[@feel.the.need.]

[@ChrisJohnson-qm2qu]

Easy choice of vote Paul👍🏻

[@ACE19688]

Done and good luck

[@chunks1965]

Done last week, love the videos full of great content and i have learned loads

[@GameDevAcademy]

I'd love the waistpack. I've voted for you too Paul. Keep being awesome

[@paulkeeley1905]

A lot of youtubers are going ultralight these days. Its nice to see a man who clearly enjoys the luxuries in life and brings a tablecloth. You can't teach class like that!

[@johnpowell9174]

Yes, I’ve damaged my table surface using exactly the same setup!

[@smashy152]

Ultralight is pointless for hiking a few mile into a fell/peak to camp overnight thats basically car camping with a few miles walk you may aswell enjoy all the comforts. Makes sense when you're living on a trail for 4-6 months and trying to get as many miles in as you can a day.

[@INSOLESandLACES]

Roo Waistpack. Big congratulations on getting nominated for TGO. Those packs look fine, can't justify getting one as there's plenty of life in my 20year old Podsac.

[@simontwilley6808]

[@gazdean4781]

Roo waist pack would be a great addition to my ever growing kit list. Thanks for giving me the chance to get my hands on one. Loving the great content you keep putting out on KZbin and good luck for the TGO award you've had my vote.

[@robjvw]

Great to see you guys doing a joint review, more of those please. And have of course submitted a vote for you Paul, wishing you best of luck. Either way you continue to inspire others and provide superb content (as does Andy).

[@donaldduck7268]

I’m gonna get into hiking. I love camping. The solitude in a cosy tent just feels great. Getting to know yourself. I’m excited about the prospect and I want gear that’ll last and be comfortable and useful. I love this review and other reviews of best camping and hiking gear. even if it’s a sponsored item. You talk with experience and knowledge. I appreciate this. Thanks.

[@sari-annehuuhtanen9499]

Great video, thanks Paul!

[@Life-Outdoors-UK]

Great collaboration again. Good luck with the TGO Awards, you deserve the nomination. Roo Waistpack.

[@leighmaskery8066]

Atom waist pack.Another top video and a brilliant review with Andy Beavers

[@giovanivizzotto]

The roo waist pack looks nice. Congratulations for your nomination!!!

[@johne947]

A nice little video Paul, you picked some nice weather mind. But that never puts you off from what I can make out, a true outdoor professional. You and Andy have made some good videos for the same walk and its always good to watch both. The Atom packs look like a good choice. So you and Andy say I need to say Atom packs, Roo waist pack.

[@englishwoodsman]

👍👍👍👍Just sat down great timing

[@jamesdwyer7198]

I'll be looking into the Atom pack now as I've used you're recommendations when I was trying to decide what tent I wanted to buy when it was time to get a "proper" tent. I found your video from a few years ago where you spoke about which tent you would have if you could only have 1. I couldn't justify the £700 for the solo but the Helm 1 was perfect and it's been an incredible investment. Since then I've held your opinion very high with regards to gear as I find you are an incredibly honest bloke with the fans best interest at heart. Thanks for all your hard work. Roo Waist pack

[@philipproctor2663]

Hi Paul it would be a great pleasure for voting for you it's simple you make camping, backpacking a pleasure to watch on your KZbin channel you wouldn't have the number of subscribers if it wasn't for your enthusiasm well done hopefully keep up the good work 😊 👍 😀

[@dancinghiker5779]

You was the 1st wild camper I watched , learnt how to put up 3x3 ddtarp . In the beginning. Loved , helped me with my adventures over the years thank you 😊 have my vote .

[@brucemacdonald8001]

Roo Waist Pack Great video as always and thanks for the review of the Atom pack. I've voted for you in the TGO awards and best of luck

[@thomasmusso1147]

Roo Waist Pack. 👍👍👍 .. a nice share Paul .. thanks. Pricey Pack perhaps .. but in this instance, one appears to be getting what one pays for. Similar to flying Economy, Business or First Class. One still gets there, but .. differently 😊. Heat transfer downwards .. have experienced the same 😯 (and learned from it 😏). Using a pot stand / windscreen that results in a tight enclosure .. 'excess' heat has nowhere to go. Good for whatever is being cooked up topside, but often not so on the 'downside' (pun intended 😊). To protect surfaces, I always use a heat / flame resistant carbon cloth as a base. In cases of heat-sensitive surfaces, I add a Silicone Kitchen Mat, specifically cut to size for that particular application. In some cases, a metal dish (sometimes containing water) has been brought into play. The 'Roo Pack'. Back in the late 70's / 80's, we knew them as 'Butt / Fanny' Packs .. popular at one stage but then fell out of favour, especially when small Urban Packs came to the fore (the fanny pack being seen by some as being a 'sissy' man's handbag 😁). I got mine 'back then' .. a 'Backpacker' brand 'Spectator Pouch' in a L size. After 40-odd years, still in use. The inside water protection lining has largely flaked off so it serves mainly now to carry my 'scoff' for the outing .. the waist strap coming in particularly handy in hanging said pouch off the ground. Good luck Paul, with the nomination. You stand against some doughty opposition .. some of whom, I subscribe to. As with any Democratic Vote, the most 'popular' nominee will win and not necessarily the most 'worthy' .. some consolation for the to be also-rans 😏. Please continue enjoying yourself and sharing it with us .. and yes, treating the Wife after your suffering is a just reward 😊. Take care .. Tommy

[@scottgephart9749]

Roo waistpack... I really enjoy watching your videos from over here in the states. The weather in many of your videos is quite extreme compared to my camping trips, which makes them all the more interesting. Thanks for sharing!

