the inner tent floor wet while the interior remained dry. In all other respects and in all weather - heavy rain, high temperatures and humidity, and very strong wind - the tent performed superbly. But a waterproof groundsheet would have been very useful, particularly when packing away the inner tent separately during rain. I hope this is helpful.
