I’ve had my X-Mid 1p for about a year now. For my purposes, it is the best tent I’ve ever had. I camp from canoe and motorcycle. A few times, I used the guy lines on the ends, but they weren’t needed. Enjoy your tent! Courtesy of Half Vast Flying
Finally someone on you tube with the ground sheet! Just ordered mine last week to go with my new X-mid 2P that came in 3 weeks ago. All I am waiting for is my Kakwa 55 L to come in for March and I am complete! Thanks for the video from United States.
Hello John... 🤣 I was the very same as you on the lead up to recording the video. Couldn't find any info on the ground sheet so happy days. It clips to the same place as the inner 👊😁 greetings fro Ireland.
@@soletrail thanks for let me know where it clips. I contacted. Dan durston about that and he stated in April he's going to make a complete video of setup with ground sheet, inner, and everything else needed from start to finish. Last question for you, how does it fit in the bag with the ground sheet? I was thinking about picking up a sea to summit 10 liter bag to store it in because the size difference from the factory durston bag is very marginal Plus it's waterproof for $17.99 at my local store.
@@johncaban4310 howdie. I packed the ground sheet with it. I will be airing out the tent when I get home anyways. For multi day trips I will pack groundsheet in a separate small stuff sack to be honest I have a Vango Helium 1 and the bag is unreal. It has a side access Which is perfect for easy and quick packing.
I have a similar a Xmid Pro 1p for back country and motorcycle use. As many have noted, brilliant design. Yes it was expensive but it’s been a item of gear I’ve been 100% happy with. Which is rare. Very light, very small, very useable and thoughtful design. Im 6’4 and a one person tent with motorcycle gear does not feel too constricted. Two vestibules, two doors, I can sit up without hitting tent walls, I can change gear inside without issues, etc. The owners take orders or answer questions you might have. I seriously don’t think it can get better. It is an ultra light tent so obviously durability and stability have compromises. That aid I’ve had it in exposed wind storms quite a few times and it stayed standing and no damage. I do try to avoid those situations. The only thing worth noting is for a ultra light tents, they have large footprints which can come into play in small camp spaces.
My spike punctured 2 tents in a row that never got set up beyond my back yard. The wind can slowly loosen the guylines and then the spike pops out and right through the ceiling. Finally , I got an x-mid 1 pro where the poles go in handle up. just got back from an overnighter in the mountains and the tent performed flawlessly.
Though I carry poles most of the time, If I ever use them on my X-Mid Pro 1, I would use them handle up. The shock cord loop on the bottom by the floor, is meant to go around the tip as it rests against the ground and enables much better zipper operation. But I have Durston's brilliantly designed Z-Flick poles and use them with the adjustable part on top, for the same reason. The tent poles prop up my tarp, if two well spaced trees are not handy. I like to eat under a tarp, and often also bring an ultra-light hammock setup along with the tent. At 16 ounces for the tent - why not? :)
I put some fairly stiff foam in the grommet to stop the pole tip touching the outer tent. Sorted. I’ve found the tent really likes being cinched down nice and tight. All the bungee cord tie downs I’ve removed and replaced with shock cord. That has stopped a lot of excess flapping higher winds. The tent is made that strongly it can take the tension. I love it.
So far so good. Very well designed tent. Go for the solid inner. Half the door is mesh. Still plenty of air flow. Not sure how good it is in wind. When I head for a camp and know it's going to be windy I tent to bring a tunnel design tent. I will get it out for a wind thesy thou. It needs one. Brilliant tent thou.
Hi Martin , the best review I ever see ,especially when u squeeze on that little chair 😀. I was waiting to see it and I'm 100% sure this is it , will buy this tent. Thanks for review
Thank you. 😊 Yes the vestibules are massive. You could use one for your dog. Draft and vold would be the only issue so you will have to take that into account with your dogs set up. Maybe a waterproof bivvy or something. Great idea. What kind of dog? 🙂
He is a Black Lap, Australian Shepherd named Clyde. In my current tent I do a tyvek ground sheet with little mitten hooks to the fly to create a little bathtub floor with a 😊Dog sleeping bag. But it has a single vestibule so it kinda kicks my gear out when I go with the dog. I was also thinking of a tarp tent but do not like the extra pole. With my Hammock I love the fact I can store it in my bag and not on the outside. But not good with the pouch. So I trudged my 4 pound "hiking tent" with the dog plus extra. Thanks for the quick reply. I am going to pull the trigger.
