Hi guys

Just after a little advise really. What's the best way to erect the corado 8? The instructions say start in the middle, this seems very difficult, others have said back front etc? Just after people's option who own them to find the easiest way!

Thankyou in advance

We used to have a Corado 8 before turning to 'vanning.

Yes the instructions say start in the middle, but we too found that didn't work.

So we did do it from the back.

Unroll the tent where you want it, thread the poles through laying them down away to the back.

(Think 'WindSurfer') now......

Once all in, two of you, start at the back lifting at each side of the poles up and forward to the front, securing each as you go.

And before you know it, it's up.


Hope you understand my explanation, as typing and saying sometimes I find are two different things....

We had the Corado 4 and found pitching from back 1st best for us.
