My Bushcraft Kit - In Wisport Raccoon 45 Backpack

[@Zedoutdoors]

A fantastic breakdown and always insightful seeing what others carry. Good to see you approve of the DD superlight tarp as i'm looking to get that as well as a compact 3 season sleeping bag for this time of year. Appreciate you putting this video together and speak soon my man ~Peace~

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks Zed, Sorry it was late for the competition! I really do like the DD superlight, it can be more prone to wind but just tighten it all up and its perfect.

[@SpiritofExtacy]

What a perfect little knife, and a nice set up. Your gear is well thought out and right on the balance between things you can't be without and things which make life better.

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks so much, its still a process of finding what is essential vs clutter when you have the correct skills. Appreciate your comment!

[@MK5446]

Thanks, this was the only review of the Racoon 45 I could find in English. I'm looking for a 45l pack with adjustable back and the option of additional side pockets. This looks good. Nice set up.

[@PrimalNomad]

No problem! I'm hope it helped you out. Thank you 👍

Every time he slaps his bag we drink a shot Great vid tho

[@PrimalNomad]

Haha, love it Rodrigo!

[@deanoboland]

Great work on video mate greetings from spain 👍👍👍

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks Dean! Glad you enjoyed it 🙏

[@isaaclevy7469]

Nice gear distribution, nice configuration, very well explained, thanks för sharing

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks for watching!

[@SpiritofExtacy]

Your manner as you explain things is like a street seller at the market in some Charles Dickens novel with the flat cap and the way you slap things your talking about ''roll up roll up! all the bargains here ladies and gentlemen'' ;-]

[@PrimalNomad]

Haha! This is probably my favourite comment I've had to date. Thanks buddy :P

[@paganoutdoors3193]

Cool kit loadout, well organized, good use of a fishing lead/pva bag, that you use as your possible pouch, good health and safe travels my friend,blessed be,Craig

[@PrimalNomad]

It's a really handy bag and I often find myself thinking what I'd do with out it. Thanks for watching! Stay safe 🙏

[@philipanderson9434]

Great demo.

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks Phillip! 🙌🔥

[@philipanderson9434]

How do feel about the pack today? I am in the market for a mid sized pack and this is in my sights.

[@PrimalNomad]

Very good! Reliable and always one I grab, theres nothing I'd really change either! Just I'd go for the bigger size if I was doing more multi day trips!

[@philipanderson9434]

Thanks .

[@PrimalNomad]

@@philipanderson9434 no problem! I also did a review a few years later to discuss my thoughts on it - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bV6Xq56ke7CAjKM

[@TheNeilAnderson]

Quality video. I'm wondering what side pouch you are using... The big one as the 45l doesn't come with them? Thanks Neil

[@PrimalNomad]

Thank you! They are the wisport 12.5L side pouches, they are available from most retailers that stock wisport :)

[@thomasbryant9002]

"Beyond Clothing" out of Seattle, WA. They use a numbered layer system for all four seasons.

[@PrimalNomad]

Awesome! I'll check them out :)

[@SwampValley]

Great kit and that bag looks amazing. All the best mate 👍 Skye

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks Skye!

[@DravinD81]

Very nice. I understand unforeseen circumstances as well. My brother in law and I were both looking at Wisport packs. Unfortunately Mr. iPres decided to go tariff happy, and a bunch of great gear and tools are no longer in or our price range.

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks Jim! I'm sorry to hear that as they are great packs, hopefully they become available to you soon.

[@deepsouthNZ]

that is one great looking pack, up there with the best of them by the look of it. Cheers

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks! It really is a versatile bag.

[@AEWildwoodsman]

Recently discovered this channel and I really enjoy it. Well thought out kit and choices. Thanks for sharing. Æ

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks so much! I'm glad you find it enjoyable.

[@nothinglessness]

What colour Racoon did you opt for, is it olive green or raal 6003?

