That’s the best Lavvu demo on you tube. I can understand how it’s set up and transforms from tent to poncho and back. Think I will watch it again and maybe order an army surplus set.
The best demonstration on the lavvu bushwacker, excellent. Matt bigmonster is exellent but he would be being Polish and he gives a history of the whole concept of the LAVVU worth viewing.
I measured the length of the pole needed and sewed a small marker point at the front of the lavvu so I didnt need to take a pole and you get the right length which does make a difference as the rain rolls off better if the tent is tight. Some great ideas Bushwacker man -thanks!
That tripod set up 🤩 was nice 👍 thanks for the info. Keep up the good work, can't wait to get my hands on a lavvu. Already got a large canvas tipi tent with a fire stove setup but find it a bit of a faff setting up. Polish Lavvu seems so much compact and easier for short trips.🥰
Got my first night in a lavvu I just bough I can’t wait, just need a dog now and then my setup is complete, excellent video, hikers pole is a great idea for sizing etc.
Tip for all tents of this style: the first time you set up, take a piece of paracord with a loop and measure out the length from the centre pole to each peg point and either cut to length or mark it with a knot. Next time you set up, you can use the cord to find your peg out points.
Nice video and you are one of a few who uses the right side out:-) I recently saw a polish person demonstrating how to use it and he also said that almost everyone used the wrong side out. I must buy a couple of these myself. Greetings from Norway!
I’ve got one set of two ponchos there’s a Swedish guy who uses three, I’m gonna fork out and get another he makes some real cool little dwellings with them! Plus I’m used to the plus 40kg tabbing weight pack, that is a point I would add because these are heavy and if your out multiple nights and these get wet, as would the rest of your kit...it all just got a fair bit heavier just make sure you have the legs to carry it all
I have two of the polish laavu. They are an amazing bit of gear and extremely well thought out when designed. Great channel just subscribed and learned a few things from this video. Thanks! New Hampshire USA.
Funy part is, that a bunch of those could make a gigantic one, if properly piece out together. A company could just pach one tent for all guys, and be cozy about it.
Awsome i added stove jack and i added 15 inches material around the base . Added zipper to front door with zipper storm flaps ..Best mod was i added tie outs majes much bigger
Good video man. Love my Lavu. As a single man open shelter and as a poncho (sit and watch small game shelter). I've only have two remarks. One critic. You waer your poncho inside out! The 'shoulder flaps' must be on the inside. It looks less cool but it's done with a reason. They protect touching your shoulders and back against the outer water resistant layer. They otherwise will leak on you. The armholes in this position will also leak that way. The flaps are desigded to cover the armholes. Second: Is more of a tip I miss in all videos about the polish lavu tents. If you are tall; buy a Lavu poncho with 3 grommits on row at the bottom. The are the longest. When the lavu is to be used as a tent I recomment the 3 grommit version too (a little bit more space inside) and buy at least two lavu poncho at the same size. (1, 2 or 3 grommits)
@@BushwackerMan yeah we got record snow in Minnesota due to the Arctic Jet Stream slowing down from abrupt global warming. arctic-news.blogspot.com so then I discovered a Saami Norwegian making Lavvu tents here but I already ordered a Pomoly tent being sent out of Guangzhou. So it's the same design as a German Lavvu tent. Only the German tent does not have a stove jack and costs $730 US dollars!! Wow. I wonder if it's actually made in China also though. ua-cam.com/video/IWnlPYu3ovQ/v-deo.html
OK I figured it out - the German company is a one man operation and he posted his design on the site and said anyone else can make it on their own if they want. And China ran with it! And he doesn't seem to realize about the Pomoly tents yet. Oops. I posted a couple comments about it - on the German tent vids - or maybe just one. Didn't really want to crush him about it.
Funy part is, that a bunch of those could make a gigantic one, if properly piece out together. A company could just pach one tent for all guys, and be cozy about it.
I like my Soviet and East German shelter half tarps (the German a bit more so than the Russian) but these Polish lavvu tarps seem to be better suited to pitching as an actual weatherproof shelter. The more I've learned about lavvu shelters in general, the more I like them. Cheers, Gareth
Just a thought, if there are no trees to put up a ridge line, are there likely to be three long branches to make a tripod? Or do you keep them in your backpack? :)
I set mine up in snow a couple weeks back. The ground was frozen so my stakes/pegs wouldn’t go in well. Tripod ‘inside’ would have worked great!! I should have thought of that before I bent my pegs! Lol And I may try anchoring the corners to a log or large stones when I go in snow next time.. to hold the perimeter in place when pegs won’t go in the frozen soil. Thanks
Really happy to see you have it the right way out..........apart from when wearing it as a poncho. The shoulder flap always goes on the inside, whether used as a tent or as a poncho. If you look, there are less stitching/seams for water to ingress when the shoulder flap is inside. It also helps with the phenomenon of water leaking through canvas when the inside is touched by anything. Finally, the arms and their flaps are designed to keep the water from dribbling in when the poncho is used the right way round. An excellent video though, very informative! I love my lavuu, have also got the Hungarian version, it is camouflaged (really cool design), though not as well designed and slightly smaller. Don’t know if you know, but, the best way to waterproof it, is to set it out in the rain, get it wet, then allow to dry. Repeat this process at least 4 times (the more the better). This allows the fibres in the fabric to swell naturally, which tightens the weave and prevents water from getting through. There is a really good Facebook group: Polish and Hungarian Lavuu Owners Worldwide. Loads of great info, good people and support!
