Video Transcription

hello people and welcome to another video welcome to episode 2 of new gear and new ideas or a few things to go through today couple things I want to talk about and so let's get to it there were several new options appear that I've acquired over the past couple weeks and mainly for the hey Griswold trip this video should go before the hyades Waltrip and so the new one I got was I of the years I've been on side me a trouble getting a good night sleep but um I recently found that even with I had a thermarest prolite sleep map and that was the one that goes to bed in turn him off and as far as I was concerned that that's a pretty decent sleep map but I still found myself getting a dead arm when I was you know I was at my MOS eisley but I was lying there sleeping I find myself get a dead arm and you constantly turning over and to avoid get that dead on that's annoying it's you don't you're not able to into a not good deep sleep when you're right because you can't have the turnover so I thought wrong let's bite the bullet goes a little bit more expensive bitsy cap and let's see if it's actually worth yeah what this isn't the tip so I went for a thermarest a what's it called totally forgot totally gone blank sir the rest neoair they rushed me away I went for the three quarter and model purely because my colon that was three quarter and I don't feel the need for that extra bit for your legs at you it doesn't it doesn't benefit you comfort anymore having your legs on the floor and if it is a little bit chilly if you carry a seat map like I normally do put the CEO Indian feet but it doesn't really benefit you to have that you don't need to be on a straight flat surface you can get away with having a little bit of a deep and you honestly don't notice it so I went for the three core to make e.m lighter and eat this less pack space look how small the thing is it's absolutely training for a mat and comparison tool do the match you can get well the den sides or one of the potential downside is it's very thing doesn't bother me and I use my gear I've got even treats thing lightly I mean every else has got one of these that I no known everyone's got quiet k cautious that he'll use it i'm not i just right around and and it hasn't popped yet I've got my pillow in there which I showed you in the last episode and this basically blows up to three inches I have three decent size I actually let some air at this one up on it so it's actually quite squidgy when I when I'm sleeping on it but basically what that enables you to do is it enables my hip and my shoulder to sink into a bit more like it naturally award on a normal bed an actual that means is it's controlling tested several times now and I can actually sleep on my side all night without us know about up in it some sunlight just pops up over a little bit but twice now I think I've slept all the way through on one side and not got it on so that's pretty impressive they're not cheap after the three-quarter wanting to render 90 pen mark the Fallen point is over a hundred pound honestly if you're going to go for it just go for the three-quarter that you've got no need read for full length one unless you're a slightly larger guy obviously on the on skin bone and and these things are relatively action Cornero on oh and if you're quite a large guide and you may need to get the longer one because the longer one gets wider just a tip for you but definitely worth it and I said that it is thin but it's not thin enough to pop as long as you going to grown shit damn you're not gonna pop it I'm actually really speak on nail government and next thing I little quickly go over is michael berrer common system and had the caldera come from a while now i have literally just shot a review video for it and that's going to be coming out very soon in the next couple of weeks and see the doin's here for review from me it is and so I've had that for a walk the next I want to go over like this video things I do want to go oh the new pot that I've recently purchased for it and this is the coax 850 you'd only know the this caldera counties built and designed to the spec of the size pot you've got so I body build suspect before actual how the pot because I'm social anyway very simple pops Italian pot one thing actually really watch where this pot is a little click the little m tab here can be slotted along and actually locks it in place that's a pretty decent game changer mon because i know one of the biggest progress with pops yes try to get the lid off and because you can just try that over it locks it up so you can very easily lift the lid off from experience it or the pots I wanted to make sure I had the butterfly handles because I find them very useful because long handles to make it accessible and I also wanted rubber handle as well that was course or quite important for me sorry I'm really happy that pop it's a 3d solid and I've been wanting Apollo this ruined time and/or coincidence the caldera caddy which the caldera carnitine fits in perfectly that is purely by coincidence but it makes me very happy the other thing operationally ball is a folder cup I also go over this in the review of your shop but I've been struggling to find the ultralight call that I actually like i'ma stay away of me because I just thought it caught it doesn't look that good it just looked like as well please plastic bought it was for pound something and I thought let's just give it a try because I'm gonna cook I'm happy with yet that's my weight and for 27 grams I gotta say I'm very happy with it it folds up obviously but I actually don't use it fold it up and I'll just put it straight over the top lock up it's all the Cutty perfectly but the thing that I really like about this is the handle always thought this handles gonna be read shit and I didn't think it was going to hold but actually if you holding about that you've got watery

