Thank you for this video. I've been camping for awhile and could never figure out how to get the tent in the bag nicely. I usually spend 20 minutes and tons of cussing, sweat, and tears trying to get it folded. I managed to follow your easy to remember directions and fit everything back in the bag. Bonus- It doesn't look like a 3 year old did it. It actually looks professionally done. Now, can you have a video on how to fold a fitted bed sheet? :-)
Thank you for this great video! I only use my tent once in awhile (I car camp) and struggle like crazy every time to get stuff back in the bag. After watching your video once, I went out and got the tent and all the parts folded and back in within 10 minutes! Genius!!!!!
Having struggled to pack away a two person tent this is an excellent video. I had the tent folded and in the bag in less than ten minutes. Cheers . 10/10.
This saved what was remaining of my sanity!! I had never packed away a tent before and I was told to do it the COMPLETE WRONG WAY and it just wasn't working. After 30 minutes of that I googled how to do it and this video came up. Thanks Camping Guru!! (Really wish I was exaggerating but I'm not)
Thank you for this. Last time I just crumpled tent up and threw it in the back of the van, then into the closet. “I’ll figure it out later.” Well, later came today since we’re going on another trip. Setup the entire tent in my living room and packed it back up following your steps. Such a simple solution to one of life’s greatest headaches!
Thank you! I wanted to test new tent and I coudn't figure out how to fold it properly. And rest of YT was full of instructions on pop-up tents... With your instructions I folded the bastard in 3 minutes!
Utilized these methods today on my 6 person dome tent after a two day camping trip with my kids. Was actually able to get the tent back inside the original cardboard frame that came with the tent inside the bag! Thank you!
Man you did that like a boss. This has always been an issue for me (and I'm guessing for many others).. I was so excited when I saw this video I had to go in the backyard, take the tent out of the 2 bags we had it in, and fold it per your instructions, and now it's back in the factory bag no problem. Thanks!
this is great man! I was really frustrated about not being able to put the tent back to it's bag. Having boy scout camping next, will sure be using your technique. thank you!
Thank you kind sir, and god bless your humble soul you saved my life. I was trapped in a sand storm with 2 disabled patients with no chance of escape so thank you again
Thank you so much. I was battling the tent to pack for a trip tomorrow and it was not packed properly from the last time. This was so simple to understand and worked a treat first go. I want to buy you a beer!
I got the Oztrail Genesis 9P from Anaconda.. pulled pegs out etc once I layed it all out and then followed exactly your steps.. done in 10 min.. thanks mate.. champion
So helpful!! I got an ozman dome tent for christmas because my friends and i love to go camping a lot, and after we used it for the first time i just couldnt figure out how to get the outer tarp to fit in the bag! Spreading it out inside the tent makes a lot of sense, thank you so much for your help!
Wow. I’ve been setting up and taking down tents for years. I always get it back in. This video seems it will make that process much much easier! Thanks!
I have a marmot halo 6 tent similar look and size as your tent. Your video will be very helpful when I go camping this year. I can’t wait to try out this method Thank you for this amazing tip!
I am watching this in 2020 and if the COVID lockdown ever ends I am supposed to be doing the coast to coast from Tynemouth to Silloth and back again and I'll be cycling and camping on the way for about 3 nights all in all. Honestly, I had never thought of putting the outside of the tent (flysheet) into the inside before packing it I've struggled with stuffing tents into bags for years and no one ever showed me that top tip "Good on Ya Mate!"
This was brilliant. Packed up the tent this morning after it had rained at the camp site and did all 3 parts wrong. Now that I’ve dried it at home I will follow all your steps. Can’t wait to see the magic 🪄
Thank you,sir. 🙏🏽😊Never camped before. Purchased my 1st tent a few months. Unsuccessfully set it up today. Could not fit everything back in bag. Resorted to large garbage bag for the additional pieces 🥴
Yes i have always had trouble folding a tent canvas and fitting it into the bag although having a zipped bag rather than a draw string bag help as with the latter you just fit it around the tent. Anyway now i know the problem i have been trying to fold up the three items sepertely. So with an old two piece tent of mine which i found in the attic and although it is only a two piece with the fly sheet and the inner tent combined i tried this method and for the very first time in all my years of camping it works!. I hope with my new tent when it arrives it works with the usual three part of fly inner tent and poles.
thanks going to have to try this. i just bought a new tent and put it up it was super easy. going up and coming down. but getting it back in the bag has been a nightmare. i can get it close but not quite in it. and it fits in a crate i have on the back of my motorcycle. and now it wont quite fit. maybe it will once i try your method. thanks again.
Thank you this saved my marriage
Mia Louise Botha too easy! Cheers, Jarrod.
😂
Haha this is awesome.
lmao!! 😂😂
That makes two of us
Thank you!!! Now I can finally leave these woods after 41 days!

7 years later, you’re still saving lives with this video. Though I would never get the tent back in the bag, now it fits perfectly!
This worked so good, my tent slid in the bag like a hotdog in a bun!!!
Haha.. Love the description! Glad it worked for you!
Most relevant video I've watched on youtube! Thanks from South Africa!
You’re a genius! Just put up a tent for the first time in my life and thought it would never go back in that bag, but it did. Thank you.

Dude you rock. Took only two attempts to figure out the right length but was spot on!
AWESOME!!! Got it the first time and at LIGHTNING SPEED after watching your fantastic video!!! Thank You!!!! :-) :-)
I don't want to damage the zipper from holding more do I want leave the tent up in the day so I just roughly fold it into a carry on luggage.
Excellent hints. Much appreciated! Cheers from America!
This saved what was remaining of my sanity!!

(Really wish I was exaggerating but I'm not)
I have tried many videos that did not work. Thank u so much. It went straight in the bag.
Incredible! This is exactly what I needed! All hail the Guru!🎉
This worked perfectly for me! Thanks, Camping Guru!
Thanks Steve - you're welcome!
This is pure genius. 100% works and we didn’t even had a zip bag! Absolutely chuffed after about an hour trying.😂

Just bought a 2nd hand Spinifex tent and had no idea how to pack it. Even the previous owner had no idea!! Your video made it easy. Yay.
this is great man! I was really frustrated about not being able to put the tent back to it's bag. Having boy scout camping next, will sure be using your technique. thank you!
Many thanks from The Netherlands, kind sir!

Thank you kind sir, and god bless your humble soul you saved my life. I was trapped in a sand storm with 2 disabled patients with no chance of escape so thank you again
It worked perfectly! Thought it would be impossible to get the tent back inside the tiny Colman bag it came in. Thank you!!!

G'day & right back at you from Australia Robert! You're welcome...
I am watching this in 2020 and if the COVID lockdown ever ends I am supposed to be doing the coast to coast from Tynemouth to Silloth and back again and I'll be cycling and camping on the way for about 3 nights all in all. Honestly, I had never thought of putting the outside of the tent (flysheet) into the inside before packing it I've struggled with stuffing tents into bags for years and no one ever showed me that top tip "Good on Ya Mate!"
Wow... sounds like an exciting adventure ahead all going well - I'm Jealous! Best of luck, Cheers, Jarrod
