Zpacks Pivot Duo Tent - is a spacious, fully featured two-person ultralight shelter designed to comfortably accommodate two hikers, two wide long sleeping pads, and their gear with room to spare. It’s also an excellent option for larger solo hikers who want to stretch out and keep their gear inside the tent.
Thanks to its unique shape and pole configuration, the Pivot Duo offers incredible livable space and flexibility — allowing hikers to sleep in either direction depending on the slope of the terrain. The generous interior makes it easy for two hikers to stretch out without touching the walls or ceiling.
Available in two different Dyneema® Composite Fabric canopy and floor weights:
"Lite" version features .55 oz/sqyd DCF canopy, .75 oz/sqyd DCF floor, and 1.3 mm guy lines.
"Standard" version .75 oz/sqyd DCF canopy, 1 oz/sqyd DCF floor, and 2mm guy lines.
Please note: Pivot Duo tent has one 81 cm (32") pole included.
SET-UP
Tent sets up with a trekking pole or tent pole adjusted to around 132 cm (52") at the peak and one adjusted to 81 cm (32") at the right rear corner of the tent. If you do not use trekking poles, we have tent poles available here.
The 52” pole is offset towards the head end of the tent creating a wide entryway with an L shaped zipper that drapes to help stop mosquitoes from chasing you into the tent. The offset pole also creates a steeper wall with additional head or foot room.
The 32” pole at the at the right rear corner of the tent further expands the internal volume of the Pivot Duo creating a tremendous amount of internal space. Taller hikers can have their head or feet right up against the screen wall without brushing condensation on the canopy. The second pole also helps brace the tent in the wind.

The tent package includes: guylines, sewn in linelocs, taped seams, and a Medium DCF Stuff Sack, 137 cm DCF repair tape strip and two spare zipper sliders, 81 cm (32'') tent pole with protective sling.
6 to 8 Stakes are required but are not included. You can buy them here.
TOTAL WEIGHT: 527 g / 18.6 oz including guy lines, sewn in linelocs, and taped seams (blue and olive tent, spruce green weighs 634 g / 22.4 oz)
MATERIAL: .55 oz/sqyd (blue, olive), .75 oz/sqyd (spruce green) Standard Dyneema® Composite Fabric
Dyneema® Composite Fabric has several advantages over other materials:
- High strength to weight ratio – the material can handle high wind force and does not tear easily.
- Chemical free, PFC free
- Waterproof – there is no DWR or coating to worry about wearing out. The material will not absorb significant water that will add water weight to your pack
- Stretch-free – the tent will stay taut all night. Nylon material by comparison can stretch and sag, especially if it gets wet.
- Taped seams – our seams are sewn for strength then taped water tight. The tie outs have bonded reinforcements for high strength. No seam sealing will be necessary!
- Easily repairable – Any damage can easily be fixed in the field with our Dyneema® Composite Fabric Repair Tape.
- This tent is semi-transparent. In bright sunlight, a fuzzy silhouette of a person sitting inside the tent would be visible, but you cannot see any details. It has a suitable amount of privacy for changing clothes.
- In lower light (such as in the evening or at night), you cannot see through at all. Another nice thing about this material is that you can see the outlines of trees and your surroundings for a more immersed outdoor experience.
- Dyneema® Composite Fabric is not a particularly noisy fabric; however, almost any tent will make a little noise in the wind. Earplugs are not a bad idea for windy nights.
FEATURES
|
Storm doors on each side of the tent feature a convenient zipper entry, magnet toggles, and peak vents for air flow. |
| Store your shoes and backpack in either vestibule space or stand your pack upright in the spacious interior. |
| 8 stakes are required for this tent. Stakes are not included but you can buy them here. |
| Fully enclosed ultralight insect netting keeps even the smallest insects out and adds ventilation around the perimeter. |
| Wide L shaped entryways on both sides of the tent create draping screen doors that help block mosquitos. The floor is pinned down by the poles for easy one handed zipper operation. |
| The bathtub floor has tall walls and is recessed from the perimeter to keep you protected from splash-up and condensation. In calm rain or under wet trees the doors can be left open for air flow without water dripping or falling into your living space. |
| The offset 52" poles combined with a 32" pole at the end of the tent creates steep walls for tons of head and foot room. Couples can sleep with their head and feet at either end depending on the slope of the ground or the wind direction. Your head or feet can be right up against the interior screen wall without brushing condensation. |
| The space will comfortably fit a pair of hikers up to about 1.95 meters (6' 5") tall. Even taller solo hikers can lay diagonally, or add a trekking pole cup and an additional 32" pole at the other end of the tent to boost the space further. |
| A compact footprint for a two person tent allows the Pivot Duo to squeeze into hard to find backcountry flat spots. |
| LineLoc V adjusters allow you to lock in the perfect pitch. Bright yellow Z-Line Guylines are easy to see day or night to avoid tripping. |
| The durable floor material does not require a separate groundsheet. Flat Groundsheets are an optional precaution. |
| Integrated mesh pockets allow you to stow small items like your headlamp, glasses, phone, or the tent stuff sack. |
| All zippers on the tent have been designed to allow the zippers sliders to easily be replaced in the field. Two replacement sliders are included with the tent. Zipper slider replacement instructions can be found here. |

