7:43 Blake interrupted that guy's sleep.😂

Blake is really into vans now. Never thought I'd see the day when I see a presenter this excited to see them.

[cliffsangelsphotography]

This is my favorite Sea Otter tech vid so far. You don't realize that transportation equipment is essential. And outdoor life is related to MTB, so camping equipment is essential too

[pauljellybeanjones]

I’m so happy your taking the time to check out the vans 🤘🏻

[weekenderfam]

seeing Blake checking out all the vans just like a little kid going to the toy store for the first time.

[AndySimpson]

Something tells me Blake was in outdoor tech heaven doing this one, great video! 😎

[milesssutube]

Soon to be added to Blake's list of jobs - hitch mounted BBQ, roof tent with solar panels on top, ladder and roof-mounted bumper :)

Van life/MTB is the dream

Best Tech episode so far, Blake’s got great taste 👌🏽

[bigbird]

At two meters, I'm probably sized out of most of those options. So I made myself a hammock mount that goes in the trailer hitch. So now, all I need is one tree or phone pole or whatever and I can set up my hammock with a bivy sack and air mattress inside.

BRAAAI is the best thing ive seen so far.😅 greetings from South Africa

Great film blake. Love seeing the camping tech.

[charlesrobinson]

Brilliant vid - really inspirational. I’m planning for my set up for the past 12 months, and this has added some additional ideas so thanks Blake & team

2:10 revel means "to take intense pleasure or satisfaction"; reveal means "to make (something secret or hidden) publicly or generally known"

The dent on the transit had me laughing for a good couple of minutes

[chrisridesbicycles]

Very interesting. Has anyone seen a bike rack with this „clamps both wheels“ type of mechanism outside the US? Looks much sturdier and easier to use than the typical arms of a Thule that are always where your shock is.

[larrypiggins]

Awesome video Blake! That dent in the sprinter van had to make you feel vindicated :D

[onewheeldrive]

Sweet tech for tech. Awesome content from Blake as usual. Stay safe bro bro!
