  • Howdy Folks! Welcome Back To The Channel.
    In This Weeks Video We Taking A Look At The Durston X Mid Pro 2 +
    When I First Got The Early 2023 X Mid Pro 2, It Was So Amazing To Have Such An Awesome High Quality Pro Piece Of Gear In my arsenal, And I was Stoked To Be Able To Use Two 25" Thermarest Tapered Pads. However, I Was Always Hoping For A Little More Wiggle Room Backpacking With Jo.
    When I Fell For The Big Agnes Rapide SL, The Additional Space Demand Became That Much More Important.
    In Comes Dan Durston To Save The Day With The X Mid Pro 2 + And With This design, Dan Has Nailed The Interior Space That I Think Many Folks Will Love.
    Released Fall 2023, And A Year Later From My X Mid Pro 2 Review, I Finally Step Back Out Into My Favorite Beverly Hills Campsite Studio To Review The New Design ( I Even Filmed It On The Same Day As Last Year By Accident... Meant To Be ! )
    For 1.6 Ounces More ( The X Mid Pro 2 Woven And X Mid Pro 2 + Woven Compared ) Im Stoked To Carry The Extra Weight, And Sleep Way Better. Anyone On The Fence With Getting The + Model....Do It!
    Big Shout Out To Dan Durston For Providing Some Specification Talking Points For This Video.
    Thanks For Watching.
    Cheers :)

    Thank you Zac. Good comparison. Would be cool if Dan could make a “plus” version in the regular Xmid 2p non dyneema. I prefer the inner mesh of the double wall version which helps keep my quilt from touching the fly and getting moisture on it.

      Hey mister !
      That actually sounds like a great request…hopefully Dan see this suggestion. The couple times I used the 2023 X Mid Pro 2 last year, I was having this issue with my sleeping bag. Fortunately nothing too extreme but I was having a hard time falling asleep because I was thinking about my bag touching the walls. I remember a couple nights looking through the tent with my headlamp on and it looked like a sauna in there with moisture floating around…wild.
      Great suggestion, hopefully we see that in the lineup someday soon!

      @@zacmagers exactly! It’s kind of a mental thing. Like… is my warm bag going to get saturated with condensation and affect the warmth for night two? Anyways, thanks for the info in the video. Well done.

      Despite not having “plus” in it’s name, the regular double wall X-Mid 2 actually already has slightly MORE floor area X-Mid Pro 2+. However, the interior peak height of the X-Mid 2 is 4” shorter than the X Mid Pro 2+.
      X-Mid 2 Interior LWH : 92 x 52 x 45.
      X-Mid Pro 2+ Interior LWH: 90 x 52 x 49.

    Nice to come here and confirm my bias for this tent with the big agness rapide sl wide sleeping pads. Great combo bro!

      These pads are awesome! Those side ridges make a considerable difference for sure. I was so happy to see these fit so easily in an X Mid Pro…awesome
      Thanks for checking out the vid!

    It seems that brands are waging a full-throttle battle for the lightest tent. Thank you for this thorough review. Just in time for camping season. You should do a video on what it's like to camp/hike in Beverly Hills. That would be interesting to watch!

      Howdy Brice! Hope all is well with you and team!
      True that, that’s an important narrative / tag line for sure. I’m so blown away by the space in this new tweak of the X Mid design, and shoutout to Dan for giving me some design details to note in this video. I’m super stoked to get this tent out there this year!
      It’s a little nerve racking to film in this spot, as beautiful as it is. LA is not so…accepting of tents in higher end neighborhoods so I have to make quick work of it, understandably so. The amount of times I have to edit out me walking over to rangers or concerned park guests is quite a bit! It helps there’s a camera and it’s seemingly obvious what’s going on but the looks are like “ he’s not staying out here in Beverly Hills is he ? “ it’s a good time ha!
      A night there would be funny. Tesla sounds in the background, a late night post-mates delivery of my favorite tacos, wake up to someone setting up a birthday party picnic, that would be a classic on the channel for sure!
      Thanks for checking this out Brice, congrats on the new blue color way release of your frame, looks awesome!
