Mate, don't for 1 second think you don't deserve that nomination! The time and effort (and CASH!) you've put into this channel is clear to see. You really keep it real, no snobbery or falseness. You brought your viewers along for the ride since the start and we get to see you f**k up and learn along the way!! Smashing it
I’ve been using the Wild Country Helm 2 lately. It’s a great tent for that price range. Loads of room for one person. Seems pretty solid. Had it out on Silver How in terrible weather and it was fine.
Done. You can skip through the categories. It only takes a minute. Thanks for taking the time and also helped me remove the Taiji 1 tent from my shortlist of next tents. My Helm 2 is battered and looking at something a bit more lightweight (nearly 60 now ). Looking at trecking pole, Heddon 1, Lanshan 1 and Tarpstar 1 also got my eye on the Wildcountry Panecea 1. Any advice from anyone appreciated. Cheers Sel
Liam you definitely deserve to be nominated , your videos are amazing and so full of content and ive learnt a lot from you and I feel when I get out next year on my 1st wild camp with my teenage son I will feel quite confident , you will definitely be getting my vote
When we first took our kids camping we bought a 6 man £99 tent the tents got bigger and bigger and more expensive till we ended up with the Kyham Indiana 8 we camped for over 20 years as a family and our middle son 29 has camped his way along the silk route Great video ❤
Good luck with TGO film maker award, love the content of your videos, very entertaining, great original sound tracks too!...there's only one winner IMO. 👍
I've voted. Nice video Liam, I just got another 3F UL floating cloud, I did not like the Taigi 2 as it is little heavier and also the set up process, I e inner and outer can't be separated easily
Voted. How many of those other dudes write, play and record their own music? None, I’d warrant. Your films are of insane high quality and watchability.
I bought a Hilleberg Rogan during lockdown with my furlough money (let’s face it, I couldn’t go out and spend it!). They sell it as a three season two person tent and I bought it for cycle touring. What a superb piece of kit! The first time i used it in Scotland a freak storm blew up about five minutes after I pitched it - lashing rain and fierce winds for about two hours. An MSR near me snapped two poles but all I suffered was one of the guys got very slightly loose! It will genuinely take two people (although I’ve not tested that yet but it’s huge inside) and has two vestibules so I can put my wet gear in one as well as my four panniers and still have room to cook comfortably in the other. I think they will bury this one with me 😂
Vote done, very well deserved. Nice to be recognised for your hard work & effort. I'd just like to thank you for this channel, I can't think of a single negative about any of your output this year, great mix of content, great editing & your music is absolutely bang on. ATB
Voted. Definitely deserved, some of your vids have been unreal, the one up Ben Nevis in the snow was amazing. Love your attitude, your channel is well named, and it’s plain to see how much effort you put in. Onwards and upwards mate. 👍
@ They’ve just brought out a 1P dome, lightweight tent which looks pretty good. Keep up The good work, only been following you recently but one of my fav outdoors channels. I’m trekking Mount Toubkal in Morocco in Feb which I’m looking forward too, your recent vid cemented why it’s a good one to do.
I’ve got the rl soulo in sand and it’s never been close to letting me down. I do want the lanshan2 to start taking my son camping. He’s only turning 5 in Feb so he can’t carry kit. Love your videography style and personality in the videos Liam. I will 100% be on the link and voting as soon as this videos finished. Alb Stephan
Quality Liam. I got the red Hilleberg Soulo black label this year. Only reason I did was because all my other tents are green. Looks amazing in Red against most backdrops. 👍🏼
A great insight into your tents Liam. I have the Cloud Up 2 and while I don't camp in some of the condition's you do, I would probably rate it a little higher. And you got my vote, so best of luck.
You've done a lot of hard work this year, stand outs for me were Snowdownia since that's my local, the three peaks challenge and France, so the vote is well deserved keep up the good work. I'd think you'd have a good chance of swapping your Soulo for a red one, Sand seems to be the most popular colour and I've seen people comment that red tents are harder to sell. It makes sense to go red if you're doing winter summit camps.
