Vision Kashkym Pro Dome 2 Man
Vision is the premier range from Ultimate and this is the flagship product from this collection. Practically two bivvies in one, the Kashkym Pro Dome Two Man combines the rigidity of a ribbed bivvy with the comfort of a dome construction. Uniquely, the Kashkym Pro Dome Two Man comes with two separate groundsheets. The first groundsheet is the standard heavy duty model that you’ll find supplied with most generic bivvies. This is designed to be placed against the rough ground of any number of swims and it is desirable due to its durability. The second groundsheet isn’t as heavy duty as it is designed to be attached to the inner dome of the bivvy, sitting on the heavy duty groundsheet rather than in direct contact with the floor. This provides an extra layer of protection against the cold and damp of the ground and it is ideal for use in particularly chilly conditions.
This dual groundsheet and twin skin means that you can customise the bivvy to suit your needs. If you’re after a little additional space or you’re angling in the warm summer months and don’t require a second skin of heat retention, then you can use this bivvy without the inner dome and its respective groundsheet – instead angling with the bivvy in the traditional manner and single groundsheet. However, if you are angling in colder conditions, or you just like the comfort factor that the inner dome brings, then you can clip it in, along with its groundsheet. The Vision Kashkym Pro Dome Two Man is, therefore, an incredibly versatile system which can be used year round by the dedicated angler.
One of the key features of the Vision Kashkym Pro Dome Two Man is its high quality construction. The bivvy is manufactured from Vision’s incredible Windtex fabric. This is a state-of-the-art fabric which is sewn in a stereo-weave before being PU coated in order to ensure that it is not only incredibly waterproof but it is also totally breathable. What’s more, it can offer a hydrostatic head rating of 20,000mm – the highest possible rating which can more than withstand even the most torrential of downpours. It also prevents condensation build up on the inside of the bivvy, keeping you and your gear dry in all conditions. One of the most important aspects of this fabric is that it can withstand wild temperature changes without warping, ensuring that the bivvy is kept as tight as a drum no matter the weather.
The bivvy is constructed in a three rib manner, ensuring that it is quick and easy to set up. It comes supplied with high quality frame supports, which are manufactured from ultra-light 6061 aerospace grade aluminium, ensuring the structural integrity of the bivvy throughout all weather conditions. The Vision Kashkym Pro Dome Two Man is fitted with a storm peak, too, which directs rain away from the door, allowing you to sit in the bivvy with the door completely open, surveying your swim, even when the rain is falling – safe in the knowledge that you won’t experience any water incursion. The bivvy comes with three door options. The first of these is the standard solid door, the second is the PVC clear door, and the third is a mozzy mesh option – which is ideal for exceptionally warm weather conditions.
This two man bivvy is not only perfect for a pair of bedchairs but it is also ideal for the solo angler with lots of gear. If you’re someone who regularly travels to the continent for your carp fishing, then this Vision Kashkym Pro Dome Two Man is the ideal option for you. It comes supplied with t-pegs and an oversized storage bag as standard.
