""Great bivvy once set up."" - soniksports.com's Review
The Sonik AXS-V2 Bivvy is a quick-erect one-person carp shelter aimed at anglers who want a tougher, more weatherproof upgrade from the original AXS format. It is compact enough for regular UK sessions but specified for serious weather.
Official dimensions are 260cm wide, 175cm deep and 137cm high, with a 150cm by 27cm transport size and a 9.6kg weight. The headline material is 16,000mm HH Cloudbase+ fabric. That is a strong waterproof rating in this price class, and it is backed by a new AXS Alloy centre block, anti-twist 6061 aluminium frame and reinforced poles in high-stress areas.
Comfort features are also well thought out. The high flat-back shape improves space and headroom, while the oversized peak, zip-off front, two-way letterbox door and front/rear storage pockets make the bivvy easy to live with.
Ventilation is a big part of the V2 update. Advanced Dura-Mesh rear vents and Watershed vent bars allow airflow even when conditions are wet, helping reduce condensation without leaving the shelter exposed.
The separate vapour cap and wrap options also give owners a clear upgrade path if they later want more insulation or longer-session comfort through winter conditions later too.
| Feature | What this means |
|---|---|
| AXS Alloy centre block | The upgraded block is designed for fast setup and stronger repeated use. |
| 16,000mm Cloudbase+ fabric | This gives the shelter a strong waterproof rating for hard weather. |
| 260 x 175 x 137cm | The footprint is compact but still usable for one bedchair and kit. |
| Watershed vent bars | The vent system helps keep airflow moving even when rain is falling. |
| Zip or clip-in groundsheet | The supplied heavy-duty groundsheet adds flexibility around mud, wet entrances and pack-down. |