This was a trip down memory lane 😊 I remember that first tentative camp in the woods and I remember each of those tents. You can be very proud of yourself Liam, you have made this channel into what it is today 💪 I have already voted for you 👍 it has been a pleasure to follow your journey, cheers mate and God bless you Liam 😊👍🙏
The cloud up 2 was the reason I found your channel. Was looking for reviews, since I wasn't sure if I should buy it. Your review was the reason I bought it and i still think it's perfect for bikepacking - if everything goes to plan I'll use it for my Salzburg to Monaco/Cannes bikepackingtrip next year.
Voted 😁Good Luck Liam, you deserve to win and cheers for another belting video . I don't know how I came across your videos, but I have binge watched all of them now . I started camping and rambling again in August because of you ( I'm a 65yrs young Lancastrian) having lived 'down South' for the last 30yrs and can't wait to get back out there when the weather improves. Thank You so much for all your invaluable tips , advice , straight talking and the belly laughs guaranteed. every week 🤣I really appreciate how much work you put into your videos, belting stuff, You're a good bloke, take care 👍
Voted, such a great channel Liam. Deserve the nomination and maybe the win??? Voted for a bunch of other stuff i had no clue about, so good luck to them too 😂
Me and B have thrown out votes in mate. You deserve to be there and we'll have our fingers crossed 🤞🏼 So the list........the bonfus is a thing of beauty. An absolute piece of art that thing. Cannot wait for the hiking season to warm up again so we can see it out and of course, use ours 😁 Adge and B
I really enjoyed listening to your thoughts on all the tents you’ve used. Would you ever consider testing the Wold country helm compact 2? I would be interested how you would rate it.
17:35. Of course, the Bonfus, knew it. Can't list my top 5 category tents because I've only got two tents. What's definitely 'Not for me' anymore, is a 3kg orange polyethylene 'construction site' tarp, which my brother and I, also solo, used for forest camping long ago. Almost sold one kidney for my green Soulo (yes, superior colour mucho mas!) which will last me the next decade, so covered there. The Lanshan 2 looks like nice, seen that one in lots of vids. Great for starting hiking in summer and of shoulder seasons. Roomy, decent and affordable option. Props on the award, ✅
Good luck with the Competition mate ! I just gave you my vote even though you did the cloud peak dirty haha Though to be fair the zip is a bit toilet and id never take it up a munro personally 😆 . Keep doing your thing Liam , i always look forward to your videos coming out
You had me worried there for a minute but I disagree about the sand colour. My BL Soulo is green and I wish I’d got the sand colour. Red is great in the snow but sand is the best when camping discretely. I voted for you, good luck 👍
You're my favourite channel. You've got my vote! I'd love it if you won, as you DO make the overall best videos in this genre, if not any genre. Mad skills bruv!! Bless 👊 😎
Cracking list of tents , it just shows there is no cheap tent to do all seasons , more you pay the more it will take . For probably 90% off people £200 is gonna do you well , nice one fella 👍 Atb Col Outdoor Gear Essentials
Slapped down the vote. It's great watching the content. ,But hey the the Taji been great in heavy rain, wonder if the Night Cat rebrand has missed a process? 😢

Awesome content. Inspiring and funny - what more do you want. Ever thought about giving the South West Coast Path a go?

All voted mate. I too love my Soulo BL. Served me well a couple of weeks ago on Nethermost Pike. Keep up the good work ⛺️👍
Voted for you pal - love your stuff
I really enjoyed listening to your thoughts on all the tents you’ve used.
Would you ever consider testing the Wold country helm compact 2? I would be interested how you would rate it.
17:35. Of course, the Bonfus, knew it.

Almost sold one kidney for my green Soulo (yes, superior colour mucho mas!) which will last me the next decade, so covered there.
The Lanshan 2 looks like nice, seen that one in lots of vids. Great for starting hiking in summer and of shoulder seasons.
Roomy, decent and affordable option.
