Interesting! You’re the first person I’ve ever met with that opinion!! What do you prefer?

@GearGarden Yes I'm wondering if I might have got a duff one or if my expectations of 4.8 was wrong. I have had to revert back to my xTherm which has a higher Rvalue but isn't anywhere near as comfortable. I live in England so I naively thought that the Big Agnes would withstand our mostly mild Winters but alas no. But it's not a complete waste. I'll start using it in April.

Thank you buddy! I’m glad you enjoyed it!!

Still my main tent! It performs so well in the wind dude. Had it in 40-50 plus mph winds and rain and it doesn’t budge much at all!

@GearGarden that's great to know that it will hold up to use in the weather we typically expect in the uk mountains. Do you feel it is has enough space for you? I am planning on using it with a 26 inch wide pad. Did you purchase the groundsheet with it? Any negatives with the tent?

Super durable! Doesn’t bend to much! No mods at all! Just staked out all sides! And I use the big Agnes rapide SL insulated! Best pad in the game!

Great do you think it has enough space for you or you think the 2 person is better? I would order the 1 person because it is lighter

@ I mean if you like having tons of extra space then sure! But I put all my gear and pack in my one person! If you’re not used to it it will be an adjustment but after a few nights you’ll be set dude!

@@GearGarden many thanks. I am really interested to know if it fits a regular wide sized sleeping like the therm a rest neoloft (73 by 26 inches). Do you have any idea if it fits the wide sleeping pads?

@ yeah that’s what size I use in it! No issue

Very strong in wind! Had that thing in multiple 40-50 plus mph winds, no issue at all

ALWAYS! Hahaah

I 100 percent recommend it dude!! It’s worth it and it’s super cheap!

I agree! I love this tent the most by far of any tent I have owned/ used

Yes you can!

Thank you so much! I appreciate that! Haha it’s a great tent!

😂😂😂

Wow! Thank you so much! I really appreciate that! Can’t wait to dive into your videos later!!!

Yeah they really are! Yeah these are always on sale and I feel like more people should use them. This tent has done zero wrong to me! I love it, by far my favorite tent I own! Thank you for watching!

@@GearGarden I needed a 3 person tent but wanted a tent that fit 3 25" wide pads. I would have to buy a Copper Spur 4 person tent. MSR has a redesigned Hubba Hubba 3 person tent that will fit 3 25" wide pads but it's $650. Ended up buying an REI half dome 3 person for $240 plus it comes with a footprint. It's a little over 5 lbs. without the footprint, so splitting it 3 ways makes it kinda ultralight.

@ that’s also a great tent! I had the 3 person one you got, and for the weight it’s basically a solid backpacking tent for sure

Surprisingly yes! You can tell they are not as low of a denier count as in the material and mesh is a little heavier, but it’s a durable tent for sure

Yeah and then they upcharge!

It truly is!

Thank you so much!!

I love the 1p!! But if you do love having tons of room, get the 2p!

Thank you! You should! It’s cheap and goes a long way

It’s super dope! Got to use it on the trail last night! I think it’s worth it! Can flatten it and use it as a dehydrated food hot bag as well! At least for the larger sized pot bag like I have!

I love your two!! I agree! Mine sounds like a spaceship launch lol

That’s a kick ass setup too brother! Haha the trusty BRS hahaha

Thanks buddy!

Thank you so much!

Nice!! I’m staying at wildcat in a little over a week! Backpacked out there almost 15 times this year haha I love it there

What dates will you be there? I’m backpacking in there this Friday night- Saturday, then next week going back for another Friday Saturday trip!

@@GearGarden no kidding? Im at coast on 9/26 and sky the next night

@@GearGarden it’s the best, man. Big Sur is great coast camping too. Only been once but now I know a couple killer spots. Almost desert camping season!

@@Norcalhighker damn I’m at sky on the 27th!!! But I’ll be arriving to the parking lot at like 7!

I haven’t seen that! I would be interested in doing that for sure, mostly to make it better and better! It surprised me as to how well it is built to where the frame makes it so you don’t need them! But I am interested in that!

@@GearGarden I gotta see how the unbound carries with that one stay in the back vs. the 2 in the southwest. There’s a couple straps on the shoulders people have been using g-hooks to attach the load lifters. One guy did a clean job and one guy used electric tape. Both certainly have their merits 😆

I have yet to try that pad out! Sounds like a new review coming soooooon

Yeah this video the audio was all messed up haha

I have not!! Have you?

@@GearGarden no, I have not purchased a pack yet and need something that is versatile, comfortable, and most will be able to be scaled down to fit into international carry on. I have an Osprey farpoint 40 that is extremely uncomfortable with any weight but checks the other boxes

Ok I’m glad I’m not the only one who has had as much water issues! Haha it works ok if I’m going on trips where I’m super dialed and bring minimal gear, but the big trips with a bigger bear can it’s harder! I love this pack though dude. It might just be becoming my new favorite. It’s so hard. This thing is a true work horse! What do you like most about it?

@@GearGarden Honestly, I just like the simplicity of it and having somewhat confidence that my gear won't get soaked in some light rain. I'm planning my first ever thru-hike of the Appalachain and I know the weather tends to be unpredictable on it. I kinda just wish it had some extra straps on the bottom to attach a foam sleeping pad...

@@dmar0652 that’s so exciting dude!! I’m jealous!!! I would love to go out there! What year you bringing???

@@GearGarden That's a really interesting question because I'm currently re-thinking most of my gear for the trail. Right now my big three are the big agnes tiger wall 2p, nemo tensor insulated, nemo switchback, nemo disco sleeping bag, and hyperlite southwest 55. I'm considering switching that tensor pad out for a gossamer gear 1/8" foam pad and just stacking the pads. I'll switch the disco bag out for an EE Enigma quilt. I really want to trade out the big agnes tent for a durston X mid 1p pro but I'm not sure if I'm ready for that investment yet. I'll be setting off this time next year, so the temperatures will definitely be colder but that tends to be how I prefer it. I did a bunch of summer backpacking this year and it just wasn't nearly as nice as the fall and winter season for me.

@@GearGarden I'm actually still in the process of finding a hiking buddy so if you know anyone planning on hiking the AT, please lmk.

I’ve used it consistently for almost a year now. I love it, no issues! I for sure recommend it

It’s up in downiville!

Highly recommend 😎

Yeah it’s super legit!!! I highly recommend!! Thanks for watching!!

This one is perfect my friend! They are on sale currently so I’d jump on it asap!!’ Thank you so much for watching and subing 😄

@@GearGarden Loved it! Well done man!

Dude! It was great to meet you too bro!!’ Hit me on ig! Lets chat!! @geargarden916

😂😂😂

what kind of foam backpacking mattress?

@@fabianperez4189 It's a Nemo Switchback...Not as comfy as an air mattress but more comfy than a 1/8" pad I suppose.
