This video may be 7 years old, but it just saved my head from exploding with rage! Thank you for salvaging my sanity!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

You're very welcome!

[@helensmart-vx8hx]

Thanks so much! Have had 2 of these sitting against the wall in my garage for years out of their bags due to my inability to fold them up to fit. I used to just stuff them in the car any which way. This afternoon I have put both of them in their bags ready for another camping trip. Your video was the only one I could follow logically and has saved me from buying yet another shower tent, that uses different tech to set up and collapse😀🚿⛺🏕

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Ohh that's great to read, you've made my day! When you know how to fold them up they pack away really well and are actually a great little piece of kit. We still use ours!

[@aliciav5170]

I still have to watch a video every time I put the tent away. This is the best way I've ever seen.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Thanks Alicia. Just practice a few times and it'll come to you :)

[@beth6085]

Thank you so much for this video. I didn't think I would ever get this thing back in the zip bag lol

[@TheCampersAtlas]

My pleasure Beth, happy camping!

[@monifabasdeo523]

OMG i swear i just about fought this thing for nearly an freaking hour and a light bulb went off "you tube it got damn it" and here you go. Sir if I could hug you right now I would. After a smack in the face and a missing eyelash I got it down thanks to you.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Wow out of all the videos I've made this is by far the one I love the best! I love all the great comments. They continue to make my day. Merry Chrismas every one!

[@chrisdrake4692]

PERFECT!! I packed my new one up, first time, no problem at all. The instructions that came with it were nothing like this (not even going to try their weird idea). Thanks HEAPS for making it so easy for us all!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Ha ha love it! The instructions make absolutely no sense. Glad it worked for you. Happy camping.

[@aymeebrisbane9539]

Yes mate I've been struggling to fold my camping shower tent down all week but this made it so easy lol!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

My pleasure

[@kaymccain1593]

Thank you, always a pain for me. You made it look easy, will try!!!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Good on you Kay, give it a go!

[@tomharris5521]

Borrowed one of these from a friend while we had a bathroom reno done. Come time to put it away to return, spent 2 days trying to work it out to no avail. Thank god for your common sense video on it. Cheers mate.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

2 days! Isn't it funny how it easy it is when you know how and how how frustrating it is when you don't!

[@leandrobarbero4573]

Thanks a lot buddy!, I've been trying it for 30min, after your video, it took me less than a minute!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Awesome! Glad to hear.

[@sharonchandler3254]

You saved me from embarrassment on my upcoming school camp- the students would have laughed at me big time!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Good on you Sharon, Prior Preperation Prevents P!ss Poor Performance!

[@mattrobertson6380]

Anyone else think he was just gunna throw it on the fire

[@blurtbum]

.. Iv thrown two in the fire 😑

[@lylalowry1253]

Thank you!! I'm someone that doesn't have anyone to ask how to do things like this!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

My pleasure Lyla keep enjoying the great outdoors!

[@AndrewSmith-yd8vy]

Nice work mate, thanks A heap, now to get it out of the bin and have a go..

[@TheCampersAtlas]

No worries mate, go get it out of the bin! Ha ha ha

[@PaulKing1970]

I love that giggle man cos you know the pain people have gone through lol!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Oohhh yeah!

[@EpicDrivesWesternAustralia]

Always a laugh the first time you pack one of these guys away :D

[@SkiWheel]

Thank you. Life Saver! Very different from the actual instructions that came with the product which could not possibly work

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Thank God for KZbin. Can fix anything!

[@stavio12]

Hey mate, out of all the videos on this, I found your method the easiest. I just bought the same one, practicing at home first before heading out this weekend...lol. Maybe because it's new, it's very stiff, doesn't bend that easily. But I finally got it, Thanks for the video mate.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

No worriies mate, yeah it works well and makes using these things easy.

[@stavio12]

@@TheCampersAtlas Thanks mate

[@louishalasz]

thank you :-) great easy vid. Tried for a couple of weeks to fold this up..Happy days

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Ha ha awesome! Enjoy.

[@tonywilson8383]

Excellent explanation of a difficult bastard of a thing. You saved my shitter from ultimate destruction. Thanks mate.👍

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Ohhh yeah another shitter saved. My work at the folding shower tent wild life foundation is done!

[@AvariceAu]

You're a legend. I would have never figured the damned thing out without your help. Cheers.

[@katieyoung831]

Thanks mate. I was struggling and did it first go after your video 😊

[@TheCampersAtlas]

YES! I love it!

[@PaulA30A]

Great instructions - thanks so much for sharing - these are spot on.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

My pleasure!

[@petermcinerney5325]

Thank you, saved potentially a huge argument 😂

[@TheCampersAtlas]

My pleasure

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Hey Nick, glad the vid helped you. Ok a couple of options for you is to go to Spotlight and get a couple of metres of elastic and stitch the ends together, make another one and use two in a "X" pattern. That should hold the tent together nicely. Or if you use a tarp as a ground sheet you could simply wrap the folded tent inside the tarp. These can be used as a short term solution but the last tip for a permanent solution is whenever you go to a campground that has a mini skip bin, have a look inside, underneath all the cheap broken camp chairs is usually broken shower tent and chances are you'll find a perfectly good replacement bag! Cheers Gary

[@causo01]

Great vid, this little thing had me jumping around the place chasing it trying to fold it into 3 loops 👍

[@TheCampersAtlas]

🤙

[@carolsmith9627]

I tried and I tried and I cried! I then did it upside-down and back to front - from the top (not the base), right hand over, left hand over, fold. Easy, did it again, and did it again!😊

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Wow from the top! That's different, what ever works! Happy camping.

