Came back to this video just to say THANK YOU!!! I’ve fought with my swag for years. Had to dry it out from my wknd trip and watched this earlier. Wow - best method! Thanks so much mate! You’re a lifesaver
Just bought the Dune 4wd King Titan Deluxe from Anaconda and taking it away for the first time this weekend. Managed to get it rolled up no worries but after watching gave me peace of mind I did it right :) Cheers!
You da man Gavin. Great teaching style mate. Leave one end for air to escape the "Roll Knee Roll Knee Roll Knee ... Roll Knee. Strap up. Put Canvas bag over ... Too easy!!! Well done.
Thanks for the great review. When I originally did the vid, Kings had the heavy duty canvas bag as standard but I have rolled one up for a mate with the thinner bag. My kids laughed at me when I said I want to do the you tube thing to show how to roll up a swag.... after 20000 views, they are now swallowing their words !! I have purchased a hero 7 about 6 months ago to try and put a little more content on but I am struggling to keep up with technology, and I`m only 48 !!!!!! Just remember KNEES, KNEES , KNEES LOL.
Cheers David, filmed this years ago, still glad this is still helping people !! Over 40000 views showing how to roll up a kings swag ! Thanks for the feedback mate👍👍
I thought there was going to be some special trick shown that I didn’t know about, but this just shows how to pack a swag. Seems like “common sense” isn’t so common by going though the comments 🤣
Thanks, very helpful. Looks like I got an older version. I don't have the straps attached to the swag. I always pulled the mattress out first and struggled trying to fit it into the bag separately.
To easy, I've just recently found out that the new swags come in a lighter bag with the heavy duty bag like mine sold for extra. Same principle but I haven't seen the new bags. Cheers Gavin
i seen you had a video at 6mins im like wtf then i realized how fkn simple you make it look done well, just about to try mine after seasoning it and got my first swag, adventure kings need to hire you for future vids mate haha
Cheers Tas, I'd love to do a vid for them and also let them know that the original canvas bags should be standard as mine was years ago not an added extra. Cheers Gav
@@gavinswanson666 well i wrtapped her up with no breeze mate with matress in it so done well the tip is to undo those end flap doors so all the air escapes, should do a video on the buckle bits where you tie that rope bit up i just get confused and fkn tie it up after going threw the first loop haha great vid thanks for the future advice paid off well boys haha like my xbox video got like 16 thousand views on how to beat a bossfight lol people dont know untill ya try and it paid off done well

Cheers for the comment Rhys, I pack mine with a fitted bottom sheet, a sheet and a doona. I do have an older version so it has plenty of stretch but the canvas bag they sell separately has heaps of room. Happy camping 👍👍
I agree mate, old school swags were on the ground and in ya face! If rain came in 38 degree night time heat, they were a pain! BUT, our pioneers lived in them and survived. At the end of the day, they are canvas, like the original ones, just not in ya face. Whatever anyone wants to call them, as long as we are enjoying our wonderful country, who cares!! It was never my intent to glamorise these things, just thought I'd help out a little.👍
Hi purge98, I did this vid years ago when the swags were first coming out. I would say pull out the self inflating mattress and deflate then put back into the swag and roll as usual. I`m no expert what so ever but I have rolled my brothers with the original 70mm standard mattress with a big W eggshell mattress topper and fitted sheets with no problems. Hope this helps.
Hi Gavin thanks very much. That was very helpful. Have you ever experienced a dud swag. My first one got all wet inside from the rain even after I seasoned it😔
Hi Joanne, I`ve only ever had my 2 swags so I cant really comment BUT in saying that, as a mass produced product there may be some that will fail. Just make sure that when you close up your swag if it is raining, that you make sure all those zip flaps are folded over Cheers for the response.
Hmmm I’ve seen you do it, now I wonder if I can do it. Usually ask my male friends to do it for me, but now it’s covered in mud/sand from the last trip so I need to unroll it, clean it up before packup and prep for next trip
Hi Michelle, cheers for the comment. You'll be right, once those first few rolls are tight, keep it going with your knees (I say that a few times🤣🤣🤣, had a few beers) and it will go together! Happy camping👍👍🍺
did that just have the mattress in it? The website states it can be packed away with two sleeping bags and 2 pillows. Managed to wrestle it in the bag, decent workout but does fit. Wish they'd make the tie down straps a little longer though.
Hi Damien, Yes mine has the mattress and a fitted sheet and sheet on top. Mine is years old now and fits well,but I have rolled my brothers swag with the newer bag and I believe it has more room. I will say but, the new straps are shit compared to the older ones like mine. He purchased 2 basic straps from bunnings and uses those after snapping his. Cheers for the response and glad to help.
Yeah cheers man. Fuck I was taking the mattress out and rolling them separately. Bought separate straps for the mattress. If only I used my brain ha ha.
@@gavinswanson666 Even the part about only unclipping half the rail and then sliding it out. So helpful. Cheers. We just got another one for the kids to share. Great tips.
Hi Nathan, the swag itself is in great condition. The poles at both ends have been replaced with their new ally ones. I've had a bit of run in with kings in relation to the price of the poles and their lack of correspondence with complaint emails. I might sorce the poles and make some coin myself and still be cheaper than them.
Hi Kelly-Anne, if you can, do the same thing as I do but get someone beside you as well. Make sure someone holds it while the other person tightens up the 2 straps. Hope this helps and cheers for the comment.
Thanks so much mate this helped so much! Never thought i’d fit it into that bag haha. Does the mattress go funny shape if it’s left rolled up for too long in the bag?
Yep , the 70mm is in it. The secret is the first part of the rolling up, Make sure it is tight and keep that consistent. Once you do it once you'll be amazed at how much room there is. Cheers for watching , I hope it helped a little. Cheers Gavin
Hi , I think that you could squeeze it in the back seat from door to door completely rolled up... you might not have alot more room to put anything else though.
Hi Dexter, pick a nice sunny day and put up your swag. Close everything up as if it was going to rain. Get your hose and lightly wet down the whole swag, Let it dry then do it again. I did it about 4 times. Closes up the micro holes in the canvas, I think, works to make the product waterproof.👍
Hi Cooper, you have just got to get that first little bit tight with your hands ( 2 people is even better until you get use to it) and keep pressure on it. My brother recently bought a new one and it does seem that the straps are not as good as the originals. He uses a couple of straps for his that he wraps around and tightens.
Hi Matt, there is an old shoe shop here in Maryborough QLD called Langers Broadway Shoe Store, they sell the proper "Surfer Joe's ". I moved here 11 years ago and go through a pair about every 3 years. I love em mate, they go anywhere!!! I was thinking of doing a comical review of them called " the 4x4 of thongs".