The Durston is brilliant gear. The details are so well thought out. I went for the dyneema version mostly due to the increased inner space, but the 16 oz weight is a nice bonus. You are correct that these are the most sought after tents of late. Their packs are similarly well thought out, but it's insane how when they get stock in - how quickly the stock is grabbed up. I got my Kakwa 55 litter an hour after they went on sale and six ours later they were gone. He is also a great guy to deal with. Appreciate your first impressions. What did your dog say about the tent? ;)
It's great to hear your positive experience with the Durston gear! Their attention to detail and thoughtful design are indeed key factors that make them so sought after in the outdoor community. The Dyneema version, with its increased inner space and lightweight design, sounds like an excellent choice. I'm sure your observation about their gear selling out quickly is a testament to their popularity and quality. Poor ole Lex is gone. I had to put her down. She was 18 years of age. Hardest day ever. But I have a new furry friend who is enjoying it.
We did have a puncture at the top of our Durston 2p due to the spike of the trekking pole... it happened being careless taking down the tent once last season. Easy solution is to always remove the poles by grabbing them at the bottom and pulling them away before removing any stakes, allowing the tent to gently collapse. We patched the hole easy enough and this continues to be my favorite light weight tent option.
Nice video. You truly only need 4 stakes unless the weather will be stormy. I like to put a stake near the doors too that makes it easier to open the zippers and keeps side panel from flopping when door is open.
Hey Jason. Yep I hear you. Wanted to put them all in to show them in the video. Also had pegs by the door. Great design and takes the pressure off the zips.
Hi mate. Nice video. I’ve been looking at one of these for a while for a trip to the Lakes next year. How quickly did it arrive once ordered? Looks a nice bit of kit. Simon
I also saw thenMessner video about his concern for pokey poles destroying his x-mid. He uses a sleeve of some kind but I wonder if the plastic tips that go on 5e end of hiking poles would also do the trick. Something I plan to try.
The tent is designed to use trekking poles tip up. The design is solid. If you pitch the tent taut the chances of the tip coming out of the grommet are slim. There is another reason to pitch handle up if you are in an area with rats and mice: They are attracted to the salt from sweat in the handle strap. They will chew the straps to bits. I contacted Dan and he told me I can get trekking pole handle adapters from Tarptent that allow a handle up pitch. About $4 each. I ordered them and they work pretty good- not quite as good as tip up, but solid. Thanks Dan!
Hi mate... just received my xmid1 solid 😃... ordered the ground sheet as well. Does the ground sheet keep attached to the outer ? Just thinking if I can unclipp the inner and keep the rest together ? So looking forward to my first night in it 👍
@SoleTrail cheers pal. I'm based up in Lancashire and usually keep local, but wana find some trails further afield this year. Looking forward to keeping in touch pal. 👍
Back in the 80s I had a Vango Force 10 (think it was a one-person tent) ; proofed lightweight outer, polycotton (or maybe just cotton? Inner). It was a great tent for a long time, stood up to a storm that flattened 99% of tents on the campsite I was on & was completely waterproof. Eventually the inner succumbed to mildew because of condensation and almost continuous use. By today's standards it was heavy, with a ridge pole topping one large and one small inner pole, but was easy to pitch in a few minutes. The inner attached inside the outer so could be packed up first/pitched last in bad weather.
Good review. I'm anxiously awaiting the imminent delivery of the same tent, except I think it's going to be green. I didn't think of the groundsheet so will have to cut out some strong cement- covering sheet instead. Can't wait...
You should use the drone to bring you in the Guinness next time :-) Also have you thought about taking up the javelin - that was a great throw! I have the X-Mid 2P solid, and in California where generally the weather is much less damp, especially in summer. Loved the music at the end - thank you!
🤣 great idea Peter. I like your thinking. 😂😂 A lot of people are saying I should try the 2P. Looks impressive to be honest. Maybe in time 😁 thanks for the comment Sir. 👏👏👍
Been looking for a 1P tent that is lightweight but large enough for me at 6’4”. This one seems to fit the bill 😊. Great enthusiastic and well produced video. Nice job 👍
I hope you enjoy your new tent Martin - I'm enjoying mine anyway 😀 The inner is a bit narrow but the 2 good size porches help a lot. Lets have an X Mid rave gathering at some stage on a hill!
