Love your channel...thank you for not being the obnoxious TH-camr with over exaggerated reactions!!!!
Yeeeeooowwwww
I actually prefer this guy over 99.99% of North American channels...
@@BraydensOutdoorsobviously. That's what he was saying
😅😅
Obnoxious is far from Rod's repertoire!
I'm a teen that has got much to stress about in academics and other things, I consider myself a loner since I don't have friends that you could count a finger on, and the one's that counts doesn't really feel like "friendship". after schoolworks and things, I chose to watch camping videos, I've done this since last year and I've stumbled across your channel. your solo camping videos and other contents really puts me at ease. I couldn't really relate since I can't do what you do for now and just hoping. but I find myself being in the same journey you go, especially with the povs and when you're having a conversation with us. You may not no this but your content helped me greatly. Thank you for that and keep going on the journey as your viewers and I will be with you in the other end. Love from the Philippines 🇵🇭
It gets better, most people go through that difficult period.. all will turn out ok.
Always a great day when Rod uploads! Your genuine and positive attitude always puts me in a good mood 🤙
The fact you can’t afford “ the big cool shit” is the reason I still watch your channel bro! You don’t need the fanciest shit to get out there! You make it work and I love it!!! Let us know if you want to do another wathumba/Rooney’s trip as I would love to see you up there again!
Get the awning, brother, batwing is best. Save up for it, even, you and the Fam won't regret that purchase. Your tent was missing the rear guy line to attach point to pull that back area up/back, requiring more cordage and possibly pegs.
Great channel Rod.
Tie more guy lines to the reinforced loops, especially around the back, in this set-up.
You’ll be a lot happier with the extra useable space.
Telescopic hiking poles will work a treat and be kinder on the tarp.
Plus being adjustable, they’ll be great on any shaped ground and most tarp set-ups.
Stay safe mate
Great advice!
That car is a finisher car! A transporter of gods!
RoKKIT KIT & Andy’s fishing, the two most entertaining and down to earth TH-camrs!!!!
Loving the new truck!!! Make a lot of new great memories...and please...take us along XOXOX
Could you put a guide rope on the back to hold it out from the wind? Thank you for these video's, we live in the UK, been watching you for ages ( we remember the hoochie video) and this gives us a bit of Australia because I know we will never get to visit, even though my cousin has lived in Adelaide about 25 years. Love your attitude and how good you are with the camera. Much appreciated.
Oh I forgot to tell you, the rain you were having, welcome to Britain, it is like that over here a lot.
Love the Mike and Sully drop in.
My favorite TH-cam channel, thanks for keeping it real and being you Rod!
It helps to put the pole slightly further back to lift the back end off the ground a bit more and open up more room. You can also just hook the side guy lines on to the pegs you're already using at the back of the tent. It's a great little setup
A small piece of shock cord to the next eyelet back should work as well
Love your honesty on the discovery, hopefully it’s a good one
Great to hear you're coming to SA, Rokkit. Stoked, hope you have a blast!
She’s a beauty Rok! I appreciate your justifications for why you got a new truck but in the end its there to benefit you man! Long as your happy it makes us happy :)
Anyway love the content as always and stay healthy!
You'll enjoy the South African trip. Great fishing. As a South African living on the Gold Coast It's really interesting to recognise the spots you boat and fish here. It was also fascinating when you sailed Misty as I know the boat as I keep my boat at the same marina. The weather certainly has been poor here over the last few weeks but improved yesterday.
Wow, that Mozambique trip could be EPIC!
This new truck is perfect for you. Congratulations Rod!!!
Nice! Congrats Rod!
Sweet new ride! Congrats on the upgrade. Looking forward to the next camping video!
Congratulations on your new truck!!!!
New vid up from Rokkit, awesome start to the weekend! 💯🔥👍🏼
I do love your videos. Very relaxing to watch.
Mike and Sully along for the ride 👏
Good to see you back brother hope the family are doing well love the new wheels love how you using wife’s car for parts🤣🤣❤️
Living the life. Love ya work mate.
