If you can't afford secluded beach-front property, the next best thing for surfside chillaxin' is a solid, comfortable tent. Surf gear company Reef has commissioned California-based product design company LifeStyleDesign to conjure up an ideal surf tent, catering to the needs of the adventurous, swell-chasing surfer. The result is a two-part tent: a sleeping pod and adjustable canopy that can be used separately and also fit together as a single unit. The two components break down into a compact bundle, slipping perfectly into a carrying case/ice chest. Contrary to time-intensive and complicated assemblies of traditional tents, the waterproof yet breathable sleeping pod is easily inflated with a foot pump. The canopy is an effective shield against sun, wind and rain, securely anchored by containers filled with rocks, sand, or water. Mesh siding on the canopy provides a ventilated storage compartment for boards and wetsuits. The Reef Surf Tent has clearly proven itself to be a top-drawer nomadic beach bum abode.