it's not actually bendy at all it's quite a secure the other thing you can do should actually read fantastic these you can hold it right back and even gonna know shook up quite comfortably so that's that next up we have I have originally made this think now think i saw i think the syntax 77 I saw to make one of these or she'll one of ethan's video basically what it is it's a rehydrating boat it's made from the same stuff that you'd using your loft insulation so i made a flat bottom bag it all opens out I've got velcro on there as well specially what might enable me to do is when I met my own dehydrated meals I can boom the water pull the water into the bag seal it and then put the food bag to this bag close it up that's going to retainer with it won't majority of the heat and allow it to rehydrate where they're going cold 10 minutes in there the whole meals were rehydrated I get out eat and get to food I designed it to food bags in there for when me Demi erect so I'm quite pleased that I am i purely did just to see how it was going to go and actually worked out really well that's something I made something awesome made recently which and I wanted to make this video before and before sent off by any chance but you used to follow Jack McCormick on youtube or he's still following over on their Instagram he was wanting one of it than if you remember Dave Canterbury carries a and what is it it's like a foil pouch it's like a possible pitch pretty kitties fica to hit jumpers after one of those for a while so me and I could agree that he paid me a little bit of money I don't make on-call room and turned it actually really nice so much shoulder i'm gonna make my cell phone and but i wanted to go to show this in the video but i ain't look at the center and quicker than dog around making a video so if Jack is said I wish asked Jeff refer to our because Jack scoring traveling so if he does send me a photo in time I will pop the folktale on screen now so you can have a look about but really quite nice and quite a good size but and really quite pale a point so it's a nice little poke and something else i recently purchased is not this new poop scoop and normally in the woods we just use a digging stick which is fine but when it hiking you're not always not always available for a snoozer stick so i was after a troll and then the company's crow him crowing crowing i'll post a link in the description come over the company's name but it's actually this this is draw a trowel it's nine runs solid plastic actually quite a sharp edge on it as well she's pretty cool but it's very simple very basic i would poop on Matt just so everybody knows but it's a good troll and for knowing crumbs you can't complain you a solid trailed in carry with you do you DD so you can do your business and last but not least and i want to show you this log pouch now this your pension made by a friend of mine err Paul Stokes he as a best I just described it is ultra rod accessories and he makes this game himself under the company name of treadle idea the tread light pinkish red light so click i bought this page it's got a carabiner on the back and it's also got an elasticated loop here and basically it's designed to be go you three through a your buck your backpack strap a hangings morphy around here well you don't have to put it there but that's what i'll put a line and basically that allows me to do these up keep my camera in there the camera i'm recording on now it's literally perfect also the camera a bit absolutely perfectly but it just means it's easy accessible and i can get to it it's like you and fly back very good build quality it's got a waterproof zip so from what my camera in it not to worry about it he says well you can't open it there you go which is very small very 25 bought i do encourage you to go and check out paul's pause ebay and shop i bought several things from no absolutely quality here and you've got good little range of stuff that you can buy from him so please go and check about you i do interested in what kind of accessory type stuff and if there's anything custom in me i have no doubt you can maybe send you a message and ask him it doesn't isn't as far as i know it doesn't do custom stuff that often but it's always worth asking and see if it's possible and not everything that is everything for this week this month or however often I make these videos and I don't want to bombard your too much with random crap but those are a few things I've been and trying to find recently that are going to work well for my outings so I hope you enjoy that you got anything you can recommend me or anything you can think on improve on the lightest of purchase let me know until next time I hope you enjoy the video thanks for watching and I'll see you again very very soon and that's a wrap
