Informatie: Al mijn spullen is betaald met eigen geld. Ik word op geen enkele wijze gesponsord of gevraagd om spullen te testen. Ik zoek liever zelf naar de ultieme ultralichte setup.
After a long search for ultralight gear, I started shopping in the US. There I got in contact with Joe from ZPacks and had some stuff shipped over.
The ArcBlast 52L backpack (512gr.)
Hexamid Duplex tarp tent (640gr.)
Poncho (138gr.) to use as a ground sheet
Saywer mini water filter (38gr.)
Joe takes his time and doesn't mind trying the gear. If you don't like it, you can return it without any problems.
The quality is just great!
Practice will show whether this expense, which is an attack on your wallet, was really worth it.
This summer I will walk the GR10 with this gear.
After having walked part of the GR10 with the family, I am very satisfied with the quality of ZPacks.
Cuben Fiber, the fabric of the tarp tent, is definitely 100% waterproof and very strong. On the GR10 we ended up in a hailstorm and at one point I thought, well, now it will break. But no, the duplex tent looked like a drum kit. The big pieces of hail were shot back just as fast.
Still, I didn't really like the greenish color. A little less than a year later I may exchange the tent for a camouflage version. A camouflage color because I don't want to be dependent on campsites anymore and just want to stand where I want. The support from ZPacks is sublime.
