Hosts Bryan Bolt and Davis West sit down with Nick Deninno of B&R Innovations (Block & Roll) to trace the evolution of tent ballasting, from water barrels and concrete failures to engineered, attachable block solutions.

The episode covers ballast studies, practical rules of thumb (10–15 lbs/sq ft), why tying ballast to legs matters, transportation and site logistics, and how proper ballasting improves safety, efficiency and revenue for tent companies. You'll also hear a few funny stores along the way to keep you laughing while you learn.
