Decathlon

In 2020, Decathlon updated its classic Quechua 2 Second Tent with the 2 Second Easy, an even smoother variant with faster-packing operation. Decathlon now grows the Easy family with a 3-person variant that's every bit as fast and easy to work.

For over a decade, the 2 Seconds Tent has lived up to its name by all but pitching itself. Decathlon now streamlines the 2 Seconds into the 2 Seconds Easy, using a pull-cord/push-button system to go from car to camp and back with less work than ever.

The U.S. Department of Energy Solar Decathlon has announced that China is to follow Europe's lead and host its own version of the competition in 2013.

The winners of the Solar Decathlon 2009 competition, which sees 20 university-led teams from around the world competing to design, build, and operate the most attractive and efficient solar-powered home, have been announced.