Nice review man. There's so much thought gone into the design with the main goals I believe being useability over everything else. So basically it has to work and work well. Its a beautiful looking tent too. Looking forward to see you out and about with it 👍
Hi Martin. Enjoy your videos. Can I ask what trekking poles you are using here to support the tent? Would most hiking poles work do you think? If you have collapsable poles do they fit in the bag? As someone who doesn't bring trekking poles on hikes usually, part of me is thinking is it not a pain to have to carry around poles when camping. I'm sure I can adapt though :) Thanks again!
Hey David. Thanks for the comment. I use black diamond trekking poles. Once you strap your poles to your bag you don't think about them. Tent will work with all poles. If you don't like trekking poles, Dan sells poles for this tent. Check out his website. It's an incredible tent. So happy with it. 👍🍀
Any experience with the solid version of this tent? Just wondering if the solid version would be overkill for Irish weather and be too stuffy. I prefer the colour :)
@@davidmcevoy5395 nope.. that the only one I would use. That is the normal X-Mid with the solid inner. I got this before the solid version came out which is a slightly darker green. Not stuffy. Half of the door is mesh.
Really detailed first look video Martin 👌 and looks like a brilliant tent - so many great design features. I really love the magnetic door holders, I see a hack for my Helm in the future 🤣 Really looking forward to seeing how it performs on the hill 😊👍
i m getting one . My "lightest 2 skin tent in the world " is just plain awful to erect , very very complex even with practice .Terra Nova Laser Pulse 1 is 500 grams but there is only enough room to get in the thing with no room to speak off in the tiny porch. Its not worth the aggro to save just 350 grms over the Xmid 1 which ammounts to about a third of a litre of water . So watch out for it on Ebay soon..£275 !

Its a brilliant tent. No it would be a squeeze inside of the tent. But if you can create a warm place in the vestibules. Sorted.
Are those Montane Terra pants? I have the same ones if they are
After a year's use how is the Durston fairing up? I am looking into one, not sure on what to get the solid or mesh inner.

I am right that you need 14 pegs when set up like you did?
Hey, if you want to use ever tie out point then yes.. 14. This tent can be pitched with 4. But it has many tie out options.
why doesnt the tent wall touch the ground?is it even possible keeping a taut pitch?
Most rain flys do not go completely to the ground. This allows condensation/moisture to escape while also keeping the rain out.
You can put it straight to the ground by the height of the poles. But condensation will be an issue.
Looks like a nice one 👍

Great video, but a bit on the expensive side with all the import duties etc. i wish it was available in europe.
I hear you. If they start selling in Europe it would be great.
that was helpful
Great review I will soon have 10 of these for sale end of the month if anyone is interested let me know
So funny.. everyone is going mad about them.. I wonder can they handle Irish style wind 🤔
O we will see shortly. Its meant to be very good in the wind so fingers crossed.
Oh might have to get one for summer cycling trips so!
@@kpj5 be a good candidate. Sure you can fit 6 bikes in the vestibule and a car 😁
Guy line not guide line!
i m getting one . My "lightest 2 skin tent in the world " is just plain awful to erect , very very complex even with practice .Terra Nova Laser Pulse 1 is 500 grams but there is only enough room to get in the thing with no room to speak off in the tiny porch. Its not worth the aggro to save just 350 grms over the Xmid 1 which ammounts to about a third of a litre of water . So watch out for it on Ebay soon..£275 !
Its a brilliant tent. Really excellent.
Definitely affordable....compared to Zpacks
I have the 1P nylon. Too small for me and my mini Aussie. Willing to sell it.. message me if interested.
Uniqueness is a binary quality. It means one of a kind. Something is either the only one (or type) or not. There are not degrees of uniqueness.
4 pegs. doesnt work like that. in practice, not backyard.
Way too much condensation. And way too expensive. Imo
To me its a rip off from the Sierra Design Highroute 1. I use this tent sinds 2 years.
Just posted my review of this tent as well yesterday. Awesome tent! Nice video!
I will check it out