I was super excited to wake up and see a new upload by one of my favorite TH-camrs!!
Nice wheels! Congrats mate.... A great choice for your future adventures✌️🍻
To use two less pegs, try to tie the “door lateral flaps” without two new pegs, but with the pegs already in the sand, the ones immediately behind the door pegs. Maybe it works haha
Can’t wait to see your vids from SA! Cheers mate
Stoked! Greetings from South Africa
Have made hundreds of hooches in my life and I enjoyed your video! As always great video Rod!
Brilliant, Rod
Cheers for the shoutout, Rod 😄
Haha you have no idea how many times I’ve snapped that support stick too short 😂 You did a great job with it though. Once you’ve done it once or twice it’s a piece of cake and perfect for sand. I take 8 of those same pegs. Slept in that setup last night in the rain. Really good shelter.
Great video dude!
Also, love the new car 💯
Oh and I also run another line from one of points down the back over a forked stick and peg it down. Opens up the tent a lot and takes 2 seconds. Definitely worth it.
Best vids ever love the new car n your grind nothin stops you no matter the situation a man knows how to conquer all road blocks n love the mustache 🤙🏼👌🏻
I love this channel because your down to earth and diy stuff not just pay big money and get someone else to do it
Thanks for letting us hangout with you Rod!!!!
Some excellent upgrades, my friend! I am very excited about your upcoming adventure!
Good Choice of Vehicle...Land Rover..very good for what you do indeed, Enjoy the new car and Thank you for the Video again.
Always enjoy the channel and trips to the remote islands - great to see an abundance of exotic fish. Keep up the good work.
Hello from Toronto Canada. I love your videos. You have a great lifestyle. Talented fisherman. Cheers mate 🍻
Awesomeness dude! Congrats on the new cabbie! You deserve it and will use it to the max🤟🏻
I’m South African (living in Denmark now) so happy to hear that you’ll be visiting there
beach camping and shore camping is still the best
Can't wait to watch later. Hope you are well, m8! Always stoked to see one of your videos! From WA state!
Great channel, Content & adventures
Great video once again, looking forward to the next!
I’ve built a few tarp setups on the beach. I use pieces of found sticks about a foot long buried in the sand turned side ways about a foot deep. Just have your string or rope tied to the stick. Holds super well.
Great tip with the sticks buried sideways!
❤ landrover discoveries just great vehicles all round so awesome to drive to 😊
its alright rok, u deal with life first and post videos if you can, dont stress urself out, i love every vid u post and idgaf how long it takes, i go rewatch all ur vids anyways since i’ve watched them all 😂❤❤❤❤ i love uu, and thank u for even uploading at all ❤
Congratulations on your new vehicle!
Sweet ride rokkit
What a beautiful rig mate!!! Flash truck nice work mate! Was wondering were you got to 😂 always nice to here the updates👌 Hope the family is well. Talk soon when u post another live stream🤙
Man I love the rain sounds in the beginning
plenty of rain here recently😅
Nice Discovery Rod! ...and that's an awesome Tarp setup. I'm looking into getting one for beach visits in the future! All the best!
Love the Disco, hope he gives you plenty of great miles touring, SA trip sounds amazing and can't wait to see that. The tarp also looks very practical, you should put another guide rope on the back section to pull it out when facing the wind. Great job!
Looking forward to the next video
Fridays with my pal Rokkit is always better! Love from Brasil mate!
The other option would be running paracord from the centrepoint of the roof on the outside up to a branch above you, that way you dont need the stick in middle of the tent. Awesome vid as always mate
One word. NICE!
I love your show!!!!
Sick disco mate. Highly under rated. Sing out of your ever stuck with it and I can point you in all the right directions.
Cheers mate, yea I agree about he highly underrated. Hopefully this one has been taken care of as well as it appears so far and we are on top of a few of the bigger things that come up🤞
I hope that the S. Africa trip comes through for you- Good Luck.
Conspicuous dearth of boat content and spear fishing. Great car though. and nice tent. Love always, from the Michigan.
