Nemo Hornet Osmo VS Nemo Dagger Osmo. Changes with Nemo tents. Nemo Equipment. what tent should I buy for backpacking. Camping. hiking.

[@eric_hanson]

Why’d you get so awkward on that high five Dan? Also, wanna trade tents?

[@dadainthip]

What up, Carter?

[@debbilermond1553]

Thanks Dan and Eric for the in depth comparison from the 2 OSMO tents from NEMO. Great choice for both tents. I actually bought the NEMO OSMO Dagger 3P tent because my husband is 6'4" and I'm 5'8.5" with 2 NEMO Tensor Insulated Wide Pads (25"). We have plenty of room for both of us and our gear. I can also use my extra Gear Loft from my NEMO Dragonfly 2P tent on the other side which gives us both our own gear lofts. Sweet! We love the NEMO products for backpacking in comfort. 😁

[@nicholaswozniak]

Nice work Carter!!!! Great video guys! Thanks for the translations Emmitt. 😂 Glad you got your own channel Eric! Long time fan.

[@raultejeda7611]

What up Carter! Great video guys. I’m trying to get my 11 year old daughter outdoors more so maybe Carter can talk a little in front of the camera in the future to share his experiences now that he’s been doing it for a while with dad. Let’s get these younger generations out more. Thanks again, all of you, for the great content.

[@natew3802]

Finally a review on the Dagger and it did not disappoint! I’ve been waiting to see what your thoughts were on the tent I’ve been rocking for 2 years. Great work Dan, Eric, Emmit, and Carter. I’ve been using the dagger 3 person for two years now and I love it. 4 lbs May seem like a lot for a backpacking tent but when you’re 6’-2” it’s awesome. It fits my two young kids and I perfectly! Also What Up Carter!!!

[@alsnyder1660]

Welcome, Carter!. And Dan, shame on you for scaring me telling me Emit was gone. I was bummed until you said he was still here. Always fun to see all you guys.

[@MrKuken911]

Great comparison video! My main complain about the Hornet is that it's technically a single wall tent on the head side. If it rains, that really becomes problematic. The fly is just wet and whatever touches it becomes wet too. Has this been an issue for you too so far? Oh, and what up Carter!

[@KevinHernandez-eh2zt]

I just recently got my Nemo Hornet Osmo 1p tent. I can't wait to try it out soon. The two person tent looks incredible in this video. Nemo does such great gear.

[@sk-wx1cf]

I recently tried out the Hornet Osmo 1p. It was...ok. With that very short brow pole (it's not even a pole, more like a wing attachment) it really pinches together at the top. I didn't like that the zipper is only one way, i.e., only one zipper pull, and it feels pretty flimsy, but maybe it's tougher than it feels. It does fit a 25" wide pad with some room left for gear. It rained for 1/2 day and there were no leaks though it sagged a little. On the same trip a friend had a BA Tigerwall 1P and that tent definitely has more headroom. You can compare them side by side on REI.

[@stevecoad1]

I have carried my Nemo Hornet 2 on many trips and love it, "glorified 1 person tent" is a great description. I love it for the light weight, roominess (for one person), generous vestibules and door sizes. My favorite tent for backpacking, if I am not using a tarp this is my tent.

[@VistaVerse]

Literally just bought a Dagger Osmo 2P couple weeks ago. I haven't been able to sleep in it yet but am going to find out next week. However, I have set it up a couple of times tho and must say that I am very impressed. The amount of room is awesome, def enough for two people to fit comfortably. I do wanna share some critique tho. The landing zone is very gimmicky to me, I don't really see myself using it at all and seems to me like another little hassle to attach to a tent that already takes a little more time setting up. In regards to setting up the tent in the rain, it is def possible if only quite more cumbersome. You can def pitch it with the rain fly first and the inner second but it does take more effort and time to do so. Apart from these criticisms I think it's an awesome tent, can't wait to use it and looking forward to see how well it will hold up in the coming years.

[@shawnbrennan7526]

How would you set up the fly first?

[@cdark6869]

Sup Carter! Thank your Dad and Eric for getting me back into backpacking!

[@yvonnesmith8245]

Welcome Carter! We love your dad! Great comparison between the two Nemo tents: I want one of each!!☺️

[@JarradShaw]

I was either going to buy the BA Copper Spur 3p, Sea to Summit Alto 3p, or Nemo Dagger OSMO 3p. Erik and you have shown the first two but… Because of Devin and his videos about the Nemo tents earlier I think last year and this year (and price for what you get) I went with the Nemo Dagger OSMO 3p. I hike with my wife a 25 lb corgi pup. The true rectangular floor, premium stakes, added outer vestibule caddy, and ease to split it between two backpackers was such a win for me.

