SNUGPAK Scorpion 2 | First Impressions

[@dancancade7101]

I've had one for about two years now and have used it in all sorts of conditions in the Pacific Northwest. I've tested it in high winds, heavy rains, and in winter conditions. It's well made and has performed flawlessly with no leakage, condensation, or problems with snow load. I leave the two parts attached as it makes setup easier. I can set it up in under five minutes. I would recommend this tent to anyone needing a lightweight, four season, two person, tent.

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

Thanks for the info Dan. I’m sure that will help many people who watch this. I’m going to pin it if you don’t mind? Cheers for watching

[@thegreatecb]

Would you recommend the Scorpion 2 or the Scorpion 3?

[@dancancade7101]

@@thegreatecb depends on how much room you want. I only needed a two person tent. The Scorpion 3 is a three person tent, but I'm sure it performs as well as the Scorpion 2. It also becomes a weight issue if you have to carry it, the Scorpion 2 being lighter than the Scorpion 3.

@@steelmanoutdoors4479 Have you had a chance to make another video with scorpion 2 to review? Or maybe taking it out camping for us to watch? Thanks!

[@aerozg]

I almost went and got this tent, and i am 6.1". Glad to have found this review. Most reviews talk about the general pros and cons, but none of them really get into specific practical details like you did here, well done! Other youtubers, please take note, this is how you do a video review. I am now looking for another tent, recommendations welcome.

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

aerozg thanks man. That’s very kind of you to say so. I’m glad it helped inform your decision. It is an awesome tent though even for its downsides. But not the best for tall people for sure 😁

[@aerozg]

Steelman Outdoors You're welcome! I love Snugpak, i already own a couple of things and was looking to upgrade from my cheap no-brand tent to something more durable and higher quality, so this tent was recommended to me by a friend. I guess i will be looking at the Scorpio or the Bunker now, or maybe look for a different brand for something less bulky. Thanks again!

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

My pleasure mate. I hope you find the perfect tent for your needs 👍

[@tinfoil1463]

I took mine kayak camping for 4 days. Stormed heavily every day. Tons of rain and wind. Tent took it like a champ. I unfortunately lived in the tent for 3 days. Did all my cooking in the vestibule. The tent never leaked. Only time I came out was to empty my piss bottle or go number 2. I left in the rain on the 4th day. Didn't think I was going to make it back alive in my kayak. But I made it. What an adventure. My back was killing me tho after a few days living in a tent. Bullet proof tent. Im 5'9". Which i think is the tallest you can be to fit in this tent.

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

Wow that sounds like some trip mate!! Awesome to hear the tent withstood it all. I agree it’s a great tent for the elements but like you say the ergonomics are a bit on the short side which makes sitting up hard unless you’re right up the front. Glad you made it back to civilisation and cheers for checking in and sharing your experience 👍

[@tonyhall395]

Hi bud, you’ll love the tent, it’s bombproof. I’ve had mine for years and I would rate it as good as my Akto for quality and robustness, I’ve done quite a few winter wild camps in the lakes in mine in horrendous wind and rain and it’s never let me down. All the best. Tony

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

Hi Tony. Thanks for the info man. It’s good to know the tent can stand up to that kind of a beating. I have high hopes for it. Thanks for watching pal 💪

[@greekveteran2715]

At 3:32 I never had a tent, but my guess is, that the metal loop goes on the tenpeg and the nylon loop is what you pull to stretch. If you do it the opposite way, then the tenpeg, will cut the nylon loop at some point.

I love my scorpion 2. Went kayak camping once. Rain hit hard. I have already used this tent many times, so it was easy to set up in the rain. I live in Florida. It rained for 3 days straight. I lived out of my tent for 3 days because I couldn't kayak out due to rough waters on the river. Was completely dry for the 3 days. Held up well in high winds. Not once did I feel in danger. It was home. And a secure home for that matter. So I consider this tent to be absolutely amazing in bad weather.

Hey mate. The door only unzips from the bottom so you can control how much of it gets opened which will protect the inner. If packing up in the rain you can completely take down the inner from the inside and leave the outer up to cover you. This is also good to do if you need to cook inside which another subscriber pointed out. You can just unhook the front of the inner and move back to give ample cooking space 👍

@@steelmanoutdoors4479 yeah saw that. To me it looks as though the groove should be at the back not the front. I thought that would stop the material loop rising up over the peg.

