Buddy just been watching where you battered dandelion in woods I think we all struggling but thanks for opening up to us nice to see a real man cry I look after my disabled daughter it's hard but watching you and English woodsman I'm getting out there getting my stuff together keep your chin up bud
The only tent I've pitched in lockdown was when the trouble and strife came out the shower and her towel fell off. It went up surprisingly quickly! I told the missus it was made for two people, but she thought it looked a bit small. No problem though, I went solo and was more than satisfied. Keep making the videos Hazy, it's nice just to see you. Me and some friends who haven't done anything for ages are planning a little camping trip when lockdown ends, all inspired by you. Thanks for everything dude!
i bought the lanshan 2 last year, and have been out in it twice one was on a 500 mtr hill in strong winds, and withstood what it was given,45mph id guess, its a awesome tent in my eyes. i bought a four season inner for it, again from ali express, it has less mesh about halfway down and has no seeum mesh to about half way up, £55 its even lighter than the three season inner, but havent tried it out proper yet, awesome videos keep them coming mate,
I love both tents, I have both tents. For the money they are unbeatable value. I used my Lanshan 1 when I walked the C2C but the Lanshan 2 is for me and my lovely dog when we go off a wandering:)
Thank you so much for making the time to make this comparison video! Greatly appreciated. Loved the ending for those during lockdown who got lost and were bored 🤣
Great you mentioned the lack of seam taping. The Lanshan 1 is notorious for letting water in, mainly at the anchor points in the centre of the end panels.
I’ve got these two but the other way round! Got the 1 pro and the normal 2. Gotta say I’m with you there, also in the the one pro condensation is crazy! Great vid buddy, stay safe Ash
I really like my Lanshan. Great tent that ticks all the boxes for me. I'm not a summit dwelling wild camper and like to tuck myself into the glens and nooks and cranny's . Great video. Many thanks.
Blimey.. what a great review.. I had the Lanshan 1 but immediately realised it was not for me Head Feet touched the sides.. I am 5'11".. Sold it for what I bought it for thankfully.. but I loved the design and now this.. seems the perfect warm weather tent.. great review btw will check out your others..
Lanshan 1 Pro I fit well at 6 foot. I also have the 2 "standard" for more relaxed hiking. The 1 Pro is absolutely amazing for all day hiking where as you'd said, you are just sleeping at the end of the day. Lay down, some phone time, listen to music, kindle etc. is about all can do. But the weight saving and faster setup are worth it I think. The 2 is really great if just doing something like an overnight a shortish distance and wanting to spend time in the tent or just to feel more relaxed, if you're expecting rain and to be stuck inside etc.
I have the non pro lanshan 2 with 4 season inner, I tied the footprint to the corner pull-out points of the inner, all goes in bag in one and quicker to pitch.
Id love to know what differences you notice between the pro and non pro versions? The chinglish on AliExpress makes it really hard for me to tell the difference
@@weka6533 the pro is bigger inside because it does not have an inner tent. The pro is a single skin. Hope that helps there are you tube vids comparing both if you look around.
Was just catching up on your back catalogue... Was smiling at your Ray Mears fun... He's a friend so I was telling him about a few... Bought a wry smile to his face 😁
@@HazeOutdoors yeh i know you probably think I'm taking the piss but we speak most days and have for many years... He's rarely on media he doesn't like it... So i tend to only let him know about fun or nice things
I love my 1 pro. It has a surprising amount of room in it and even though some folks complain about ventilation, by changing pitch heights and vestibule opening, you can actually get a lot of ventilation in it.
eyup hazey, i ventured on the c2c a few months after you did with my two collies. we used the old lanshan 2 and tested it in a weeks worth of downpours ( you used up all our sun by the looks). had no issues what so ever, its takes a bit of fannying around with on hilltops as you need that tension. been using it for a few years and a cracking tent. this year on my trips i fancied a freestanding tent, so bought the naturehike vik2, so looking forward to trying that out when we are allowed out to play. right on jamie
That’s a nice new tent you got there! Certainly can see the improvement points.. I’m sure you will be more comfortable in the bigger one, especially when you’re having a rainy day and need the real estate.. look forward to seeing the adventures you get up to with it Hon!! ATB ~Ruth
I used the Lanshan 2 for my 2019 Appalachian Trail thru-hike of 2200 miles, it was excellent and handled all weather from torrential rain, very high winds and snow (although it wasn’t a heavy snow fall). My only problem on a few occasions (considering I was camping in wooded areas) was that it has a large footprint so I always needed a fairly large area to set it up. That said, I would really recommend it as it was weatherproof, rarely suffered from condensation and was very very roomy.
Loves my Lanshan 2 i have it in two colors including the Khaki color ... its my go to tent. I also have the Lanshan 1 and top tip , you can improve the living space inside by using your other pole or some sticks to pull out the side walls ... its hard to describe here but theres a couple of you tube tutorials on this (i did one as well ... sorry for the mooch) it really helps with keeping the inner off your face which can be so annoying. I will be interested in seeing your experience with the Pro regarding condensation. Theres been a couple of reported incidents of condensation dropping off the tent in a cold hammering rain... but this is the case with the Z packs tents as well... so dont forget to take the ol 'Shamwow' with you! sorry you folks back over the pond are in such a hard lockdown... hopefully things will get back to normal soon. looking forward to your future adventures with the lanshan in tow... atb Dave Mc
