Here is my review of the all-new 2023 Terra Nova Lazer Compact AS tent. This is a 4 season tent that can be used wild camping all year round thanks to it's ventilation options. This backpacking tent is very compact with a packed size of just 33cm x 19cm. It's a great piece of backpacking gear weighing 1724 grams all-in including 14 heavy duty pegs.

Terra Nova Laser Compact AS Tent:
New for 2023, the Laser Compact AS is the newer version of the Laser Compact All Season. The AS model offers extra headroom and a new PFC-free inner plus a 30D Si2 dark green coloured flysheet. Ideal for solo all-season backpacking, the single hoop design of the award-winning Laser has been combined with robust fabrics and extra guylines for an ultimate, lightweight all-season tent.
All-season version of the iconic Laser model with extra headroom and living space for comfort in cold weather use
PFC-free flysheet and breathable inner fabric
Main seams are seam plus factory silicone sealed and the fully taped groundsheet offers complete waterproof protection
Includes a vent hood over the top end of the single flysheet doors to provide ventilation and additional protection from the rain
To help keep condensation at a minimum, there are also vents at both ends of the inner and flysheet
Low profile wind-cheating design that can be double-poled in extreme conditions (additional pole sold separately)
If conditions are poor and you need to double-pole the tent, there are extra eyelets in the pull-out tapes for the pole feet
Three guylines at each end of the flysheet add extra stability in windy conditions
There’s a webbing loop at the bottom of the flysheet door to accommodate a trekking pole, enabling you to create a useful canopy
