Hammock to Shelter Conversion - Poncho to Hammock to Tarp - 3 minutes

Description

People ask.... "OK you made your poncho into a hammock, what happens if it rains in the night?"

This video is the answer to that question. Our PSS series ponchos and the HSS series Hammocks are multipurpose, you can use them for more than one thing. To do this the key is knowing how to quickly convert from one to the other.

This video shows how to go from sleeping in a hammock to changing that out to an "A" Frame shelter in just a few minutes.

Video Transcription

well here I am wearing my poncho and obviously I don't need it it's not raining the sun shining in fact ya hardly a cloud in the sky you spend much time in the woods like I do you know that a storm can happen anytime especially like up here in the mountains 9000 feet or more oh yeah you could have a storm any moment the Poncho's nice to carry but a lot of people don't carry a poncho I think they can get by without one it's like why do I want to carry something I'm not going to use one thing nice about our Poncho's are they're multi-purpose but you can use it as a chair you can use it as a poncho you can use them as a hammock or you can use it as a tarp so when you carry one of our Poncho's our PSS series if you carry it you you have something to use it for regardless of what the weather is or whatever happens you've got a use for it so you're not going to carry something you're not going to use all right got to make a quick change here Malik

now I am nook my hammock pull out my the Ritter's right out goodbye Dyneema grab my little sling hook it back up to the eye there shove this through then it with my spike all right

you good to go here drop it down just a little bit right

I'll grab my tent stakes too in the back use the shock cord on him you give me the ability to have a little bit of adjustment here

in these down both sides picking on him a little bit I'll make some adjustments Internet

hey I want to pull across this way my blanket back underneath there grab my last stake through here and now I'm gonna pull this way in that way give myself some good tension throw my arse my bag in here my blankets already inside

what's that up out of the way now I crawl in

and I am but I'm good to go right there three minutes 46 seconds all right so now then I've got my inside my shelter I'm good to go if I need to go a little bit whiter all I got to do a stakeout a little bit whiter instead of how I did here but this will work pretty nicely for me but when you're in a hurry there you go

about three and a half minutes change from sleeping in a hammock to sleeping in an a-frame that's what it's all about is take less gear with you and do more with the gear that you do take
