Snap together a Hammock, Fleece and Under Quilt using our Poncho

Description

As you may know, our ponchos make into hammocks, they also have a snap on Under Quilt, and a snap in Fleece Liner. There is a way to snap the liner on the outside between the hammock and the Under Quilt for extra warmth. We show you how on this video from a recent trip to the Acorn Lakes area.

I think this might be a good spot right here clean those two tricks you

togo more undergo here pull it out of its tough bag alright that first snap we don't do we skip that come down to the next week now we've got a stud here and on this side here that's all sockets so the stud to the socket okay so as you can see the poncho sits here like this set up as a hammock this the outside miss to the inside so we're going to come up over the top turn it like that to go into the snaps then go over the turn it out and in the next one so on alright so out here at the end see we didn't we didn't snap into those snaps what I like to do here is I like to snap these two together like that okay then take these end ones here put them up in there now let me drop on these see that cinches that up right there and we'll just slip these down like that I did this on purpose you'll notice this is short of the end here and that's okay this is the foot in and that doesn't matter at all I still just come up here my entry there there we go sometimes they even go like this and I can just take these two guys snap them together and even these two there you can snap there they can unsnap that I can hook those together now that encloses this whole thing instead of being open like this that's closed down there we go my feet can go up inside of there

I can also take a fleece poncho liner I can put it in here so I can take the fleece poncho liner I can snap it into here as well and I do that I had to flip it in for n so this snap here doesn't match up so it's okay no problem so now I've got my poncho I've got my fleece you notice the the head on my Poncho's this way the head on my fleece is that way that's how we move the snaps work these two snaps don't work everything else does work so now I take my under 12 snaps I snap that to the police ok
