Not quite for me, the vapour peaks are far too small at the front over hang to be of any use preventing rain getting into a bivvy, unless it's coming from behind
make the over hang a bit bigger and they're not far off.
Shame they had to go one step back by removing pegging points before bringing them back, that was short sighted on big open wind swept areas.

I use a winterskin autumn and winter which stops all that perfectly... since using tempest and fox bivvys i have never had one blow away... the days of hanging on for dear life to an oval brolly or turning it around in the middle of the night on big pits are long gone thank the lord!

Didn't Nash bring their version out before Korda?
That awful flat looking thing?

After all the hype and expectation. i found the bobbins underwhelming, look a bit cheap and nasty

I would still choose the illuminated swinger over the bobbins.... way more versatile. And even more expensive.
Are you sure?