[@Olyphoto7]

Way to go Carter. If a tent doesn’t have a full coverage rainfly, it will fail in the PNW most of the year ☔️☔️☔️☔️☔️☔️☔️☔️☔️

[@Lv4_o2]

Dagger OSMO 2p…luv mine…switched out stakes to MSR groundhog. When solo, I use the “shoe tray” on inside…no worries about critters in shoes. My sister and I slept comfortably…and b/c we both be on the shorter side, our packs fit in at our feet. One trip, fly was wet…next site/stop, hung it and it was dry in 5 minutes, there was a breeze.

[@GoodMorningHikers]

love my Hornet Osmo. best tent i've ever bought. it absolutely IS a 1p tent. but it's the best one on the market by a country mile. some people say "the roof leaks" it does... if you set up the tent wrong. so ignore those reviews. those people just didn't follow directions when pulling the tent taught. additionally without the rainfly it almost feels like a bug-free cowboy camp. the stargazing while falling asleep is what REALLY made me fall in love with it. (aside from the 2.1 lb weight groundhog stakes and poles included). 500ish dollars is really a steal for this beast. its probably the best non-winter tent you'll ever own.

[@renegadearms]

Nemo makes such good gear in my opinion.

[@tomswagger9140]

Yo, Carter absolutely SNIPPING those shots!

[@jeromebullard6123]

Suuuuup, Carter!!! I almost bought a hubba hubba before I saw that Nemo dagger. Sold!

[@scoop511b]

What up Carter? My girlfriend and I have used the Dagger 2P for the past year, both backpacking and in campgrounds and we love it! It has enough space for the both of us to fit perfectly. It would be a little tight to use just in a campground if you have no intention of backpacking, but if you want a tent that would be good for both backpacking and campgrounds, this is it! When we use it backpacking, we split up the tent and the poles between us to even out the weight.

[@markshea7151]

Hello Dan. I just bought my 2nd NEMO Dagger 3P. I section hiked the AT during covid. I brought the 3P with me as I'm 6'2 and weigh 205. I felt it was too heavy to pack. So I traded at REI for a Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL2 at just 2 lbs to cut my weight by 3 lbs. I am disappointed in the Big Agnes. So I now just bought the NEMO OSMO Dagger 3P. It was such an awesome tent before that I'm willing to pack the weight. The shape of the tent is awesome. Good room. The ultra-lighters on trail gave me grief about my luxury hotel but so be it. lol.

[@Colby168]

I have the dagger 2p osmo and love it! The Osmo is amazing and I’m reluctant to get a tent in the future that isn’t a poly sil whatever it is fly. Water beads off like water on plastic. There are some more pros that weren’t talked about. It also has some vents with little vent poles on each vestibule. You can also completely roll up each vestibule and attach them to the guy out loops. Just figured that out last weekend. For those nights you’re unsure if it’s going to rain but you want maximum air flow.

[@mortonmedia]

My dagger 2p aka the green machine has never failed me! Love that thing

[@JClishe]

I have the previous version of the Dagger 2P and I absolutely love it. I’m 6’4” so my sleeping pad is large wide. The Dagger has plenty of space not only for the pad, but also I love being able to sit upright in it with plenty of headroom. And the large vestibules are awesome. If it’s raining I’ll just setup my entire cook kit in the vestibule with the outer door closed and the inner tent door open. I mostly backpack solo and have never been concerned about the extra weight of the Dagger compared to the Hornet.

[@nymuelovan]

Do you have to place your pad diagonally?

[@JClishe]

@@nymuelovan Nope, it fits just fine.

[@nymuelovan]

@@JClishe Great. Thank you for the quick response.

[@DerRentner818]

how do you set up the tent in heavy rain?

[@hellomjb]

What up Carter!?! Welcome to the trail!

[@danbarth9421]

What up Carter!!! Hey, I also watched Eric's video the other day on that tent as well!! I have the Osmo Dagger 2 person and love it!! The waterproofing on the fly works great!! We recently went out and stayed through a complete down pour all night, and I stayed completely dry!!! That "landing zone" I thought was kinda cheesy at first, but I have used it every time for muddy boots, pack, extra gear etc...complete game changer. I am a 10 mile or so per day kinda guy, and this works out amazing for me!! I would TOTALLY recommend the Nemo Dagger Osmo for anyone lookin for a quality tent, and don't forget the most important thing, it's pricy, but it has a lifetime warranty!!! Way to go Nemo!! Thanks guys!! Great content!!