I recommend using the KONG Extreme Dog Toy
Style: Sport, Size: Large
Helpful for throwing as much as my dog wants to fetch. I actually had to get a cortisone injection in my shoulder a few months after getting my dog - never had a dog with this much energy before! The Chuckit really helps.
Downside: The ball that comes with it is larger than a tennis ball, so may be too much for smaller doge. I can't imagine my sister-in-law's french bulldog carrying it! Also, in our house it gets destroyed within minutes, as my dog is a strong chewer. For this situation, I recommend using the KONG Extreme Dog Toy, Black, size Large.
This is shaped sort of like a snowman, which means it bounces unpredictably at times. My dog eventually chews the "head" off of this toy, but the remaining 2/3 still fits in the Chuckit (and is actually easier to throw with the "head" missing!). One caveat: the KONG is significantly heavier than the ball included with the Chuckit, so be aware of that...
Also, we ordered our first Chickit in October 2015, then needed to replace it in May of 2017, as it broke. I think the plastic became brittle over that time, as we left it out in the sun & rain in Florida. Since it is cheap to replace, that's not a big deal. (We ordered three Kong toys over that same period of time!)
To summarize, it's a very helpful tool to get the ball further, faster, with less strain, than without it. Knowing there are alternatives to the included ball for heavy chewers makes it worthwhile.

Great Ball Launcher!
Style: Sport, Size: Large
Our dogs love this ball launcher! I can throw the ball long distances without any arm strain. The balls wear out, and as described by others, tennis balls don’t fit. Buy extra balls if this is of concern. We bought a few of the “Chuck It” rubber 3” balls and they have worked well for our dogs. It’s a great value and fun for the dogs.

Chuckit!! Just Chuck it!!
Style: Sport, Size: Large
Chuck it further than your skinny little arms can chuck it. Doggo loved this, I loved this and when we were done Doggo promptly hid it under the porch so I couldn’t take it from him. It’s not a squeaky toy, it’s for fetch. You wing it out toward the yard and it flies, bounces if it’s lucky then is attacked in an adoring manner. We like it!!

The best way to tire your dog out in the dark
Size: 25in
My 7 month Golden Retriever puppy has way too much energy. And I go to work in the dark, and come home in the dark. This was the solution.
First of all if you get this, I suggest a UV flashlight to charge it. Most of these phosphors for glow in the dark items have very strong optical absorption in the UV, and the UV will charge both the ball and the launcher in seconds. I shine the light at the launcher with the ball in it, since you can then see where the launcher is when you are trying to load the ball. I use this UV flashlight, which takes qty=3 AA batteries.

I have never used a launcher before and I learned it within about 10 throws. It is easy to have a basic competence. I live in a suburban area and I send the ball across front lawns, trying to avoid the street, or hitting my neighbors parked cars. I can consistently do this now with the launcher, which is a big improvement over the old tennis racket and ball routine.
I got the 25" medium ball launcher, which also works for tennis balls. The scoop goes easily over the Chuck-it balls. My older dog is not taking to it, since he was trained to sit and give the ball. This works better if you have the dog drop the ball so you can scoop it.
The glow in the dark ball has 2 holes (think wiffle) that have a low pitch whooshing whistle as you toss it. This is great for my puppy who gets easily distracted as the glowing ball and the noise it makes really helps him propery mark it. Overall I think the dog retrieves better in the dark as there are fewer distractions, and I feel better about the dark for retrieving since there is no traffic early in the morning (both foot and auto). The ball has some squish to it and the pup loves to chew on it as he brings it back. I do not let him play with it when we are not retrieving...better for him to destroy his chew bones and ropes. It took him about 5 tries to get the hang of picking up the new ball. The older dog (13yr old golden) does not like it and only goes for tennis balls.
I can tell already this is my puppy's favorite toy ever. I put it up out of reach across coat hooks in the entryway, and that pup will sit there staring at it, then at me, then at it hoping that I will go out and use it. With bounces and rolls and the puppy missing the grab this has gone 100-150' across 3 front lawns. I am looking forward to giving it a go in the park on the weekend.
Main problems with the pup now are he likes to parade around me with the ball when he comes back, then lie down and try to give it a proper chew. If I use my launcher to pick it up, I have to put my foot between him and the ball since he will try to get it back fast. Overall this launcher means faster pickup, faster release, more accurate release, good distance, and a better run per time allocation than the old tennis racket and ball routine.
