For the fox products in some video frames, respect. I must say you know how business needs to be done with respect to opponents. Well done 👍 I am all yours 😊
The bivvy is so close to being perfect. There are a couple of things wrong with it that in my opinion that stop it from being perfect. First is the rear windows. They need to be able to be opened from inside with inner zips. It looks like the mesh part is stitched in permanently. For the sake of another couple of zips i'm surprised to didn't include this option. You did on your HQ Dual Layer bivvy which is what i currently have and it's a great feature. Feels like you went backwards on this a bit. The second thing is the Velcro rod holders. It looks like you can't use them if you have the skull cap/peak attached. Surely there could've been a work around for this? I'm sure the velcro straps could be fitted elsewhere on the bivvy with a bit of ingenuity or even on the skull cap? A zip in ground sheet would also be amazing but everyone says that :)
I have passed this on to our product team. The stormcap also features its own rod straps so you still have some to use with the skull cap on. Our inner capsule offers you a fully integrated groundsheet for sealing out any nasties.
@@AvidCarpFishingTV Oh the skull cap has them as well? Well that's good! I couldn't see them in the video. If you make the rear windows openable from the inside i'll buy one! :) When are they for sale anyway? Thanks
Have to say and I don't usually comment and I'm a fox lover, but u guys are always upping your game , really are , some really great stuff there and I'll be honest , just all looks a lot easier less I dunno sales pitchy than fox's recent product release...Will be investing for sure as all the stuff I have of yours so far I can't fault
Im struggling to find stock for this but when ever available take my money ive looked at loads of different bivvys from the fox frontier and nash titan how ever this one as definitely caught my eye
Has there been a problem with the evo bivvy? Been reading a lot of comments on UA-cam of people complaining that they’ve ripped it trying to set it up as rhetorical material is too tight! I really want to buy one but what I’ve read has really put me off
Some good looking products, I have the HQ2 and the benchmark sleep system.. both have stood me for years..but I do like the look of the new sleep system. How much?
Please keep in contact with your local Avid Stockist who can keep you updated with when they expect the Elevates in stock. We do still have a Facebook page facebook.com/avidcarppage
@@AvidCarpFishingTV ok I must be blocked from seeing the Facebook page then as can’t get on it , I know a year or 2 back I was stopped from commenting on their as I must of posted something avid didn’t agree with and stop me commenting on any post they made but I could still see the page now I can’t even see when I put Avid Carp in the search bar on their
inherently with the additional foot the blanks are thicker at the base however this is completely normal for the correct blank taper. They are still a slim blank even in the 13ft 3.75lb model.
@@AvidCarpFishingTV thank you so much for your answer. There's No dealership in my Location so i cant have a Look at the Rods and have to buy them online. I will Go for them surely!

A far cry from a Tempest if you ask us, Completely flat back, porch area, quick lock sprung elbows just to name a few significant improvements over a Tempest
Just noticed at 2:00 that the groundsheet doesn't go all the way up to the door. It looks like it stops short about 7 inches. What is the logic here? When i'm in my bivvy i don't want to see any of the exposed ground. That's why i use a ground sheet. I don't get it?
This is simply due to the way we have pegged it out in the video, with the storm flaps and pegged with a more straight down front, the groundsheet completely covers the inside of the shelter
All these cool bags made for cans or bottles of beer , cant never stand a 4 pint of milk up in them but i can take a 6 pack of beer and sleep through a run ;)
The internal dimensions of the Stormshield Deluxe Cooler are - H23 x W21.5 x L40cm and the RVS Cool Bags are, Medium - (H25 W25.5 L27cm) Large - (H29 W25 L37.5cm)
The xl-plus bivvy (first item on the vid) looks like a really excellent design and spec. A bit underwhelmed by the new rods - completely ‘anonymous’ design, graphics and specs. It doesn’t seem like Avid want to push the limits of tech, or promote them? (And I state this as a very happy owner of three Avid rods) Seriously, not one but two new rods, and they get a total of less than two minutes in the video….😮?
Don’t worry, we will have additional content coming for each new product, this video was just to outline the key features of each product on the launch.
Is there a social cap / extension front in the pipeline lads ,, perfect set up then , and hopefully you will keep the price realistic too ,not like Fox and the utter garbage frontier prices
solid doors either side of the main door, so disappointing. just have what all good bivvys have a have a roll up door with mozzi mesh underneath to let air through and be able to see out while laying down..
@@AvidCarpFishingTV two separate things..thats why I said I didn't like it in my message ... it's just greedy. just have a door you can roll up to reveal mozzi mesh,rather that keep changing the whole front
We have got some more affordable shelters in the range which are still packed with features such as the Revolve Bivvies and Revolve Brolly System. The EXO + is a little more pricey than these Revolve shelters however, the equivalent shelter from most other companies carries a £700+ price tag and doesn't include items such as the storm cap and insect panel as standard.
oh god...not mozzi mesh under the main door either ...is that so you can just make money selling a separate mozzi front that can't be covered up if it rains..this penny pinching is so sad, you are making enough out of the bivvy..
@@AvidCarpFishingTVhow many attachment points are there for the inner capsule ? I always buy a bivvy with a inner vapour shield , they really work no need for exterior skull cap . Never get any condensation
The 1 man revolve bivvy looks good for the size and price. I have seen comments that it is a nightmare though to collapse down. Has this been addressed with the new stock and has any updates been addd to the revolve for the updated stock? If so, when are they being released ?
The EXO Bivvy takes inspiration from many quick errect shelters on the market, merges them together, and then adds innovative additions such as the spring locking self-locating Elbows
All the plastic parts are GRP. This is actually stronger in most cases than mental however, even this GRP is reinforced with metal plates to ensure the bivvy is tough and will last for years to come

We would have to disagree. It features a flat back and an integrated peak. Two key features amongst other that the mentioned product doesn’t have. In our opinion development is about taking inspiration from popular products on the market and making improvements to their design.

Great bivvy!
Bivvy was so close to being perfect, a zip in ground sheet would of pushed it over the top.
My thoughts exactly. Disappointed you cant do the air vents from inside the bivvy too 😞
One is available as an addition. It’s literally on the video.
Exactly!!!!
