Zpacks Plex Solo First Look | Lightest Tent in the World

Published 2023-12-29
Hey backpackers! In this video I break down the (not-so new) Zpacks Plex Solo tent. This is a new piece of gear I've picked up for 2024 and can't wait to test out one of the world's lightest tents! This also marks my first DCF style tent.

Special shout out to Devin over at ‪@BackcountryExposure‬ for giving me a deal on this shelter!

  • That is insanely light! I like it! I have the Altaplex. The design is great and looks like it has a very nice footprint. I believe you need the one guy out on the back on the bottom for the main pitch. It counter balances the main guy out in the front. You have some of the same cons as I do for this design. It’s a great tent and the negatives aren’t show stoppers. Great video Dave!
  • It is the tent I have been using for a year. I love it. Greatest tent I have ever owned. Love it. Great video Dave! ✌️
  • @SouthernHike
    Great work Dave! You know one thing I love is the adjustable tub. I sold my lunar solo and really have been eyeing this one. The weight savings is killer.
  • @ervinslens
    This looks really nice and so nicely and enjoyably filmed.
  • @UnlikelyHiker
    Nice! I have a couple of Devins tents too 😂 Nothing that nice though! Looks like a solid tent. My friend has the original one and it lasted her several through hikes. Enjoy!
  • @Thoth_al_Khem
    Where you are is right where I docked my 40 foot sailboat for YEARS. I built all the docks at the Boatyard next door.
  • @tangenttrails
    Nice review, Dave! Welcome to the Plex club!😄 I enjoy owning both the solo for when traveling light and the duplex for when I feel like having a bit more room.
  • @user-kd1du1yp4g
    All those missing features can't beat the weight savings 😆
  • @rodoutdoors
    That's so light hah. Looks like you got a nice deal. Hope you enjoy it!

    Lightest tent in the world. No pegs, zippers, net, poles or anchor points. All sold separately but will add weight. I really don't understand these tents. If you add to this tent or take away things from a semi freestanding tent you end up at the same weight or within grams. Of course you can make a supper light tent if you make it so close to the edge of being useful
