Outdoor gear that's precisely what's needed. And nothing more.
This is what drives our design and innovation methodologies. This is what informs the technologies, materials, fabrics and techniques we utilize to make our gear. The goal is simple: Arrive at the optimal balance of strength, weight and performance to create gear that's bombproof, waterproof and foolproof.
Dude, I would love to see you make a 32L every day travel backpack in black with a good laptop section, and different convenient compartments and pockets on top, bottom, side, etc because the style/design/look of these is on point and I'd love a sharp looking, light, versatile backpack for everyday use and as a carry-on. I know it's a stretch from what you guys focus on, but would be cool 🤙😎🤙 You could take inspiration from some of the most popular ones on youtube and I'm sure yours would stand out for the sharp design/look of it.
Who is this product for? Internal length of 72" x 18" regular (183cm x 48cm) or long 78" x 20" ( 198cm x 51cm) will barely fit a sleeping pad in the long version, the 'regular' is for people 5'6" and under. Why don't you also provide metric measurements for the majority of the world?
Designed to use with a tarp. IMO even bivy's with waterproof hoods should be left open and used with a tarp, you'll get just as wet from condensation when it's fully sealed.
Is it a bivy though? :) seems more like a small inner telt - than a bivy bag, which usually doesnt need (but some can) pitch the ends, here it seems i would work less optimal without pitching the ends (lots of places i use a bivy you cant really get to pitch the ends for cowboy camping
I'm another backpacker who has moved away from narrow mummy-style sleeping pads, now using a 25" NEMO Tensor full rectangle. While I aim to carry the lightest base weight as possible, I'm not bothered by the additional weight of a 25" wide mattress. If the bathtub can accommodate the wider mattress, great. However, as a fanboy of HMG gear, is it a ridiculous thought to hope HMG will create version 2 of the SPLASH BIVY with a 25" wide bathtub?
Hey there! Here are the dimensions for both sizes of the Splash Bivy: Regular- Head width: 24 in, Foot Width: 18 in, Length: 72 in Long- Head width: 27 in, Foot Width: 20 in, Length: 78 in Dimensions for the NeoAir XLite: Short- Width: 20 in, Length: 66 in Regular- Width: 20 in, Length: 72 in Regular Wide- Width: 25 in, Length: 72 in Large- Width: 25 in, Length: 77 in The Splash Bivy was built with a tapered shape, so it plays better with a tapered-style sleeping pad. If you have a sleeping pad that is a couple inches wider, that will just take a bit from the height of the bathtub!
@@HyperliteMountainGear : in this video, are you using the 8.5x8.5 square tarp or the 8x10 tarp. I have the square tarp and am wondering about coverage.
Bummer, I use a rectangular wide pad, so this is a no go for me. Would love to see a revision with a rectangular footprint. Those narrow pads are loosing popularity.
@@hikingmando totally get it and thank you for the feedback. Technically you could make it work, but it would take some height from the bathtub. The bathtub height is 9 inches!