[@greenfield245]

how did the cutout of the fly in the back work for you? seems like an easy way of windy and rain to become a problem.

[@danbarth9421]

@greenfield245 as of now, I have never really had an issue with rain or wind coming through that cutout, and I've been through several good windy downpours in that sucker👌👌

[@debraervin5773]

What up, Carter? Welcome!❤

[@flybyguy1450]

I got the hornet this year. The trick to setting it up is to stake out the foot end with the guy lines going almost straight out to the sides. You have yours staked out way in front.

[@livinlarge1247]

Just started this video: hopefully it discusses how well the Hornet works minus vents...for all I know Grrreat! I know it makes a good bug catcher. The bees cannot get out. Love the short poles. Maybe the Mayfly is the new evolution. I'd take the short poles in the Mayfly though.

[@mrmods7912]

Dagger osmo 2 is my favourite tent of all time!! Can't be beaten

[@gcvrsa]

What up, Carter? Welcome to the world of video production, I hope you have a blast!

[@FatherFiguresOutdoors]

Whats up CARTER! Time for you to do a gear review while Dad has to be your helper! Dan, have you ever done a kayak camping trip? I would love to see you get attempt a couple day paddle and see how you like it!

[@memathews]

What up, Carter? Glad you brought your dad and friends to Oregon, hope you enjoyed backpacking here. Nice tents. Expensive tents! But the Dagger looks like it's got great room and the weight is manageable if it's s 4-season tent. If the Dagger is not a 4-season, then the Hornet and a nice tarp are a better combo for achieving a 4-season shelter while backpacking (meaning room to stay dry under constant rain with space for quick cooking in the dark). For the price of a Dagger one can buy 10 cheap tents with just as much space and maybe a pound difference in weight, and not a care on disability when you take it car camping.

[@Ali_ReBORN]

Hey Carter, enjoy outdoors with your dad! My oldest son is the same age as you! Have fun backpacking 🙂

[@MoreAThanI]

I was in the market for a tent to bring on Bikepacking and Trailhiking. So it had to be somewhat freestanding, because i dont carry trekkingpoles while cycling. And it needed a small pack-size, to fit my Backpack and fit on the Bike. Besides the weight, the Hornet fits in a regular Backpack horizontally - and can also mount on the handlebars of your race/gravel-bike, all in. No need to carry the poles separately. And i actually rigged the footbox with a Trekkingpole once, while camping on a platform on trail - worked out really well. One thing that surprised me, in regards to packsize is that the Hornet is also quite the flat package, the volume packed is really small.

[@alexanderwoodward4016]

WhadUp Carter! Thanks for the vid team. I agree, think I'd go for the Dagger for a more plush multi person outing, and something like the X-Mid / X-Mid Pro for the solo and lighter weight ventures.

[@shawnbrennan7526]

I’ve got their hornet from 2019. Love the tent, but Dan is correct that it is really a big 1P instead of a realistic 2P. I’m super disorganized with my gear, so I like not having my stuff in the vestibule.

[@zacharybonner4792]

What up Carter?!!!! Love checking out the new gear you review!! Putting together some gear not for backpacking but for canoe/kayak camping with my boys!! Thanks for all the indepth reviews!

[@MichaelAndersen_DK]

What up, Carter. Nice to see you out in the wild with the very, very old dudes.

[@remyllebeau77]

Hello Carter, nice of you to help the old man out. Haha

[@ice2dance]

“Welcome back Carter”, TV sitcom reference. Ask your dad. 🤣

[@neilharris2896]

I saw someone with the Dagger on the Tour du Mont Blanc recently and it really stood out. Amazing tent! *Also; the reduction in awkward high 5s is directly proportional to how focused your eyes are on the other person's elbow ;)

[@njg5942]

Gotta luv these dorks!

[@m_soko]

1:30 Carter definitely looks like Kyle's(Kyle Hates Hiking) younger brother😂. Seriously though great comparison video especially being a 2 time Hornet 2P owner!

[@Tightburner1]

What up,carter Greetings from Germany …. Awesome job buddy !

[@getriteb4ugetlft]

What’s up, Carter! And Emmett! And Dan and everyone!

