New 2019 Amok Draumr standard vs XL

**muggins** · 09-10-2019, 16:58

Hey friends. Can anyone confirm if the new standard size Draumr has the same design features as the XL (revised smaller foot box, bug-net-over-ridgeline, stick pocket thingies for head & foot, etc. etc.)?

I’m 5’10, 200lbs, wide shouldered. Sometimes I feel a little squeezed in my Ridgerunner so might give an Amok a try. I like the idea of the standard for slightly less weight and can try some of the mattresses I already have, and my Superfly tarp.

Yes, the Draumr (formally known as the 3.0) is identical to the XL.
They have a pre order for the new camouflage color.

I've seen the emails on the new camo. I'm not a camo guy myself, but I think the pattern they're using is really cool and unique. I'd be tempted to go that route if I didn't already have an XL.

Thanks! I actually just heard back from Amok on Faceblast and they confirmed as much.

So question back to you friends... is the XL worth the extra weight, or should I grab the standard given that I fit? They’re both plenty wide and spacious it seems.

Also if you had the choice would you stick with their mattress for $100 or go elsewhere?

If you dont need the xl size, then dont

Xl NEEDS their fjol, the regular can use any appropriate pad

Fjol is a decent pad, at a decent price.

I am 5 10 and have owned both. Go with the xl. I found the regular version too small. The extra room is worth the weight.

XL is pretty roomy. And I am 6' tall.

Thanks Shug. If you were buying new, would you go for the standard then? I’m mostly kayak, bike and dirtbike camping so a few ounces isn’t a killer, but less bulk is always better. Comfort still trumps all though.

Not sure. The first evolutions of the Draumr were only offered in regular and they are always improving. But I do like the room in the XL.
