Avid Carp HQ MK11 Twin Skin Bivvy
Avid Carp’s original HQ bivvy was famously touted as the most feature packed bivvy on the market and this new Mk2 version has, if possible, even more to offer for the most dedicated carp anglers out there. The Avid Carp HQ Twin Skin Bivvy Mk2 features a twin skin as standard. This means that you no longer have to waste time on the bank struggling with an overwrap on those cold winter days. Instead, simply set up your bivvy as normal and you’re ready to go, no matter how cold the weather is outside. The first time you set this bivvy up, you will need to manually clip in the inner wrap. However, when you pack it down there is no need to remove this wrap again, no matter the weather, as it is completely separate from the heavy duty groundsheet (which comes supplied with the bivvy as standard).
The outer skin of the Avid Carp HQ Twin Skin Bivvy Mk2 is made from a breathable 10,000mm hydrostatic head material. This means that you shouldn’t suffer from excess condensation inside the bivvy, as is often the norm in other highly waterproof bivvies, keeping you dry no matter the conditions. This breathability is further aided by the in-built inner skin, as well as the clip-in internal wrap. You need not worry that this bivvy will be too warm in the summer, though, as it benefits from both front and rear mozzy panels. These ensure that you can get great airflow through the bivvy on warm summer evenings without incurring the risk of becoming bitten to death by the most annoying bankside residents. One of the great features that this bivvy offers is the ability to open and close these vents from the inside of the bivvy. This means that if it suddenly starts to rain on an otherwise warm day (or night) you need not worry about having to pull on boots and a waterproof. You can simply zip up your ventilation panels from your bedchair, ensuring that you are only minimally disturbed by the elements.
The door of the Avid Carp HQ Twin Skin Bivvy Mk2 operates on a letter box system. This means that you can have the door either fully open, closed, or in a halfway house, giving you ultimate bankside versatility. The front panel of the bivvy can also be completely removed via the use of a two-way zip, which is ideal if you’re looking to use this bivvy as a shelter system during a shorter session or on an especially warm day when you want full protection from the sun along with maximum airflow. The bivvy boasts a unique separated pole layout, which ensures that you can enjoy a huge amount of internal space. In fact, you can comfortably fit the biggest bedchair along with a whole wealth of other tackle items into your Avid Carp bivvy. The dimensions of the Avid Carp HQ Twin Skin Bivvy Mk2 are 260cm width x 245cm depth x 140cm height, which ensures that even the most prepared angler will have ample space to store their standard gear as well as any spares and ‘just-in-case’ items that they like to have with them.
The Avid Carp HQ Twin Skin Bivvy Mk2 comes with coloured coded tension straps and a colour coded heavy duty groundsheet. These both mean that you never have to suffer on the bank as a result of an awkward to erect bivvy, speeding up your setup time and allowing you to get down to doing what you love: carp fishing. Heavy duty pegs and brand new pegging loops enough that you never have to worry when the wind picks up and pole tensioning straps keep the bivvy taut at all times.