Ahhhhh Mr Haze, I had the 2 pro for Crimbo and spent 2 nights in it. Love the ease of set up and the luxurious space. I thought it would be love at first sight but....the condensation drove me mad 😠. It is sooooo bad, even with both doors wide open. It is definitely a summer only tent as it has no protection from the wind. It’s as close to tarp camping as you will get!! I’ve just ordered the 2 with 4 season inner and have more confidence that this will be the perfect abode. Looking forward to seeing some vids with you doing an overnighter to see what you think of the waterfall effect in the morning. Keep em coming lad.
How did you find the Lanshan 2 in comparison with the pro? And did you seam seal the pro before using it in the rain? I can't decide between the two which one to buy, so any feedback is much appreciated 😁👍
@@rp8164 go for the regular Lanshan 2. In my opinion, it is a far better experience. I cannot be arsed with the breeze constantly shooting through the Pro & the mesh for releasing condensation is pretty useless. Hope that helps buddy.
@@newforestgump8926 It certainly does. Thanks for the feedback. The constant breeze sounds like a nuisance in the pro, so the original sounds better in that regard. Cheers👍
Finally bought a Lanshan 2 Pro today off a fella here in the UK and being impatient don't want to wait till next week, never mind waiting on one from Aliexpress, can't wait to get out in it and hopefully use it to walk WHW for my first long distance trail. 😁
The 60s and 70s deigns all coming back, that shape of tent was the first one I ever camped in with my dad, 50 years ago!, just shows fashion (not the technology) is a circular thing Paul
‘Rams head clip’. If you put the loops over both horns (as it were!) it secures them from coming off - in the wind for instance. Great for pegging lines on tarps. Been using them on Exped kit for years.
Lanshan 2 (non pro) user here. Absolutely top dollar tent. If you have your finger over the buy button, just do it. JY Outdoor Equipment shop on AliExpress are very well thought of.
Awesome video brother. Been deciding what light weight to go for. Just purchased the Lanshan pro 2 with the foot print using your link! Should have some northern monk tokens on the way to ya!
I've got the Lanshan 1 Plus. A bit bigger than the original, I believe the inner has the same dimensions as the 1 Pro. I've only used it for a few nights but been very impressed with it
I have Naturehike Mongar 2 planning a 5 day hike and at 2kg the Mongar while very comfortable had to go. Have bought Lanshan 1 Pro have tested in garden and I think if you had the Pro would find the head room issue is a bit better due to the single lining walls. Definitely agree there is a comfort in a larger sized tent and weight isn't too much more from the 1 Pro to 2 Pro but if you take the that philosophy soon you'll be justifying everything to yourself. Every 100g more is more fatigue on your muscles more on day three on the trail you'll be wishing you hadn't brought (or maybe glad you did for that comfort!).
Hi Hazy, one mod I made to my Lanshan 2 Pro, was to add a bungee from the guy point in the middle to the middle of the netting to lift it up so condensation runs through the netting instead of down it into the tent. Zpacks Duplex has a similar thing as standard.
Thanks Haze been looking at this one, where is the beer? Good seeing you bro. Happy 17th! I been concerning myself with family since the Chinese virus. Got my shots and getting the hell out of town my first chance camping. Still think your the shit stay cool bro we are going to win this one....sorry haven't visited but very mind blowing with this pandemic. Still love your videos and your girl friend.
Lansham 1 PRO is a nice comprimise. Bigger than the Lansham 1 without being the same size as the 2. There's a nice trick you can do with the guy lines where you pitch it out over a branch or your second walking pole and it will give you more height over the head or feet.
Hi. I'd be very grateful of you can let me know where you got the metal "rams head" clip from. Thanks - great videos by the way, I'm always tuning in. Thanks again. James
You keep teasing us not saying exactly what long-distance hikes you're planning! ;) I'm really looking forward to seeing what cool walks you get up to this year (hopefully!)
Now then Lucy what do you mean “that messner with double s guy better to look at” . It’s about tents and camping not going on a date . Paul messner is a very experienced blogger and very in formative and a real bloke , very calm , and tells the truth as it is .
What lightweight tent are you using at the moment and do you recommend it?
Still using a Luxe Minipeak 2. Cracking little thing.
I’ve got the msr access 3 massive interior very impressed with it at the moment
One Tigris smokey hut, its super light and there's plenty of room. And you can Chuck in your winnerwell stove if it gets nipples.
I have the Non Pro Lanshan 2, Love it, a few grams heavier than the pro but prefer the double wall.
Marmot Crane Creek 2 person. Entry either side, small vestibule, quick easy set up and lightweight. Great three season tent for the money.

Great review. For me it's a no brainer. At just 100g extra weight, the Lanshan 2 Pro is the better all round option. Love the colour also.
You have recently became my favourite youtuber started watching all your videos and followed you on instagram :) keep up the good work lad!

I was quite satisfied with the Lanshan 2, I bought the Lanshan 1 4 seasons. Theoretically staying warmer with the smaller interior volume.
Always interested in reducing payload weight, necessity as you get older. The tent info was useful. Thanks.

Great review!! The 2 Pro looks the ticket. By the way, thats got to be a North Yorks accent right? Im guessing York :-)
Guessing your not saying, but which long distance hikes you planning? I'm hopefully doing the cape wrath trail in may, if Nicola lets me in.
I liked the video at "speaking of seems" :D Thanks for the review, mate!
Lansham 1 PRO is a nice comprimise. Bigger than the Lansham 1 without being the same size as the 2. There's a nice trick you can do with the guy lines where you pitch it out over a branch or your second walking pole and it will give you more height over the head or feet.
Also, glad I'm not the only one who had issues with the toggle on the lanshan 1 😂 honestly the arguments I had with it pre-coffee in the mornings!
I nearly pressed the button on the lanshan but very nervous about how it would perform in bad weather....certainly not in the mountains in winter.
