I love my Galileos! It's the 3 pair I own! The Onyx rubber lasts longer than everything before. At least 500 pitches.
I used them on 20+ pitches alpine routes as well as on short and overhanging routes. go and buy a pair of them. You won't regret it....

I love this tent! Bouhgt it for CAD 390.- at MEC a few years ago.

A very good copy of the excellent and horrendously expensive Terra Nova Quasar tent.

I lived a two summers in this tent while canoeing in the Yukon. It worked great even when it was raining a whole week! Ventilation is great and once set up right it is totally bomb proof!

I once had to wait out a blizzard with windspeed up to 100km/h and the lightfield offerd excellent protecition. Althoug it makes some strange noise in really heavy wind when the fly rubbes on the poles...

All in all an excellent tent. I would not hesitate du buy another one!
