Bought a sonic Vader X rod the other week, after two sessions I must admit I’m impressed and buying two more I’ve got the 12ft 3lb test curve option Brilliant for £45
@@carpologytv ive been using the airflow bivvy for a few year's now, been great but it's getting a bit tired now. In your 0pinion which bivvy the sonik asx or the sonik extractor, gives me the most room inside as they look very similar. Hope you can help as I can't find a tackle shop with one up to view, video's I'm edging to the extractor,but still unsure cheers
Why wouldn't you need a ground sheet or front panel for a quick over nighters, what if its pissing it down? And there's nothing quick about an over nighters, it is what it is.
I have the Nash titan hide camo pro XL And honestly it’s the best bivvy I’ve ever had, anything I’ve ever brought from sonik besides the rods, have never lasted especially their reals 👎In my opinion Nash really thinks about their products. I know it’s not the cheapest but it’s honestly worth spending a little more for a better quality product especially if u use it a lot and put it through harsh weather. I live in cali and let me tell u being able to have 4 mesh windows all around saves me from a heat stroke in the summer, lots of airflow when u need it. That’s just my opinion
had it for about 3 months now its actually a propper decent bit of kit only complaint i have is that the doorway is a little small im 6ft and getting in and out can be a pain but even worse when you sit on your bedchair all you see is the roof lol
Awesome video as always😎 my go to channel before buying any gear worth a few quid 💷 it’s a nice looking bivvy sonik got a nice finish to a lot of there products but personally I’m torn between the sonik axs camo & the nash hide camo pro either way can’t wait to do my first 24 on the bank 🙌🙌
Bottom line you get what you pay for pay peanuts for a cheap bivvy nine times out of ten it leaks something breaks etc. I got the Nash Titan xl Camo pro expensive yes but it’s a quality peace of kit easy to set up, pack away rock solid in stormy weather no complaints with it at all 👍
@@Apctrucker80 That doesn't make a great deal of sense. Better air circulation will do more to reduce condensation than a more waterproof material. A greater hydrostatic head will be a heavier, more densely woven material which will be inherently less breathable and it will create a larger differential temperature between inside and outside which will lead to more condensation.
@@DjDolHaus86 it's the same HH as the trakker V2 and it's awful material takes forever to dry out and the condensation is ridiculously personally I'd spend an extra 100 quid and get a hide
qs défauts majeurs: * pas de fenêtres anti moustique en facade * Toile hiver évite la condensation que sur le toit et le reste sera mouillié * Toile trop fine ou voit le jour donc vous serez réveillé dés que le soleil se léve *Pas de fenêtre transparente en facade essentiel l'hiver quand il n'ya pas de lumiére *Tapis de sol trop fin donc ne dure pas dans le temps se déchirera vite avec sol caillouteux ou le poids du bedchair et son propriétaire avec le temps avec les coupelles qui ont tendance a écraser le tapis de sol toujours au même endroit donc en resume produit mal pensé :(
Do yourself a favour, save some more money and a buy a Hide or something else. I've gone through two of these in six weeks. The first one, a seam ripped while pegging out and the bag teared. The second one, which I've just asked a full refund for, one of the poles snapped as I fanned it out. And I'm not a big or strong man or heavy handed. Been carp fishing for 13 years now and never experienced such an awful bivvy.
What an absolutely poor product. I've had 5000hh before and the condensation that gets in even with a skullcap is a joke. The best out there for the price is the avid hq 60inch oval brolly system. It's 20,000hh with an inner capsule which keeps all moisture at bay. Regardless of the weather.
@@pietertjeapd7459 same thing. But if you wanna buy cheap crap. Then you'll buy twice. That is the most shocking piece of kit I've seen. This isn't the dark ages. There's better products out there at the same price.
do not buy one they are made very poor. I've used mine twice and I've had to re,do the locking nuts and stitch the bits back on the top of the bivvy that holds the poles on. SHOCKING 😡😡😡😡😡
Looks like a cheap peice of tat,thin as well the light Poor's through,I wish they would just stop trying to invent the wheel,it seems like every other month new rods and reels are out it all just bollocks
Brilliant video thanks
Cheaper than a Nash Hide XL, which it basically is. Looks a nice bit of kit.
Looks decent 👍 I’ve been pretty negative with some of the bits you’ve been advertising recently so it’s good to see a nice change
I'm impressed 👍