[@PrimalNomad]

Olive Green Buddy :)

[@neanderthaloutdoors9202]

For very good lightweight summer trousers that won't break the bank try Craghoppers, brilliant value and made from Solardry, very quick drying, nice pack that Liam, atb, Paul 👍🏻🇬🇧

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks mate! I'll have to get the craghoppers out of the cupboard and give them another go, I found they wicked moisture up quikcly when in rough terrain, but like you say they do dry fast!

[@michalurbanful]

Nice presentation, subscribed! PS: A 45 litre backpack (plus sidepockets) for a one-night trip? I carry a 25 litre backpack for a 5-day trips in warmer-weather (like the one you had). I mean no criticism, truly. Just find that difference funny. 🙂

[@PrimalNomad]

Thata a great kit weight & very suitable for warm weather. This is often overkill, usually I carry extra bits to film with too 😂. I've been reducing the size of some bulkier items for this reason too. Appreciate the comment 🙏🔥

[@sonoftruth9835]

Good review. Is the Reccoon 45 also suitable for taller people, from 1.92m?

[@PrimalNomad]

Sorry for the late reply! I'd say it would be suitable as it has an adjustable back system, if not the 65l may be more suitable.

[@southbucksbushcraft6572]

1 year old this video im still trying to catch up and watch them all but great kit mate has it changed in the last 12 months?

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks mate! A few bits have, I've tried to lighten my load a little, maybe I should do an update video?

[@southbucksbushcraft6572]

@@PrimalNomad yes do an update video bud defo worth a watch on kit..

[@trevpackerphotography]

Great Kit Liam, I do like your bag.

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks! I can highly recommend it. I love the colour too :)

[@Jumlin]

2 years after this video, how do you find the bag? Have you replaced it with a bigger or smaller one?

[@PrimalNomad]

I did another review a few months back if you wantes to check that out for a good aftwr use review on the bag. I find it carries all I need and the pockets definately aid. Maybe a bigger one would be a better for long week trips etc. Although I do find what I can carry in this is ample weight already. Thanks for watching!

[@mykoreandreams7636]

Wow great rucksuck and gears! Big 41st LIKE my friend

[@PrimalNomad]

Thank you! I do like the wisport racoon, it's very versatile :)

[@TexasUrbanHunter]

sweet pack and cool load out, DD tarps are excellent choice with a nice blend into the terrain

[@PrimalNomad]

Thank you! I really like the colours too, although it can be easy to loose camp!

[@carlosdajackel79]

Great video mate. Love the pack I’ve been looking at getting one but not many reviews on KZbin in English. Thanks I’ll have to pick one up 👍🏻

[@PrimalNomad]

I'm glad you enjoyed it, I can't recommend it enough! Thanks for watching.

[@Hoonozit]

Some good gear you have there. Good job on the video.

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks!

[@robertking6488]

Thanks for the vid good presentation keep m coming

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks Robert!

[@X_explorer]

Great clip!

[@PrimalNomad]

Thanks eXplorer!

[@μαλλιαρόςμαλλιαρός]

is this bag comfortable enough to go long distances with heavy load?

[@PrimalNomad]

Yes, I've found its very comfortable.

[@μαλλιαρόςμαλλιαρός]

@@PrimalNomad thank you

[@brittanybradford9239]

A quiet raincoat for when hes out "stalking" ?

[@PrimalNomad]

Hunting etc ;)

[@pandaDotDragon]

3:00 sporks are really useful... when they are in titatium. I broke all the plastic ones right in the middle >

[@PrimalNomad]

I agree, with christmas coming up I may have to treat myself to one.

[@monocogenit1]

Cool vid... Check out alcohol stoves... Much simpler. And you have way too much stuff...lol

[@PrimalNomad]

Thank you! I definitely could reduce it if i was going lighter & would probably use a trangia or something similar. I haven't used one since scouts to be honest!

[@lazyturtlelol768]

Do you use a knife and if so what knife

[@PrimalNomad]

I use the casstrom woodsman. I did a review video a while back on it. :)
