Helix Pants - www.revolutionrace.fi/miehet/...
In my opinion - the most badass pants ever. These have all the features one needs for outdoor adventures in the autumn, winter, and spring! The waterproof and windproof outer shell makes sure of this!
Sherpa Hoodie - www.revolutionrace.fi/miehet/...
A.K.A - The Bear. My absolute favorite piece of clothing I own at the moment! It's warm and cozy with a big hood and some really handy pockets.
Ribbed Patch Beanie - www.revolutionrace.fi/asustee...
This is a really stylish and functional beanie. And as someone with a big head, this is a hat that actually fits me, which makes a nice change! The fabric doubles over at the ears keeping them warm and toasty!
Outdoor Parka - www.revolutionrace.fi/miehet/...
A.K.A. The beast! One jacket to rule them all! With a temperature rating down to -20 degrees, this is a big jacket that will take everything the Finnish winter can throw at it and more!

Of course you got the army tent up quickly after all the practise in the Finnish army simulator 😁
Haha exactly 😁😁
Never to the ice without ice picks, those can save your life if you go through the ice
yes that helps if the ice is thin and you break it more
Also recommended is a floating overall.
If the ice is very thick there is basically no danger of that happening
@@violaer Stil its smart to be prepared to what if situation.
I noticed the mishap with the tarp right away. 😃 "sure that's not long enough"
the TAKATALVI has came in helsinki
I knoooow. It came like 3 days after filming this... I definitely jinxed us! 😭
@@davecad yep
Sorry to ruin your party. It's february, this is just winter =)
One notion thought. The ground should totally be avoid of snow before pitching the thent, or you might end waking up in pool of sleet.
Army tent is warm in winter, russian didnt have tents in winter war.
Hammock camping (and pretty much all camping) is "välinelaji" as we say in finnish. Just get 3x3 tarp and underquilt.
I think an under quilt would make a huuuuge difference! I might have to invest
with airmattress in hammock it helps that you do not fill it to the very brim. that way it conforms to your shape. 😊 . And yes diamond setup for the tarp gives more cover against the rain even if the tarp is not the largest. but 3mx3m works well.
Adding to the comments about proper tarp and underquilt. You need a proper hammock as well, usually they are a bit small for tall people you should find yourself 11ft(3.3m) version
Hammoc camping has a small learning curve into it. (You had totally wrong tarp for it) Get a real tarp, like DD 3x3 meters, and put it at diamond shape. Or DD 3x4,5 and put that like you put yours in this video. And then buy a good underquilt to go with that set, and you are good to go.
And after those things, learn some basic knots. Or, actually learn those knots before trying hammock camping again 😉
Thanks so much for the tips!!
@@davecad Hammock is quite cold 'couse air gets below you even with good matress.
We need a Luke and Dave take on Finland series, just you mates travel together to a new place every month 🤣 Have you been to the Winter War Museums?
Gotta say sleeping in the cabin was definitely the correct choice. Getting wet in the winter while sleeping outside is a pretty bad idea
I was watching the whole time when you tried to cover the hammock that the other end is gonna get wet 😅
I ve slept many nights in that, half platoon tent, longest strech was a full month in the middle of the winter. Good old army days.
Koska kouvolaan?😀
You're supposed to lay at an angle in the hammock so it doesn't get too tight on the sides
You should get trangia to cook your food! I have one, my parent's have one and my grandparents used to have one.
Pretty heavy tho on long hikes.
It's really peaceful. Really relaxing.
You are lucky this is one of the warmest winters
Thinking about nothing, except should I open the next beer or should I change the lure or bait. So relaxing 🙂
Nice one Dave! I started my solo hiking and camping and camping adventures in SW Finland just this winter. I have been tent, laavu and tarp camping in Teijo National Park. Great that you got sponsorship from RR! Their pants are super! I love the camo print ones!
I may be biased saying that I like the "sissiteltta" the best. Very cozy.
You definitely jinxed us
7:26 That tent... I have spent so many nights in a tent just like that...
Nice video Dave! Wasn’t sure if you were going to make one since I never saw you filming 😁 Let’s do the hammock camping again soon! 🙌🏼
One advice is to get into the sleeping bag before getting into the hammoc.
Everything done wrong. Even that you didn't eat the cold sausages. Sausages are always ready. Makkara on aina valmis.
Dave's voice is so soothing. He could read the dictionary from A-Z, and I would watch that on repeat.
I'd pay to hear an audio book by him in Finnish.
