  • Camping on a campsite with Family & Friends. Scenery was amazing! Not a wild camp but a great camp!
    Not much Audio in this one as this was a Family Camp. (sorry for those who hate these videos)
    The weather really came down on the last day so due to the rain I could not record!

    Shame about not recording the setup or packing away.
    I recognised Llangollen but where was the campsite? It looked basic but nice.
    Great video

    How much do you pump up the air tubes? I’ve done them to 4.5 and 5.5 as the manual says, but they still seem very soft. On our outwell tent the air bars are rigid when inflated?

    Hi! We’ve just had a look at this tent in a show room today and really liked it but the lack of bedroom pods put us off a little. Mainly for extra insulation (double layer) and in case of inner condensation as it’s just the one canvas/outer tent layer. Did you find it cold or damp at all? Loved watching your camping trip video. That river looks so idyllic!

    • @wildbadgertrek

      Hey ! In all honesty I wasn’t cold but I guess this would depend upon the weather conditions. The weather picked up at night and rained (this is why I didn’t manage to capture putting the tent down) I was toastie warm and I didn’t notice any condensation. I love the fact this tent is so different to other tents - hope this helps :)

      On the valves make sure you push them in so they come out for when you inflate them.
      Happy camping!!

      Thanks for your video! We have been thinking about getting this Tipi tent for ourselves. Also, thank you for apologising for your mate and his misogynistic, idiotic tounge waving on the video. It is not appropriate for men to do this. Just shows their level of maturity. Anyways, enjoyed the rest of your video!😊

    I bought this and yet to pitch it. Does it come with a decent pump or should I buy one? in your Hein site.
    We bought the extra awning for shelter etc.
    Also does the tent come with poles for the front door awning? Thanks

    • @wildbadgertrek
      @wildbadgertrek  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Peter poles don’t come with the tent for the door awning… pumps decent tbf mate 👍🏼 pump the middle chamber first to 50% and then the other two chambers to 50% once you start to get the shape of the tent pump them to full capacity.. the awning looks brilliant … I will be purchasing one at some point! …. Only down side to this tent is that it doesn’t come with pockets in the bedroom area and I believe it could do with a few more air vents but overall I think this is a fantastic tent I love it!

    • @MrKinglory

      if you have a kampa gale inflation pump it doesn't have the correct adapter. using the hand pump is not a chore though. Great tent, very impressed it has lower level vents too.