Gavin Swanson Yes; excuse me for my lack of experience. Been gathering info to see what direction of camping I want to do. thanks for any info you can give me.
Hi Ramses, I've always used the swag as it is on the ground. I couldn't see a problem putting it on a large fold out stretcher but it would have to be a bit larger than the swag so the corners can sit in. Good luck on your camping endeavours, you'll love it. Cheers Gavin
Anything from kings is coming straight out of china, as is most of the stuff we buy in Australia. I am no way affiliated with Kings but all the gear I have personally purchased from them has been of great value and great build.
Stuart is on the money. I've done the stretchy thing but I'm liking the idea of the custom pvc pipe middle bow. I have another idea in mind but I have to try it first. If it works I'll share it with everyone. The wife gets claustrophobic so we have one each. (Maybe I snore to loud !!!)

@@-Thomas-Lothbrok I actually did a little research on that oztent and I dont mind it. Would be great for my other half that hates the clostraphobic effect of the kings swag. I like how you can put them on a raised stretcher too. How do they go in heavy rain? I am so use to mine now that I love it but I am open for advice. They are a lot dearer but you get what you pay for. I have a little issue currently with kings over the replacement poles which is still pending. I won't say anything negative until I get some feedback from their management but least to say, if I get no feedback, I may change the way I speak about them.
@@gavinswanson666 yeah righto I've actually got the bigger oztent rv4 model which is awesome sets up the exact same way literally takes a minute wind depending i don't actually peg it down if im just doing a night stop but if im spending days/weeks in one spot I'll set it up fully still only takes 5 minutes I've done a 8 months solid stint in it last year as i work country rail and got suck out in narrandera because of the covid thing and couldn't come home there were some pretty solid rain wind sun hail and it still looks like the day i got it and never leaked once I've had it two years now and nothing has broken on it and i still use it regularly As for kings gear I've had a kings awning and qwick pop roof top tent a few years ago and with in 2 months everything was rusting out and falling apart and they wouldn't replace a thing so personally i won't buy kings gear again

@@adamwasserman1761 not bad ! I'm getting a bit lazy in my middle age so I think I'll just stick to my one bag.Cheers Gavin
Yeah my oztent is faster both up and down
Each to their own mate, long as we are out there enjoying ourselves, that's all that matters.
@@gavinswanson666 oh yeah for sure i was contemplating getting a swag or not just been watching a few swag videos 😅
@@-Thomas-Lothbrok I actually did a little research on that oztent and I dont mind it. Would be great for my other half that hates the clostraphobic effect of the kings swag. I like how you can put them on a raised stretcher too. How do they go in heavy rain? I am so use to mine now that I love it but I am open for advice. They are a lot dearer but you get what you pay for. I have a little issue currently with kings over the replacement poles which is still pending. I won't say anything negative until I get some feedback from their management but least to say, if I get no feedback, I may change the way I speak about them.
@@gavinswanson666 yeah righto I've actually got the bigger oztent rv4 model which is awesome sets up the exact same way literally takes a minute wind depending i don't actually peg it down if im just doing a night stop but if im spending days/weeks in one spot I'll set it up fully still only takes 5 minutes
I've done a 8 months solid stint in it last year as i work country rail and got suck out in narrandera because of the covid thing and couldn't come home there were some pretty solid rain wind sun hail and it still looks like the day i got it and never leaked once I've had it two years now and nothing has broken on it and i still use it regularly
As for kings gear I've had a kings awning and qwick pop roof top tent a few years ago and with in 2 months everything was rusting out and falling apart and they wouldn't replace a thing so personally i won't buy kings gear again
Im more concerned about your paddle thongs
The 4WD of thongs !!!
