Rick Law designs the Thecatal's Wind Anchor, which is an ultralight camping experience that is created by fusing elements of innovative design and durability together. Whether users are navigating through the backcountry, mountain terrains, forests, and more, it is ready to tackle various environments. At first, it is quick to notice its lightweight look and feel as the standard Wind Anchor model is only 850g.
This makes it very easy to bring along on the adventures and then the next upgrade, the Wind Anchor Pro is even lighter at 650g. Thecatal ensures that the engineering is strong enough to support the structures even throughout the harshest conditions that may come along during the adventures. It works collectively with the central pole as the main load-bearing element.