Congrats on the new rover!
I use a collapsible tent pole with a squash ball on the top. The ball stops holes forming and also grips on the tarp, packs easily and is light weight
One thing you can do with the back that's cupping the wind is getting a peice of cord tie it to one of the tieouts in the back wrap it around a long stick then to a peg in the sand and prop the stick in the sand at an angle against the wind and tighten the rope and it should hold itself and give alot of extra room in the back. Looking forward to the next vids
Heading home to watch on the tele. I can't wait!
Thank you for the Subliminal Wazowski, was not what I was expecting when I saw something flash up :)
Little flash of monsters Inc there when you started your truck
Nice ride Rod!
Love ur videos mate
Looks like a nice setup for some island camps! Best of luck on the Africa adventure, should be epic!!
The mustache is looking wicked!
Wishing you many safe km's in the new 4x4 Rod.
Look forward to seeing how the tarp tent works out in practice. Gut feel tells me that dome tent (with silicone spray for the zips) PLUS tarp for vestibule/utility area would be best. Best of all worlds.
This is a good video. Nice.
Gee, come along way since our pup tents of the 70s 😊😊
New to your channel ! Love it ! Cheers from Texas 😎👍
I almost wonder if you could get some bug netting and put it under the pole when you set up the tent, and then have a couple points to hook it around the bottom of the tarp and perhaps some material at the bottom to pack sand around it inside to keep it down and protected from the wind? You could maybe put a zipper around the front for the door. No idea if this would work, just a thought after thinking of standard bug nets hanging from the ceiling in a room. Love your content Rod!
smart idea to test out your stuff locally
Great video rod (Wilbur)
I'm keen!
You got me looking now at the discovery for the wife.. she currently has a vw Tiguan. Land Rover needs to contract with you for this ad 😂
Landi 3 Owner over here! The best car ever! No other car in its price class compares to this. If you want a dash-cover for the cracks I have great custom made ones. Sydney based📍
Sweet, can't wait to watch :)
Stubby cooler works great as a sock on your pole to protect the tarp.
Tarp camping is the best. I only bring a tent when the kids come along 🎉
Alright Rod, I meant to say on that recent vid when the zips on your newer tent failed that you can get replacements. I've had the same issue on bags, tents etc, but you can get these nifty zip pullers that are sort of hinged and clamp into the zipper. After you've snapped off the old seized pullers the new ones are really easy to fit. Seemed a shame otherwise as it doesn't seem long ago when you debuted that newer tent on that island trip. I reckon there's some life in that green tent yet. All the best mate!
34 minutes of work day left, 34 minutes of Rokkit Kit..
I am a big fan of simplicity for reliability vs fancy.
Damn you made Mike and Sully hard to catch in a freeze frame hahah
Like your do it yourself attitude, I do the same thing. I think your tarp setup will work great for you. Look into some of the bug net setups for tipi tents. They can be suspended from the center pole and give you half or full coverage. Might get some ideas to sew up your own to fit inside your specific tarp configuration. Good luck.
nice ride
Great video mate, you can use a strap or guide line at the back to pull the tent out
Great video. I love my Alton tarp ;)
Awesome mate, I love vids like this because I have been around since about 4k subscribers and its been awesome seeing how things change over the years. I have a soft spot for the disco 3 and 4 but Im not sure I would ever want to own one again! I had issues with air suspension on one and it was eye-wateringly expensive!! I have been super happy with the Ford Everest I have now, but they are quite expensive.
Haha, yea I hear ya Rod, I actually just changed over the front air struts on the wife’s disco last month😅 but all in all it’s been a fairly good car. 🤞
Nice flexible set up. ❤
Thanks
good luck with the new car
Sweet wheels bother!
Love the simple tarp tent setup!! You can also silicon spray that tarp so its water proof too. Congratulations on your new truck!! Much love from the coast of Maine USA 🇺🇸🤙🤙
The Alton Goods tarp is waterproof. It’s very popular with hikers. Great Australian company.
