CALGARY, Alberta, March 22, 2024 (Newswire.com)
–
GentleTent, an innovative outdoor inflatable tent brand from Austria, proudly announces its expansion into North America, promising to elevate the camping experience for outdoor enthusiasts across the continent. Leveraging patented inflatable technology, GentleTent introduces a rooftop tent that is the largest on the market to sleep six people and also weighs under 110 lbs.

Alex Paisley, representative from GentleTent, shares the excitement: “We get a lot of questions when we say our tents are inflatable, but once we explain the benefits of how fast they set up, how light they are, how small they pack away, even how durable they are, people are always intrigued. Our Austrian origins and innovative inflatable frame is a rooftop tenting solution that North America hasn’t seen yet. We believe this is the future of camping and we’re excited to see it out in the wild.”

Key features and benefits of the GentleTent products include:

Spacious Comfort: The largest six-person rooftop tent on the market with a divider to make 2 private rooms. Put the kids on one side and have a private space to yourself on the other side.

Lightweight Design: Our 6 person tent is under 110 lbs, and fits on almost any vehicle.

Easy Set-Up: Our patented inflatable design makes setting up a breeze. You’ll be set up and camping within 15 minutes of arriving.

It’s inflatable: Not only is it a great rooftop tent, but if you need to kill an afternoon, take it down and go floating on the lake. Yes, it floats too!

Weather Resilient: Built to withstand the strongest storms, even with its inflatable frame. Check out our YouTube channel to see our wind tests.

Durable: It’s inflatable, but the frame is made of similar material to stand-up paddleboards and other inflatable watercraft, making it strong and extremely tough to puncture.

GentleTent is now available for purchase in North America. Pricing information and availability can be found on our website.

The Bugeye, Micro-Compass Redefined for the Trailblazers, Just Launched on Kickstarter

LONDON, December 8, 2022 (Newswire.com)

PD EDC is hoping its new keychain navigational compass The Bugeye continues the company’s unbroken run of Kickstarter success stories. This time, the team has turned its considerable design skills on the humble pocket compass.

“Now that the world is open again and people are once again travelling and hitting the trails, we thought why not take another look at the traditional compass. We found that compasses haven’t changed much over the years, and there seemed to be only one style. Then we knew what we had to do,” said Andrew Lee, the product designer.

The Bugeye is the result of months of design work and the brief was to create a practical, capable, and functional compass that’s easy and fun to use.

Its base is made of durable Grade 5 titanium or solid brass, often referred to as timeless materials.

The result is a tool that is:
- Shockproof
- Waterproof
- Sand-resistant
- Impervious to extreme temperatures
The compass itself is known as a globe compass because its spherical dial floats in a glass bubble. This design is achieved using high-sensitivity encapsulation technology.

The clever design means that the compass can be read in two different ways, offering higher functionality over some traditional compasses.

Viewed from above, the top dial lets the user view the so-called “cardinal points” like North and South but when the compass is held at eye level, the user can use a second lower dial to discern the actual direction they are travelling.

The Bugeye is a quality piece of equipment that could, in an emergency, prove to be a lifesaver. It’s the perfect backup for GPS. Even if you have a handheld GPS unit, it’s always a great idea to have an old-school backup.

The Bugeye is ideal for adults:
- Ramblers
- Hill Walkers
- Mountaineering
- Search and Rescue
- Star Gazing
- Ornithologists
- Adventurers
- Explorers
- Divers
- Anyone living in GPS or Wi-Fi black spots
The Bugeye just launched on Kickstarter and savvy backers can grab one for the early-bird better-than-retail price at up to 35% off.

To find out more about the product, the project or the team behind the project, please check the live campaign on Kickstarter: http://kck.st/3P9FbjH.

BLAND, Va., August 30, 2022 (Newswire.com)
–
Virginia-based Eupepsia Wellness Resort, located in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, was voted #1 Best Health & Wellness Resort in the U.S. for 2022.