Right? :)
If you decide to visit Tampere and would like to experience some archery in a bit different setup, gimme a shout. Im talking about a path in forest with different ranges and targets. I'll throw in "pannukahvit" and campfire snacks on site after the run, as i always do when i spend a day in the woods :)
You indeed jinxed it, now we have snow again. Which is not necessarily a bad turn of events!
Last weekend, we had a winter camp in scouts, and we slept in that kind of tent (puolijoukkueteltta) and slept in it. It snowed all Saturday, and we went ice fishing and sledding. I want to get myself a hammock.
i live in finland rovaniemi but here is alot of snow
Kudos with the tarp! I have been using the cheapest one for years. It doesn't look cool but it serves it's function. Sometimes I get laughed at using the tarp like that but I don't mind. They spend money on something which I don't need.
You tried, you enjoyed yourself, and that's all that matters.
It is a lot of hassle but if you place one tent on top of another one it makes really good insulating layer in between them. That way you can get some more use out of broken tent.
I hope you like it here in Finland, i love your vids, and the interest of yours to Finland, my record is 7h ice fishing. Its called (pilkkiminen) Like "im ice fishing" - "minä pilkin"
It's good to test these thins out before you do them in the middle of nowhere.
I was just about to write "takatalvi" when you said it yourself. 🤣
Dave my man you're definitely not supposed to sleep with the thermo pad inside the sleeping bag lmao! And I noticed your tarp was quite short. You could've had it like you tried it at first, 1 corner to each side and 1 corner to head and toes. That's how I use my 3x3 tarp it's quite cozy!
With my claustrophobia and fear of all living things, I wouldn't even attempt this. Also, after such a long time hearing people say "piste fi" it felt weird hearing "dot FI"
Nice video 🌨️⛺
Thanks 👍
Dave doing his best impression of Too-Ticky from The Moomins.
Just boil the sausages in that burned porokeitto with water and after eating, use the sausage water for coffee. Beautiful!
First time campig in my country its eesy
You need underblanket not to freeze.
How can there be so little snow? It's been snowing all weekend.
There's only one thing to remember: there is no rights or wrongs, only what works for you!
The problem with a regular sleeping pad in a hammock in my experience is that they are quite narrow. At least I always get cold around my shoulders. And as you said the sleeping pad has a habit to move around. An underquilt is one solution to the problem.
If you don't want to invest in an underquilt, a big (150x200cm or bigger) thick wool or fleece blanket can be used instead. Just fold it in half and use it as a "sleeping pad". I always use a blanket at home when I sleep on my balcony, down to about -10C. The packing size of a blanket is a minus, but you probably already have one to try with.
The tarp you are using should be big enough, it looks like a 2x3m, you just have to try to adjust it better. Just try to cover all of the hammock, not the ropes. And if you can lower the tarp on both ends it can give better coverage. You could also try to set up the tarp in a "diamond" shape.
i have pant that have 14 pocketses. never have enough pocketses unless yous girl when no pocketses will do just fine
18:00 no audio?
I might be wrong, but you should actually sleep in your underwear + longsleeve shirt (to keep your shoulders warm, just in case) in your sleeping bag, because your bodyheat will keep you warmer, than clothes on you. The problem at this point is that you sleep in a hammock... So how would you plan to put on your clothes back at the morning? Smush all your clothes into the feet end of the sleeping bag and put them on before getting up?
Some Partiolainen once told me to sleep naked in your bag to keep yourself warm, so... that might have been a lie or actual good advice.
Nice camp setup. Are you aiming to become the next Ali Leiniö on UA-cam?
Thanks! 😁 I had to Google him, but seems like a really nice channel! Gonna watch some of his stuff now 🙂
@@davecad And here's another one for some hardcore hiking: Mehtamikko : www.youtube.com/@Mehtamikko
In helsinki it just snowed a lot a few days ago, where are you cause i don’t see like any snow? Or did you film this before 3 days ago?
haha yeah, I filmed this like 3 days before the massive snowfall in the south! I knew I'd jynxed it!
@@davecadokay!
Bro it took me and my 15friends over 30 minutes cause nobody did not want to do anything
Do you have some form of Heterochromia? Your left eye seems like its half blue half grey
07:45, but I want to watch you sleep Dave... 😶🌫
Oof, the sponsor didn't give you any glasses or goggles? Sometimes it may rain sleet straight to your face.. That's a minus for me.
You promised to go to Kouvola. The video has 10k likes. You coward. Go to Kouvola.
I'm going in March!
@@davecad thank you for replying, you're a brave man for willing to tackle the nuclear wasteland dubbed Kouvola. Please vlog the deadly experience and I wish you good luck.

You were right, you jinxed it 😆
