Product Information
Full details
The Solar Worldwide Spider 1.0 FS is a premium, high-performance bivvy designed for dedicated carp anglers and long-session campers who prioritize structural integrity and rapid deployment. Its standout benefit is the innovative TRS Tension Reduction system, which allows for near-instant setup and breakdown, though its robust construction and heavy-duty materials mean it carries a bit more weight compared to minimalist shelters.

How do I store the bivvy for long periods?

Troubleshooting
Difficulty collapsing the poles
Ensure you are activating the TRS tension release correctly; do not force the metal block if it feels stuck, simply re-center the tension.
Condensation inside the bivvy
Ensure the Solar PermaVent system is fully engaged and check that the internal vapour shield is properly tensioned to allow air movement.
Zip catching on groundsheet
Check for debris in the heavy-duty zips and ensure the groundsheet is laid perfectly flat before zipping to the main shell.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Spider 1.0 FS involves unfolding the central metal hub and extending the poles until the TRS system locks into place. The zip-in groundsheet should be attached before final tensioning to ensure a perfect fit. Compatibility-wise, the bivvy is designed for standard large carp bedchairs. To ensure longevity, always wipe down the camo fabric with a damp cloth if it has been exposed to salt or excessive mud before storing it in the provided heavy-duty carry bag. Ensure the bivvy is completely dry before long-term storage to prevent mildew buildup in the internal vapour shield or the main fabric.