Earning this award for the second year in a row, based on its nomination by a distinguished expert panel and an overwhelming number of public votes in USA Today’s Readers’ Choice, Eupepsia continues to exceed guests’ expectations, with a highly personalized wellness offering that delivers deeply transformative benefits, earning it consistent five-star ratings on Trip Advisor and Google reviews.

“Unanimous 5-star reviews are no surprise. A retreat here is the best gift you can give yourself. Conventional spas are a band-aid. My one-week retreat helped me reboot my all-around wellness from the inside out,” wrote Stacy B. in her Trip Advisor review.

Over the last year, the boutique resort has further elevated its wellness experience, with premium additions to its facilities and new cutting-edge treatments, as part of its relentless drive to deliver the latest developments in health and wellness.

The wellness sanctuary wraps guests in warmth and a deep sense of peace from the minute they set foot onto the property with its red cedar chalet interior, which is now carried through to the guest bedrooms, featuring cedar furniture, a glowing infrared fireplace wall inset and luxury, state-of-the-art amenities.

To further enhance guests’ sleep experience, one of the foundational pillars of its wellness experience, rooms are equipped with a fully adjustable bed and a custom-made Eupepsia x Bear Performance mattress developed in partnership with a leader in sleep wellness and designed to deliver a rejuvenating and restorative sleep. Based on their requests, Eupepsia has also made its new mattress available for guests to take home.

Grounded in Ayurveda, Eupepsia’s programs feature a unique and careful blend of traditional and future-forward natural therapies, curated in real time to deliver optimal wellness aligned with each guest’s specific health condition and goals. The latest in Eupepsia’s pioneering offerings is the Hocatt™ Infrared Ozone Sauna, offering exceptional preventative and management benefits for a wide variety of health conditions.

Guests also enjoy Eupepsia’s traditional Ayurvedic therapies, with the healing power of a realigning Shirodhara treatment or a Marma Facial. They can relax and recharge with a signature massage or a re-balancing herbal treatment indoors or in the outdoor cabana, to the soothing sound of the nearby creek; cleanse and renew in the Himalayan Salt Chalet; or drift into deep relaxation in the salt flotation session.

With a bio-individual diet another key wellness pillar, guests savor delicious, chef-prepared, plant-based gourmet meals, organically sourced from the property’s gardens, greenhouses, and dairy farm, whether in the indoor dining room or the alfresco terrace with its breathtaking views.

Grazing on acres of lush green fields on the property, Eupepsia’s free-range cows, sheep, goats, chickens and bees produce 100% pure organic milk, eggs and honey –free of fertilizers, antibiotics or herbicides – which is used to create the purest dairy produce and dishes for guests to relish.

“If you are looking for a place to reset and recharge, you will find it at Eupepsia. Ayurvedic therapies and world-class cuisine are just two of the reasons to make the trip. And the staff is phenomenal,” wrote Teresa Macalolooy in her Google review.

Eupepsia’s stunning hillside setting, sprawled over pristine fields, waterfall ponds, fruit orchards and endless farm and forest land, with a refreshing year-round breeze, encourages guests to soak up nature’s wonders and breathe in some of the nation’s purest air, with daily hikes and newly added mountain biking on one of the seven trails starting right on the property and connected to the Appalachian Trail and nearby Jefferson National Forest. Daily functional training sessions in the outdoor pool, kayaking and pedal boating in the pond are also on the menu.

Traveling from across the nation and around the world, guests can also deep dive into a personal journey of self-awareness and self-reflection with Eupepsia’s ‘meditation in motion’ yoga sessions in the Grand Yoga Hall or in one of the scenic outdoor yoga studios on the pond or in the pergola. The newly added labyrinth garden also allows guests to experience a walking meditation, as a way to quiet the mind, calm anxieties, enhance creativity and encourage insight, self-reflection and stress reduction.