Bushwacker Man would you know which size that one is? The ones I have seen are measured in height or sizes 1,2,3 but confusingly not diameter, so I don’t know which one to get. I’m 5’ 9” if that helps. Many thanks and looking forward to more of your videos. :)
Great vid. Liked the inner tripod set up, but all-options look good. Thanks for showing the poncho. One of those things I want but don't get out enough to justify, not that it has ever stopped me before. lol
I purchased the XL. I am also 5'8" and I cannot use mine as a Poncho because it is too big. I am okay with that since I wanted the XL for a tent. I could use mine like you did at the end just to hunker down during a storm.
Bloody Brilliant! I really dig the last 2 set ups. I'm going to pick up the Lavvu 3. I have an ammo can stove I'll use in conjunction with this.ATB from your Canadian cousins
Great setups! Do you have any experience in rainy conditions? As the tarps get wet, they tend to slack, so I suppose, the inner frame would be the best choice.
I've done a few festivals in my lavvu, no quite big enough for my camping bed, feet stick out the door!! I love taking it up the woods with my son just to eat some sandwiches in :) great video mateeee! i want to try the tripod set up
Just curious you don't have or like a center pole there are no trees to tie a ridge line so were do you find tree 3 poles which are part of a tree but there are no trees to tie a ridge line but I fancy buying this type of tent great video 10 plus..
Great video. One further one missing...single section...open fronted...ideal for in front of a fire in the summer. No doubt about it...great bit of kit those lavvu"s
Is that the TBS boar, I have the original stainless steel version, even though it had its critics I've never had a problem with it, great for processing wood.
Great Vid man thank you very much... Question what does... say 3 or 4 Lavvu's look like together instead of the two coats =1 tent. I ask as my buddy has two large and if i got two large we should beable to make 1 big ass tent ??
Great video, thanks for sharing and the useful information. All I have to do now (which I've been searching for) is find somewhere on earth to buy a Lavvu?? I live in the U.S.
Some good set ups there mate I was hoping to get out in my lavvu on Monday or Tuesday but just got me self a 4x4 so will be sorting that out instead atvb jimmy 😎 😎
@@BushwackerMan just got a vauxhall frontera Olympus just a cheep one to start of with see how it goes all me mates no what to do ie fixing it up so should be ready soon atvb jimmy 😎😎
we have made a raised bed type in wet weather , the has to be bigger than the floor of the lavvu then we make a quad pod to hold it up. give it try in joy
Great video, thanks for uploading. Seriously thinking of getting this system, but have a few questions. What size and weight is this when packed? Could I stretch out fully inside (around 6 foot tall)? Could it stand up to heavy rain without an added tarp? Thanks again for the informative video
There is one another way how to lift that top of lavvu. Personaly I use a bipod made from 2 sticks or 2 walking poles inside my lavvu. Makes much more space inside.
Yeah you'd only use half of it though as they're so thick and dark....I use mine most like this with a small fire just within arm's reach next to a small river 😍
Funy part is, that a bunch of those could make a gigantic one, if properly piece out together. A company could just pach one tent for all guys, and be cozy about it. More guys, more fun.
there were some awesome ideas for setup a lavvu, the thing with separation I was not aware of, quite useful. You almost looked like Sherlock Holmes missing only the hat and the pipe. 👍 What about the OZtent, should we never see that in real action.
cool haha, I was planning on doing a similar video soon mate! Did you manage to get out in the snow recently? I ran out on friday when the boss called to say don't come in and set up the half side in a semi ditch and had a great semi-urban daycamp session. cheers, gonna hit sub now
Hi! Good video. I like this tent also. Sligh note. In polish we don't have and use that word: lavvu ;-). We speak Polish for it: pałatka (read: p.a.w.a.t.k.a, better check the pronunciation of a word on translator) Lavvu.. is a Sami tent, a kind of tipi, lower tipi, more resistant to strong wind and this is a word from the Sami language (Scandinavian Lapland). Funny journey of words, verbal/naming mess. We (Polish people) made the military raincoat which is called "pałatka" (two are made into a tent), and there is a word for it in English: tipi, tepee but almost everyone calls it: "lavvu" - Sams tent. So the name "polish lavuu" give's U polish sams tipi/tent ;-)
Very useful video and this very important phenomenal educational experience bushcraft channel and the video he’s makes are great amazing way to help people learning their bushcraft skills and learning activities and I am glad to supporting this phenomenal amazing man and his amazing family and and this man and his amazing family are just fantastic in the world 🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤜🏻🤜🏻🤜🏻 Justin Barbour is doing a 68 days in the wildness
The material, stitching, buttons and eyelets are very sturdy. Bought 3, two for a tent and one spare, complete with poles and pegs. Think I paid about 6 Euro each. If they had a Fjallraven fox on them they'd be about £80 each. There's a lot of bullshit in the designer outdoor gear world.