Just don't buy the bite alarms, the batteries don't even fit correctly in the back lol
The reels are good as well all sonik stuff is for the budget friendly angler but with style 👍
@@AndrewLomax80 they do if you put em the right way 😂
Great bivvy 👍
Luke very professional review mate, you have definitely up your game since the new guy started, shame you didn't have your glasses on
@@justinsteel6360 Only you are calling it a review, the title says unboxing...
Wish I'd waited instead I bought a Fox R series xl ,nightmare to put up and disassemble

Best get saving then , looks a great bit of kit .
Needs a winter wrap to be available for colder nights
Great video. Now I know what bivvy I want. What's the headroom like. I'm only 5'7".
Not bad for the money material looks thin though but decent for the warmer months 🔥👍🏻
Shop around for the Titan Hide - best value on the market in my opinion
Titan hide 200£ more
Why wouldn't you need a ground sheet or front panel for a quick over nighters, what if its pissing it down?
And there's nothing quick about an over nighters, it is what it is.
Is the ground attachable at bottom stop rats errrhhhhaaagghh hates rats in my bivvy
I can never understand why they never make the groundsheets so you can zip them in place if you want one.
@@richpeas1924 yep better then velcro never matches up properly zip much better
Looks like the nash hide

Just bought the xl camo pro hide thoughts on it pros cons?
all nash gear is cheap chinese shit
Is this the XL ?
had it for about 3 months now its actually a propper decent bit of kit only complaint i have is that the doorway is a little small im 6ft and getting in and out can be a pain but even worse when you sit on your bedchair all you see is the roof lol
Exact same problem as the hide
how is it holding up?
Have you had any dramas with it a year in?
@tomkershaw5245 yeh tbf mate the stitching on the ongoing points came away pretty fast it'd gone now
Very nice, shame i just bought a 100T :D could of saved myself a lot of pennies if i knew this was due!
if you can afford it you'd be mental to have anything sonik over trakker mate. You definately get what you pay for when it comes to sonik
The trakker is definitely a better option
Would a nash ss3 wide fit inside and still have room for table and all the luggage?
Do they do a 2 man size?

I'd get the hide camo pro I've got the xl version it shits all over the sonic axs and trakker bivvys in the same price range
@@jordfoth tbf mate I was leaning towards that one anyone cracking looking bivvy 👌 thanks for cementing my decision 🔥
@@notbrock4634 don't get me wrong yea the extras ain't cheap but it'll last for years if you looknafter it
@@jordfoth tbh you got me looking at the xl 😂I ain’t the tallest guy tho reakon it’s worth the dollar just for the extra room ?
@@jordfoth I’m getting the xl for 60 quid extra it’s no brainier
If its anything like my reels then you can keep it

🤦🏼♂️
Why are you wasting 11 minutes of your time then?
@@pietertjeapd7459 your comments are completely worthless
Key board warriors don’t you luv em 🤣🤣
Typical Nash buyer, always thinks Nash is the best and goes around wearing blinkers. If it's not Nash then it's not worth buying 🙈🙈🙈
Isnt it just a Nash titan hide
Yea just wandering materials
Oh look another bivvy, where would we be without 'another' bivvy release
Looks like a nice bivvy, bit disappointed that is only 5000HH , personally I think you need at least 10,000HH .
Why, were you planning on bivvying up under a waterfall?
@@DjDolHaus86 no , i have personally found with lower HH you get more condensation.
@@Apctrucker80 I find the same mate! Reckon the skull cap should sort that tho
@@Apctrucker80 That doesn't make a great deal of sense. Better air circulation will do more to reduce condensation than a more waterproof material.

Pretty much a hide
Not showing us how to take it down?
touché! 😄
5000 HH, plastic bin bag then.
Looks like a cracking bivvy! 👌 what are the advantages from this over the axs range? Would you consider using this over them?
The axs is way bigger! I prefer the new one
I prefer the axs bivvy. More room with a small enough footprint.
Why didn't you weigh it before unpacking it lol.
Looks the nuts 😳 but where does this sit with the sonik axs range of bivvies don't understand as this is very similar 🤔

Say hello to my new bivvy
🥰💪💯🎣
Rather one of those over a fox bivvy, never buy fox.
Get what u pay for Nash or fox anytime😆
@@stephenjohnson2802 fox are total shite mate, from my experience.

5000 or 20000 hh won't make any difference to condensation on a single skin. It's a double skin that stops condensation
its a hide! simple as!..nowt different here....
Would never buy a bivvy from Sonik ever again…
Looks awful, plus the rain will run straight off that skull cap right in the door way
