It amazes me that tackle companies are so strung up on "set up" times for shelters.... When, in reality, its "pack down" times, for a fully set up bivvy, that's probably more important...
I have mine. Only bad thing about that I see as bad is, door should come with solid, clear pvc and mesh. Bivvy is amazing. Strong and durable. I didnt have any trouble woth poles. Just bough overwrap
Nash do both! T4308 is the cheaper front with just the door. T4227 mid front with solid clear pvc panel. This is for the green one. So they will do both for the camo! Less than £10 difference!
that my friend is not the way to erect a camo pro. surprised you did not snap the smaller arms. use the first 2 poles either side of centre pole pull apart,move your hands to the outer poles and pull completely out and up,then when it's on its legs pull the peak poles last. when pulling put the spreader block against your chest. ps gd job it wasn't raining 🫡
2nd time was a lot easier. As you say getting it fanned out completely before pulling the peak poles. Also sliding down the mesh retainers on those arms helps as well.
