Translation:

Trakker Tempest X 100 DPM System Aquatexx EV 1.0
In 2021 we will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Tempest Shelter.

The Shelter, the Skull Cap Wrap and the Insect Panel will be available as a set as a limited offer.

The bundle is made from the improved “Aquatexx EV” DPM-Camo version.

This package deal will be available in two size options, 100 and 150.

In our opinion one of the absolutely best bivvies on the market.

Here one only reached up on the shelf.

The ingenious Aquatexx® material and otherwise only the highest quality materials make this tent something very special.

If you want the best, you've come to the right place - the Bivvy is worth every penny!

Absolute buy recommendation!Trakker Tempest X 100 DPM System Aquatexx EV 1.0

I was thinking about this the other day sat in my V2 Bivvy.

The material just seems to be coated on the inside with some sort of rubberised finish, so how that is breathable I don't know as the Gore-Tex principle (which I always thought Aquatex was based on) is all about the microscopic holes in the fabric, that's how it works. My old M3 the material on that is similar but doesn't have the coating and in the right light you can see the 'weave' in the material from the inside so leaving the material more breathable surely.

got to say the best bevy material i have even had was on my old JRC TX2G. Thick with a very rubbery feel on the inside. This still was very breathable with zero condensation even without the second skin. Guess it all depends on the quality they went with first up and perhaps the cost has come down on the better stuff so they can claim its all new and advanced and charge a premium for it. (cynical i know!)