[@johnstansak7867]

I am 6”5’. This tent fits me length wise. I use it as a 1 man tent, as I put my equipment in the tent with me and have plenty of room. The tent is very dark inside, and I suggest a dome light. Lastly, the entryway to this tent is not a vestibule. It facilitates entry. That’s about it. Btw, I have the scorpion 3 model.

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

Cheers for the info John, I’m sure that will help lots of people

[@razeyoshi]

I have a scorpion 3 tent, great tent but I prefer my litefighter tent over it. It’s quicker to setup and has a vestibule on both sides (so gear on one side and other for entrance). If you get a chance check them out and look into pre-owned or military surplus to save money.

Nice review Andy. The front peg point reminds me of the Vango tempest 200. Maybe take 2 hook end tent pegs with you for those points to hopefully stop it slipping. I like its dark in side even in the day light and its small but you'll be snug 🤓 haha. Cheers mate 🍻

In some ways, it's similar in design to my Alpkit Tetri 2-person tent. I like the colour of the Scorpion and the fact the inner is black! Really handy. Mine is white. It does seem very low but SnugPak seem to be wanting to market it as a more stealthy tent? In my Tetri, I can sit up in it quite comfortably but I am 5'8. Good first-insight video and I'll be really interested in your further thoughts once you get going with it! Thanks for sharing. ATB - Ben

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

Yes mate I believe it was made for the British military which probably explains the low profile stealth approach. I think that why the inside is also black, to try and stop light bleeding out and giving away your position. I know it'll stand up to the elements though, so as long as I can get comfortable in it and cook in bad weather I'll be a happy man 😀 thanks for watching yet another vid. Legend 🤘

Hi mate, thanks for vid. Trying so hard to find the right tent for wild camping. As you must know there is 30 billion tents in production currently. Honestly, talk about a saturated market. Anyhow I'm ex British Army and snugpac has always been held in high regard there. So to try and narrow it down I thought I wonder what Snugpac do? And I find this, and all is well. BUT..... Ive heard a few people say if your over 6ft this isnt for you. Then you mention it and demo it. Ahh man! I'm sick. Do you think this would be OK for me at 6'1"? I'm guessing not. :-/ Why oh why would any manufacturer make a small mans tent? It makes no sense. Its like when they make a good film but put sex and to much violence in it. If you just cut them scenes instead of it being an 18 its a 15 and now you just opened up your market base. Same here, no 5'8" guy is gonna complain tent too long. But I cant be a customer. Why would you design something like that? Thanks for the review mate. You may have just saved me some money. Greetings from Geordieland

Hello mate. This is my favourite comment of the year so far! 😆 It’s a great tent to be fair and it might be ok if you sleep curled up a bit or diagonally across it but if you sleep like I showed in the vid your feet will defo be touching the end.

Hey Lee. I was just highlighting my initial thoughts and to be honest only really included the downsides. I’m still yet to actually use the tent due to lockdown but once I’m able I’ll do a full review and include all the good things I like about it too 😊👍 thanks for watching mate

I'm 6ft and it wasn't long enough for me.

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

I didn’t think it would be mate. Cheers for letting everyone know 👍

[@MiscMitz]

Hmm. Not a horrible tent but...

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

I probably didn’t do the positives any justice. It’s defo not a bad tent at all 🤣

[@tony7106]

Got it do NOT buy this tent.

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

Too late. I’ve already got it. What’s your opinion on it? Would love to hear your thoughts

[@tony7106]

@@steelmanoutdoors4479 My comment was based off of how you were talking about the tent. You made it sound like there were too many issues and the tent was not worth buying. I did not hear anything positive about the tent in that review that would make me want to buy it.

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

Ahh right. But this was just my first impressions of the tent. Not a full review. There are some things that I love about it and will explain it all when I get out and test it thoroughly 😁

Please learn to speak the word "here" as a single syllable. It's not "her-uh." Simple English!

[@steelmanoutdoors4479]

Look it up on Google.

😂😂 is it that deep ? find something better to complain about

[@David_Rafuse]

@@steelmanoutdoors4479 I, for one, love the way you say "hee-uh"...just like I love the way that Donald J. Trump says "China." And I'm not taking the piss.