[@garethturner]

Roo waistpack. Great to see you and Andrew out on one again! 😊

[@Wheres_wanda_wandering]

Roo waistpack looks great for keeping bits and bobs. Take care Gill

[@johnthorstensson6617]

Nice review if the pack. The Atom Packs has been on my radar for a while. Started to use a bum bag a couple of years ago when hiking since my pack do not have any pockets on the waist strap. The Roo waistpack looks great with a lot of space for snacks and camera gear.

[@CraigHand1]

Well deserved nomination Paul, you have my vote

[@gylesmaclean6647]

RooWaistPack: Great pack, Paul, mrs has one and I’m getting Tom to make one in the new year. Big on the shoulders, he’s willing to make a wider version for me. Voted as well, certainly deserved! Keep being you, and keep well.

[@philipgeorge2989]

Great campsite with iconic views out towards the Hope Valley. Paul you get my vote every time. Love a chance of owning a Roo Waistpack and if I had the money the Backpack too.

[@chrisstockdale1189]

Too Waistpack looks great, and great field trip with the Helm tent. Thanks

[@herecomesthemonster]

Roo waistpack looks very handy. love the jazzy colours.

[@larrysheedy4293]

Feeling pretty good when I picked up the fold out table before seeing you with the same. “Almost” now I feel like I’m getting up to speed w my gear. Take care. Luv your videos n your ways of presentation.

[@jodiejones4573]

Another great video Paul, pleasure to watch. Interested in the Roo waistpack, I currently use either my OMM o pouch or the Osprey Acheon chest pod.

[@fraserevans3237]

Roo waist pack. Thanks for that insite and review I'll be saving for a new pack as my osprey after 2 years is suffering holding up but I love the bottle feature I've always thought that would be an amazing option. Now seeing these I know what I'm upgrading to.

[@ChrisSaidIt]

Thanks for the vid Paul. Love those Atom packs and the Roo waist pack looks smart!

[@flexray7684]

I been following you for a long time now. What I really like about you is sharing information. Not like other outdoor youtuber always using the word “My secret location “ which I really hate. You inspired me and I already voted you. Good luck!

[@michaelharrison9445]

Another great video. Nice to see the Helm 1 out and good review of the Atom pack. Roo waist pack👍

[@ShazBookOwl]

[@johnburton8457]

Always good to see you out with Andy. It's a great joint review and would love the ROO waistpack to go with the Atom pack that's coming soon. Sshh. Don't tell the wife 😉

[@rotaaable]

Thank you for another great video and the review of this great pack. I'd love a Roo waistpack, which, added to my Atom, would be enough to room the gear to stay overnight.

[@lucasmdonald7486]

I have a 60lt Mo and love it , best packs ever . ROO WAIST PACK

[@jamesdoolan8040]

Roo Waistpack looks brilliant. I've been using a Vango something or other for a couple of years now, and could definitely do with an upgrade! Thank you for making these great videos :) Roo waistpack

[@DaveMadeOne]

Roo waist pack, Great video. You have given me some great ideas over the past few years on wild camping. I alway look forward to your next video. I don’t think I will try the plastic cooking table. Good luck in the competition.

[@jamesdack2003]

Roo waist packs look great, love to have one... Great vid Paul

[@andrewmoore1136]

well deserved nomination, Paul! your channel and videos are a breath of fresh air (pun intended!), you show that "normal" folk can get out there and have genuine adventures whilst also being honest in that things don't always go to a perfect plan up in the hills! you get my vote, sir.

[@TheAndyC]

So good to see you out and about more. Roo waistpack

[@gavineivers]

Roo Waistpack - I saw your video with the Atom Pack a couple of months ago and managed to save up for it. Just tested it out on a 2 day, 50 mile hike and it was awesome, quite pricey but as you say, it's so comfy and versatile, it can replace a couple of packs so worth it I reckon. Congratulations on the TGO nomination, I'll vote now

[@jesslavender3985]

Roo waist pack. Thanks for another great video Paul!

[@ftb2772]

My Atompack is one of the best things I’ve ever purchased for my wildcamping trips. It’s mint.

[@alnerinranfam]

Roo waistpack. Love the videos. Only would be better with Jo. Great information. Great that you tell us the hood and the needs improvement for gear.

[@keithchapman2040]

Roo waistpack. Would love an atom pack the look really solid, bit not out enough to warrant buying one. Congrats being nominated for the reward.