Ah nice idea. Cheers mate
Bushwacker Man no problem mate if ur useing Dylan use two tubes one for each half on a 40 degree wash in ur washing machine for best results
Shoulder capes go inside. Polish dude showed the proper way to wear and set up.
i'm really glad to see this. lavuu is new to me. i'm excited to go and try this

Sounds AMAZING! I would LOVE to see a video about your lavvu and the mods you've made!
Pics?
did you add a zip to the skirt so you can remove it and use it as a poncho still?

Nice .. Im an avid fan of hiking poles too .. In the snow the frying pan makes a great base to set the pole on

Could I stretch out fully inside (around 6 foot tall)?
Could it stand up to heavy rain without an added tarp?

its about 3.5kg, you could stretch out if you pitch the lavuu lower and yes it stands up to heavy wind and rain 👍👍

Awesome video nice set ups thanks
Excellent video about put it up, use pipes have poles you can make your own design, l saw it on Sweden channel
When using the external tripod method, what's the rough length of the poles.
The poles should be around 7 feet long 👍👍
very in informative mr bushwacker
Thanks mate
Love the set up

nice vid buddy..have you had it out in the rain??

I would like to see the shelter you can make with 1 half.
It doesn't look like you can lay down with a straight body under that Lavvu.
Are they draughty round the edges?
Yes i can, i put debris around the edges to stop the draught in windy conditions 👍👍
Beautiful bâche tarp tent j adorrrr
Great video 👍👍. Love the different options you can do.
I suppose they're cool in the summer too
Yeah you'd only use half of it though as they're so thick and dark....I use mine most like this with a small fire just within arm's reach next to a small river 😍
Funy part is, that a bunch of those could make a gigantic one, if properly piece out together. A company could just pach one tent for all guys, and be cozy about it. More guys, more fun.
Your inner tripod setup how mush did you cut off the tripod? Thanks in advance
The inner tripod poles are around 6 feet 👍👍

Knowledge of knots would help to secure or make the tent wider/taller.

In Poland, this new tent costs 13 pounds. 17 dollars
The material, stitching, buttons and eyelets are very sturdy. Bought 3, two for a tent and one spare, complete with poles and pegs. Think I paid about 6 Euro each. If they had a Fjallraven fox on them they'd be about £80 each. There's a lot of bullshit in the designer outdoor gear world.
