Looks really interesting. Innovative design, but I would need a video to commit, (cannot tell how to pitch from images alone). Also....April 2019 is a loooooooooong way off. Don't really know how I feel about Massdrop having my money that long.
g33kyg1rlThanks for the kind words. I'm planning to make a setup video but it'll be a few weeks since I'm off hiking for 10 days shortly.
However, the pitch is incredibly simple so it's easy to explain. Trekking pole tents can be really fiddly and a big goal of mine was to avoid that. So pitching the X-Mid is as simple as staking out the 4 corners into a rectangle and then inserting the two poles via the vents.
Here is a infographic showing this setup process:
