Nice review. Still not a whole lot of info or reviews on this particular bivy, but this really helped seal the deal for me, as you showed the ample space inside and I also love the tent pole design and weather flap near the head area which seems like such a great idea to still allow you to vent well to avoid too much condensation issues even in some rainy or snowy weather. Thanks!
It's now 2 years, 1 month since you created this video & as of today, there is only one other youtube video on this Bivy. I read all the replies which were just as interesting as your video.
Wow! I love it They probably didn't ship a bunch of free ones to people like other companies. I paid good money for mine. But I really think it was the best choice. Thanks for commenting that. I had no idea.
Looks good. The fact that it's breathable is good. It almost sounds like gortex. I imagine the best practice would be to pitch a small tarp over it for when the rain is substantial. All these breathable water resistant fabrics wet out at some point. I think any bivvy that can stand alone in heavy rain is going to be full of condensation. Just my two cents.
Over a year&a half later and still no other reviews. Thanks to this awesome review vid, a whole new world of sota has peaked more hobby survival interests. Your fun candor has earned you another subscriber, but I don't see this bivy in your videos. Anything negative to this bivy? and does it setup fine w/ just the one tent stake at the head? Thanks.
Found your geary type videos, awesome stuff, glad to see ur still getting use of it. Just curious if using w/out pole structure cowboy style works& if single steak lazy style works?.. Super cool channel!
Thank You!. Yes it works great. I took it to Mt Whitney and used it at Trail Camp. It is in that video. ua-cam.com/video/MtQc9T2kr3M/v-deo.html I need to get out more often and film it. Been pretty busy with work and SAR.
why NO 2nd review after testing in rain? I went onto your channel to check your playlist to see if there were further reviews. Nope? I don't understand. You r review is only the 2nd one, atleast you could do would be to update your 1st review as you stated you would. Thank you.
Your Right. Timing rain in California and day off opportunities became a challenge. I have some grass now in the backyard so Ill set up the sprinkler system one night and do the review. I did use this on my Mt Whitney trip and had some snow. I was happy with it. When I post a video, Ill come back and post the link. I really thought people would have reviewed the crap out of this one. Thanks.

I wish they would make it, in Forest Green....
I just bought the Rab Ridge raider about to post my second test video this weekend. I love bivvys
Very nice bivy! I was thinking about getting that one, but went with the Paria Bivy instead.
Very Cool!! I had to look up that bivy and your video popped up on the youtube search. Real Sweet!
Thx for the great video! Is it possible to use without wires and ground stakes ?
Yes. But it would negate the great breathable design and water runoff.

True!
I hope it does well in the rain. I really like the design
Me too. Im testing it this week before I take it to mt Mt Whitney. Supposed to rain here for 2 days. Although i will only deal with snow there. Lol
Awesome! I hope you have a chance to do a video on it
@@jonshelton7633 Definitely planning on it.

Think this might work with a helinox cot? Could I just use longer pieces of cord to stake it down?

Ground sheet necessary?
No. Its tough.
I was wondering the same thing. Now we both know.
