    The best explained and demonstrated review of the Hilleberg Soulo on You Tube.
    I have just purchased an RL Soulo in the same colour so your review was particularly relevant in helping me get the best out of it.
    So far I have only put the tent up indoors to familiarise myself with its features.
    Red pole last definitely makes attaching the clips easier.
    The weight is a small price to pay for the assurance that this tent can cope with any weather that might be experienced

    I bought a Soulo in 2018-best darned tent I’ve ever owned. The runner up is a Holubar Expedition 4-season handmade tent that I bought in the mid-1960s and finally retired in 2016. Also a super tent. Actually wore it out.

    Great tutorial! Would you advise this one for a beginner backpacker? I am planing to spend most of my days in the Alps, even on some of the more peaceful snowy winter days... how bas IS the condensation issue? What about other models like Jannu or Allak 2? Cheers from Croatia! ;)

    • @AirbornePirates
      @AirbornePirates  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Condensation is always problematic in true four season tents. Although I’ve not had any issues.
      The allak looks good! Not tried the jaanu.
      I really like a 3FUL backpack from AliExpress it’s pretty cheap and solid. It’s frameless, you can see it in some of my videos. The gold standard is Osprey but a military Bergen does the job too

    Hey great in-depth video. I’m curious as to your comment saying “2022 model” I did notice something different to my version and that’s the little flap or tag of material at the end of the vent zipper.
    I wonder if this is Hillebergs attempt at stopping water dripping through the zip clasp end during heavy wind and rain. My version definitely doesn’t have this, I had to seam seal mine to stop water egress.
    Kind Regards Lee 👍

    • @AirbornePirates
      @AirbornePirates  ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Would you reccomend biting the bullet on a Hilleberg for 4 seasons use? or to get something lightweight and cheaper like the MSR Hubba Hubba NX2 for 3 seasons use and in the future get something stronger like a Hilleberg for peace of mind

      I’ve never used MSR but hear there are quality control issues and poor customer service.
