      Hola, I need your tent advice!! My young son wants to start coming out with me, so i need a two person tent, so I thought i could kill two birds with one stone and get a good four season, which i could use for some winter camps.
      SC2 or Allak 2, what are your thoughts or any cuve ball options?? Cheers

    sierra designs meteor 3000 2p is a fantastic tent for the price, weight, design and quality. The interior space for the weight is the best I’ve seen so far and the outer shell option to roll back in decent weather is a excellent feature !!

    Both great tents Hazy.
    I have just bought the pioneer 2.
    Just been out sat in it.
    Love it.
    I have the helm1 and love that but it’s nice having a bit more space.

    I know this is late but Terra Nova have the Pioneer 2 with footprint at £349 right now. Taking this into account and the fact I will sometimes carry it on my back and camp up in the hills but hopefully not in horrendous wind, (you never know though) would you feel ok recommending the Pioneer 2 for just myself. I don't really want to go over 2kg for the tent. Cheers. Keep up the awesome work.

  • @wad6216
    @wad6216 Год назад +2

    The inners looks a bit saggy in both these tents. I honestly think they are both over priced though especially the Southern Cross. They are in the end Made in China and nothing revolutionary in terms of material or designs and pretty heavy too. Some good features like having a thicker floor and pitch inner first are welcome at the expensive of a little weight though. I would personally go for a US made tent like A Scarp 2 solid inner with the cross poles as an option for taking it into four seasons and maybe a spare mesh inner for the warmer seasons. A US made tent with more room inside and better materials. I notice Terra Nova like many are also not specing DAC poles and substituting with cheaper poles on newer things but prices are a lot more expensive with lesser quality. Like your Content Haze its good to keep swapping some stuff out to show people what is out there though as well as your great videos of your trips.

    Bought the Pioneer 2 after watching your original video, as a solo user it's spacious and intimate/cosy which is an advantage in colder weather, I can honestly say I am over the moon with it, I'm also pleased to fly the flag for a GREAT BRITISH BRAND

    This was the one comparison of tents I wanted. I have the pioneer2 and love it. Ventilation looks better in SC2 and nice to have 2 vestibules, but I just can’t see me replacing the pioneer2. The price difference is huge too.
    I really like those vents on the end of the SC2 though.
    Both amazing tents though and I can see why you would pick the SC2 with your mountain top camps in all weathers it will suit better

  • @TheOneLegWanderer
    @TheOneLegWanderer Год назад

    I’ve been looking at both these tents and I’m considering replacing my one man oex bobcat for the pioneer 2. Before that I’m saving my pennies for the north lite 2 with optional tracking pole reinforcement. Thanks for the video.

  • @Rwecosher
    @Rwecosher Год назад

    I’ve had one tent for ages - Vaude Terratrio. Nowt fancy but not bad at all, just too small. Been looking for something else for weeks now and still not set, but starting to think the Tarptent’s are looking like the way to go, mainly for the space. Why are the Terra Nova/Wild Country lacking in space, especially head height? The Scarp 1 is enormous in comparison and light. The Stratospire might be the one for me though. Also looking good on paper; the Weschel Bella, even I’m not a womb possesser. Big porch, decent height, outer first and light.

  • @seanhague60
    @seanhague60 Год назад

    I've got the Pioneer 2 and I've had it out in some horrendous weather up in the Mournes, always felt bomb proof. I like the look of the SC but really can't justify the price.

  • @tuftywhite9628
    @tuftywhite9628 Год назад

    I've been looking at replacing my 4 season tent, but can't get over the fact that nothing is more comfortable or bomb proof than a Quasar. That's my benchmark and would be the tent I'd be replacing, but I can't quite justify it with these other tents. (wanting to stay brand loyal) If Terra Nova could redesign the Quasar to be pitched inner and flysheet together, that would be a clear winner.

    Before watching your result I thought you'd go for the Southern Cross; they are both great tents, but the SC is better spec, larger and a full on 4 season tent. I own neither so will have a go at winning the Pioneer from you.

  • @sixwestpoint
    @sixwestpoint Год назад +1

    I was looking at the Souther Cross 2 and now think I'm going Northern Lite instead. But and I have a bit of beef here. Last year I thought the Southern X was around £6??.00 something albeit out of stock when I bought my MSR HH which was a factor Terra Nova had some stock shortage last year when I was buying. Now for the Beef...... It appears that TN have inflated their prices simply so that they can offer the 20% discounts not just for yourself but other RUclipsrs offering same. Now I don't mind paying the market rate but I find it a bit suspicious (Trespass Technique I like to call it) when prices get hiked just before significant discounts become available...
    Anyway thanks for the review tbh the SX was my dream tent last year based on your use and review of the same. Great content and why is it I feel like I know you ?

  • @southcoastoutdoorsuk6301
    @southcoastoutdoorsuk6301 Год назад

    SC2 is double the price so always gonna win , but when you can get a Northern Lite 2 for £495 it’s gotta be a consideration bombproof 👍

    Hi, do you think the 2023 updates to the tent are significant? I can buy an end of the line 2022 one for 80 quid less than the 2023 one and i wondered if that was worth it? I also saw another review that said the updates made the tent heavier, which might be another reason to buy a 2022 model.

    just add a comment that I have the pioneer 2, defo a 1 man tent, or one man and his dog ( in my case ). I have a wide long matt that I also use in my Amok hammock. and it just fits in length ways and I would struggle to get 2 normal thin pads inside to be fair. I think the pioneer 2 now comes with the groundsheet too in that £400 price. I just have a bigger tent already for when I am with company as it would be company and dog, so I take a 3 man one. I would say for the price point, the pioneer 2 wins overall, however. if you don't already have a tent for company, then the southern cross be best, if you are always taking company. For me, this is rare, hence my 3 man job for when I really need that space and headroom etc. anyway, just thought i would add 2 cents ya know, for the rest of the followers and hazed out folk.

    Bit of a no brainer really. Apart from the huge cost differential the Southern Cross is bigger and stronger. I've got the Pioneer 2 and it's a great tent for the money but not really a 2 person tent as you say.
