I recently put the Sea to Summit Spark Pro Down Sleeping Bag through its paces during a VRA NSW Special Operations Rescue Unit alpine search and rescue exercise, where overnight temperatures dropped below freezing.
The Spark Pro performed exceptionally well. Despite the frozen conditions, it kept me warm and comfortable throughout the night, allowing me to get quality rest before another demanding day in the field. When you’re operating in a search and rescue environment, reliable sleep isn’t just about comfort—it’s about maintaining performance, decision-making, and safety.
The bag packs down incredibly small, saving valuable space in my pack, while still providing impressive warmth for its weight. For anyone undertaking alpine hiking, remote expeditions, or search and rescue operations where every gram counts, the Spark Pro is an outstanding piece of equipment.
A big thank you to Past Outdoors for the excellent service and expert advice. It’s great to deal with a team that understands the demands of serious outdoor users and stocks equipment you can trust when conditions are at their worst.
These gloves are great lightweight gloves, providing protection from the sun and elements without overheating. Thin and light yet protective, the capacitive touch fingertip is a nice touch. The best part is the waterproof cover that is stored within the glove itself when not in use. So good. True to size.
Absolutely perfect. Lightweight, reliable and holds up great in the wind. Highly recommend
Works fantastic, great quality - really happy with the purchase
