How would this tent hold up in cold and windy situations, like in upper Scandinavia ?

ExorizI'd say it would do well - at least as good as normal single pole mid like the MLD DuoMid. With more headroom it does have more side area exposed to the wind, but it also has smaller panels and peak guylines. Single pole mids don't normally have peak guylines, but when you deploy these on the X-Mid is gets really strong. I think the X-Mid would do about as well as you could reasonably expect. If you think your use case is particularly extreme, you may be better off with a 4-season mountaineering tent.

ExorizWell, winds at Sarek these days reach top speeds of 4 meter per second I don't think you need any special tents for that, unless you're talking about other season than summer

dandurstonSounds good, the 9 month wait time is a bit much but i have decided to join the drop. Can't wait to try it out! Would love too see something like a alpine or dcf tent in the future.
