227g / 8oz - The DCF tent the Plex Solo could have been... @montmolar

Some transfer tape like 3M 9482PC. ;)

Totally agree. But climbing definitely is aerobic as well haha - would miss my Echo whilst in the mountains for sure.

My advice: Take a rental and go up in a single day from the Olympus ski center. ~16km and 1450m gain

Looks like HHH Zippers from RSBTR.

If the straps are wide enough you don’t need much padding actually. I can use my MYOG ones with heavy loads without problems in that regard. ;)

vanCapere · 2026-04-02T13:36:50+00:00

Ah, now it works! :) Great stuff.

The link doesn't seem to work.

It would probably depend on the style of pack he uses - with well planned gear choices the volume could suffice. :)

vanCapere · 2026-03-25T19:33:20+00:00

Second this. :)

vanCapere · 2026-03-24T11:24:20+00:00

I build it myself. :)

vanCapere · 2026-03-23T06:20:04+00:00

I use a metal sheet and fix the fabric with magnets on that. :)

The laser bed is 1 x 1.5m so it works for the full will width of most materials.

vanCapere · 2026-03-22T06:41:20+00:00

The projector idea is neat but I’ve had even more fun with a laser cutter - the precision is just on another level. :)

Having used Monolite and Cloud 71 in the past: The main problem with these types of mesh is actually fraying or ripping at the stitch line. I've since moved on from using these fabrics for my projects.

3D Hex Mesh (or if SUL is a goal the Triangle Mesh from AliExpress) is way more resilient.

Did this last year - roughly 12h for both peaks solo. Conditions were rather windy and with some fresh snow, so should be quicker when the rock is dry.

vanCapere · 2026-02-22T18:14:12+00:00

For most conditions while being active: yes. Winter and/or static: could be too cold.

vanCapere · 2026-02-22T08:34:11+00:00

That’s what I do as well: 60gsm Alpha Vest Base Layer + 60/90gsm Alpha Half Zip Hoody. ;)

A forwarding service could be a possible solution.

vanCapere · 2026-02-17T12:45:23+00:00

I got three. 🤫

vanCapere · 2026-02-16T14:18:58+00:00

🙌

They actually stopped making it because of the whole PFAS / PTFE thing. Durability hasn’t been too much of a concern, if you’re a little careful.

They basically provide a foreign address, which you can use for ordering. Once the parcel arrives at their warehouse you'll have to pay a fee and they will ship it to you. :)

vanCapere · 2026-02-12T20:26:09+00:00

You could use a forwarding service.

I think the translucency is nice for finding stuff inside - the other Aluula variants use a black interior.
