BOULDER — Roofnest reveals Falcon 2, the second generation of the versatile Falcon aluminum clamshell rooftop tent that put Roofnest on the map. For the second generation, the Falcon 2 is all new and offers exclusive features campers can only get with Roofnest. 

“Since its launch in 2019, Falcon became one of Roofnest’s best-selling tents, thanks to its slim styling, durability, versatility, and unmatched standard features. Falcon 2 continues that legacy with more standard features and higher quality materials than any other hard-shell rooftop tent on the market,” said Roofnest Founder Tim Nickles. “What’s more, members of the Roofnest Flock owners group enjoy a more positive tent-owning experience than any other rooftop tent company.”

Each accessory channel holds up to 75 pounds with a standard M8 hex bolt, ideal for mounting lights, shovels, or axes, or recovery boards.