[@andrewhunter6536]

I have the in-between of these, the dragonfly (old none osmo), but as a 3 person. It is fully free standing but still lightweight. Pretty awesome for two people

[@nuthatch127]

Seriously, before Eric popped onto the screen I legit said, "is he pooping?" 😂😂😂

[@habituallinestepper8839]

I like the Nemo Dagger. I have Nemo car camping and scree house and both work great for me. I love the space

[@summittaedae2323]

What up Carter 😂👍🏼. Your dads a diamond in the backpacking community even over here in Scotland

[@Staypuff777]

Its like a camping super group! You guys should make a buddy cop movie. 😅

[@PatPeters-uo7nx]

Hey Carter, this is grandma. Great job!!

[@dfleiva]

If the rain fly doors are opened to the vestibule spaces for each, will water drip inside the tent floor? It seems like the dagger is protected by overhang, but the hornet is not.

[@michaeldriggers7681]

When you said you got rid of Emmett, I was about to be pretty ticked off. Oh and hey Carter.

[@boredandagitated]

This edits with the translations and stuff are funny. Nice vid y’all

[@TheFleetcaptain210]

Run Carter!!! Run away as fast as you can...save yourself!!!🤣 Just kidding! Welcome aboard.

[@valdius85]

Awesome one person tents. One day I wish to have one of them. The Dagger looks so luxiourios with all of the space.

[@asuraphreak]

Carter, you know the assignment. Good luck.

[@wolfheartspirit97]

What up! Carter 😎 hope you had a blast

[@jorisev]

Carter, yeah dude! I considered the Dagger, but went for a Big Agnes Copper Spur instead because it's lighter and because there was a big discount (making it about 150 euros cheaper than the Dagger).

[@mac1guy11]

"Who doesn't...." Hahahaha . What's up Carter great job I couldn't tell if it was you or Emmit.?

[@mhe8545]

Love my Nemo hornet. I use it for bike packing. Perfect for me and my dog. I thought the Dagger was a 4 season tent.

[@DarrenHolman]

What up Carter! Your dad is awesome, and you also seem awesome!

[@medicus5565]

For the Nemo Dagger Osmo (Eric's tent), the plastic connector that joins the brow pole with the central pole, does that detach or pivot? I'm asking because I have a Marmot Tungsten UL with a similar connector that broke recently and Marmot will not repair or replace it. It seems like a weak point in the pole construction. Thanks.

[@vitoliste]

[@bradl2636]

$64,000 question and sorry if I missed it but for 1P use, 1-3 nights of low-to-moderate mileage, would you grab the Dagger 2P or the Hornet 2P assuming best coverage for unexpected weather with wind up to say 30mph and maybe up to and inch or two of rain?

[@JarradShaw]

The edit… lol. So good. So funny

[@dougieranger]

Greetings from Scotland. Great job Carter. Outstanding. 👍🏼

[@jannamozdzer4100]

What up, carter! Nice job!

[@jay_deezy4179]

WHAT'S UP CARTER! 🤟

[@mewli7402]

Love my Hornet OSMO 1P. Btw, the OSMO version is actually a little bit large and heavier than the old nylon version, and it's poles packed up very short, you can put them in your pack horizontally.

[@TheAdventuresofEli]

What up Carter!! Future Camera gear right there! Great video guys!

[@redwhiteblue7831]

👍 Carter... I have the Hornet OSMO version... I'm a little over 6'-2" noticed that I touch at both ends. Only used it once on a 2 nighter so far.

[@FlyinHawaiian5115]

What up Carter!

[@nixternal]

Great work Carter! I like that "landing zone". I have looked at these tents and they are nice, but I still don't understand, as someone who bike packs/tours, why would I go for this over a Durston X-Mid? Right now, my new tent will be the X-Mid 1P unless someone could change my mind on why I needed something different. Probably wouldn't be difficult to create my own "landing zone" but I do like that feature for my panniers & what not. Cheers!

[@borobdin]

Durston X-Mid will probably be my next tent too. But some people want a freestanding (or semi-freestanding) tent. So, that'd probably be why someone would get this over an X-Mid.

[@imahuman1996]

MSR freelite is similar to the hornet but more spacious, that's what I'd go for.

[@jimc5696]

Seems like the Nemo Hornet would make a great 'bikepacking' tent. I know Nemo sells a bikepacking pent - but other than being more expensive than the Hornet - I'm not sure how it is better for that purpose?

[@alindberg8001]

The old hornet compared to the bikepacking hornet had longer piles when you gold them up. So the bikepacking version had more breaks in the poles so they would be 30cm to be able to fit between the levers on a drop bar bike. And some other smart details. Not sure if this new osmo also has that.

[@DoYerBest]

Welcome aboard, Carter. Cameraman at 11 years old. What a great experience, have fun!
