Hi. I am tempted by an Easy Dome Bivvy. Something like a Fox one-man
Easy
Dome. Has anyone had any experiences with them?

You may want to take a look at the Chub Rapid XS 1 man also. A fairly large
one man bivvy. Bedchair will go across bivvy with ample free room each end
or front to back centre apex if you prefer. Also the gap between the inner
and outer shell is larger than on any others I have seen. It has a huge
hydrostatic head, integral groundsheet and has been wind tunnel tested. It
goes both up and down very easily. Here is a link if you are interested in
finding out a bit more.

Cheers Richard. I have played with the Chub XS domes, but they don't seem
to pack away that easily.

The hydrostatic head is the same as the Fox One-man Easy Dome if I remember
correctly at about 3500mm.

I found the knack is to just make sure you pull the poles in tightly (tight
as you can) this reduces the overall size and then it goes in the bag quite
easily.

Works for me anyway ..... stay well ...... Richard
