Completed my most intensive poncho test to date... These series of photos document the tent floor filled with 34 two-liter bottles which serves as the floatation system, the doubled up (front-inside-back) two person sleeping bag, two-, three-, and four person LOW profile tent, full poncho/Wing Suit, short sleeve jacket, knee length vest with throwing sticks and bokken and the short vest! Switching between these functions only took about 15 minutes...! The floatation floor has tubes for two ten foot-long support poles along side the center bank of floatation containers... The tent was spacious but I wouldnt want to go any smaller! As can be seen, you simply unroll whatever part you need! being flat and long is IDEAL for being under a bush, laying along a low game trail and can be angled as needed to fit into most tight spots...! The short vest felt mobile... comfortable! Obviously need to see this floating as a canoe... The entire heart of the tent could be filled with hundreds of empty bottles or dried field grasses to serve as a raft or partially filled to supplement these floatation tubes! Not only was it quick to switch between function, I found it was flexible... I could fold it opposite of what it was designed for and yet still find a way to attach the adjustable belt system to get it to fold and lay right! Folding up the bottom 14 inches from the knee to just under the waist created two large internal pockets easily able to hold a clip board... Old liecence plates are to be used as armor if needed as many layers thick as you want!!
