Great honest review! Just purchased my Titan Hide XL and this video helped me so much. Thank you guys!! Now i won't have my Mr's moaning about the size anymore.....well at least not the size of our biv ;)

Probably the best bivvy review I have seen on KZbin. The setup part was fantastic, lots of detail. Good work.

Thanks mate! Appreciate the kind words! We felt we wanted to add in all the small bits which sometimes get missed from other videos.

Once you zip in front panel you can leave it attached all the time, when you use over wrap in winter you gain a lot more room in the front as well. I had 2 poles snap on first one in windy weather but had it replaced and new one 100% perfect.

Cheers Lee. Should be getting the infill panel at some point. Not sure if I'll need the wrap though.

Great informative review, my XL arrived today. And what a well made piece of kit it is too! Took 5 mins to put up - then 10 mins to get the front ribs in the sockets.. it does seem very tight at the minute and very scary like you said in the review.. I’m thinking of cutting the front ribs down 5mm to make them fit in easier and put less strain on the bivvy overall but ill see how it goes as Nashy usually knows what he’s doing & maybe it’ll loosen up after a few outings
@samandtomgofishing5 жыл бұрын
Cheers mate. I wouldnt worry about cutting down the front poles. After a few uses and being setup for longer periods, it goes up much easier now. Thanks for the kind words!

Just got one each for me and my partner, waited for a drop in price at £219 given all the extras you need.....as with most things you get what you pay for, hope its not like the high top bivvy, put that up in the sun, 24hrs later it was so tight with pole expansion they would not separate even with two anglers giving it some (next guy in the swim)

I would always buy the door at the same time to save it being a different colour from the shelter. The sun will draw the colour from the shelter and a brand new door will be fresh green. Great review tho mate 👍🏼 gonna get the XL myseld 🎣🎣🎣

Good point! I managed to get myself a door now so that's something I don't need to worry about! Let me know what you think of it when you get one!

@samandtomgofishing3 жыл бұрын
I reckon you could get two standard bedchairs side by side (going from side to side). In my opinion front to back probably wouldn't work unfortunately. The way it's designed is that it has a flat back to maximise the room inside.

Did u notice when u first opened it up the center rear leg was floating off the floor? Wondering if a peg will hold it down on wet ground
@joeflay73614 жыл бұрын
Used one for about a year on wet ground it does pull out very easy! In my opinion only downfall of the hide it’s great other than that
@samandtomgofishing4 жыл бұрын
I haven't had a issue with that yet. After a trip to France recently the ground was really hard so I put two pegs in to get it as far down as possible. But I can see what you mean with the really wet ground, the good thing is these pegs are the screw type too
@Galamesh1234 жыл бұрын
Yeh I have used mine 1nce and the threaded peg is good on hard ground but pulls out on wet ground! Overall it’s a decent hide other than that
@garyguest18853 жыл бұрын
Had mine over a year & my back peg is the same - fine in dry conditions but the peg pulls out in wet ground. Great bivvy apart from that tho 👍🏻
@iana78084 жыл бұрын
Could you squeeze in 2 standard bedchairs in this, looks quite large inside? Just curious.
@samandtomgofishing4 жыл бұрын
You could probably get two in without a door. But would definitely be a squeeze!

Good demo & review, however, looking at a couple of comments ref: high wind broken poles & ripped material on deployment. It is a little worrying after handing over your hard earned cash. I am thinking of purchasing the XL though as the design concept is so hassle free, especially if you need to move around a lake or river roving. Thanks for the heads up on potential problems to look out for. All the best. Locky

It's much bigger than a lot of bivvys, especially the height in my opinion!

Hi thanks for the video, have you compared it to a trakker tempest 100T at all? The material on the XL does look thicker and darker internally. As a tall angler I wonder which is better.

Hi mate, it's not a two man bivvy. You could potentially fit two bedchairs in right next to each other but wouldn't have much other room.