[@djnikkis]

Maaaaate! You mate that looks so easy! Folding my shower tent is like wrestling a crocodile! Great vid though.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Maaaaaaate! That's awesome I love it when you guys reply back with these great comments! Crocodiles be gone!!!!

[@paulyb7277]

Those popup tents are a right bastard to put way....thanks for the vid

[@NateIcke]

Legend mate, these things have been giving me the shits for ages, simple n east description! Thanks heaps

[@TheCampersAtlas]

No probs good on ya!

[@geneirvine9710]

Thanks from 🇨🇦

[@TheCampersAtlas]

😀

[@KCC22211]

I’m saving this video as I know I will need it when it comes to pack up. Thanks!!!!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Awesome! Thanks for the reply. Have fun.

[@coffeyvideoproductions7767]

You just gave me the idea that the same tall shower tent standing could be laid on it's side to become a small one person tent. You might need an extra pole and a bit of fabric to velcro to the cabana's bottom.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Interesting idea... It would work ok but only if it wasn't going to rain. It wouldn't hold or shed off water and would end up collapsing.

[@NasTimeAdventures]

This goes on the how to library. Cheers.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

A "How To" library! What a great idea. I love it!

[@bowe765]

Awesome! Thank you for sharing this!!

[@spivtube]

You're a life saver!!

[@gwendolynwoodward1397]

Omg you saved the coronor from taking my body dur to stress. Got it on the 3rd try 😭🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@TheCampersAtlas]

YES! Never give up, never surrender! Together we will defeat the forces of the Difficult Design Department

[@palmyhouso9320]

That Spinifex one has a built in floor that is underrated. If you're using it for a toilet the bugs don't get in as much as the clip in floor ones. Ours is almost ready to retire and I've been looking for another built in floor one without luck.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

OMG Thats so funny, we still use that same tent when we go away without the caravan and it's well past it's useby date, but we can't find one with a floor built in! Please let me know if you find one. They keep out snakes too! Cheers Gary

[@rt-ks2bh]

You bloody ripper ,,,,,,a big thankyou to you my friend

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Awesome I love it!

[@indhi_]

You're a bloody legend mate!! 👍🏽

[@christineannematias5138]

thank goodness I found you doing this so easy. We over think this tent

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Hi Christine, glad I could help!

[@number5810]

this video is my saviour. thanks mate

[@TheCampersAtlas]

No probs mate!

[@thomasandren8415]

Just bought one of these, i could not understand the simple instructions så thank you very mutch.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

My pleasure. I couldn't work it out either, till i was shown!

[@matthewm1812]

God only knows where mine was made and the instructions were completely wrong. I appreciate this video, very much.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

I hear you, I couldn't even understand the instructions on mine!

[@user-fm9hq4so1h]

Thanks from North Carolina, the manufacturer didn’t bother with folding instructions on mine.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

G'day from Australia! They come with absolutely no instructions, and you could spend a day trying to figure out how to fold it and still not work it out!

[@shivastriramawadh6282]

You're a life saver!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

My pleasure!

[@johnpurvis2059]

Did ten rounds with the F@$%ing thing before you saved me😂😂😂 cheers mate 🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Ha ha! Go forth and camp in peace!

[@hutchinsoncleaning.713]

Simple as that!!? He’s clearly got a trick one

[@TheCampersAtlas]

It's an illusion my friend. It's all smoke and mirrors. Did you notice the fire smoke? What you couldn't see was all the mirrors! They call me Gary the Great and this is my travelling side show.........

[@robdrury3359]

thank you your video was the best by far made it so simple I was literally going nuts cheers

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Hey Rob glad to hear mate, enjoy Gaz

[@jemwest]

2 beers after starting to try folding the shower tent I found this vid. Then 8 watches later the bastard folded like in the vid. Bloody magic

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Ha ha awesome! I reckon it makes a great drinking game when out camping. Especially when you know how to do it and your mates don't! And the drunker you get the harder it gets! Turn your back to them while you do it so they can't see how you do it! Good fun.

[@Bizzacks90]

Cheers legend that made it that much easier to put down

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Your'e most welcome

[@xanderbrooks1691]

Thanks needed this after Bonnaroo 😂

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Onya mate hope you had a great time at the festival!

[@didahdahditdah1148]

Finally KZbin has proved itself useful. Only for the practical shit! 😂

[@montykart]

life saver, thanks. Mr control freak had started to shout, saved a domestic :D

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Another crisis averted. My job here is done.

[@christineannematias5138]

montykart oh yes I know this feeling. Over thinking hubby started to shout and swear at Me. I walked away he shouts where are you going I say off to KZbin and found this angel 😁

Blood hell that was ezy 👌🏼😁 I got one like this took me all day to work it out to fold up🙈🙈 End up I Cut in 1/2 andChucked in the bin🤪🤪 Thanks for posting this clip👍🏼 Cheers...!!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

No worries!

[@frankt.7071]

This man is a GOD!!

[@kevinpenhaligon6549]

Thank you

[@awo1fman]

This probably works great for ones that have a reasonable spring wire, but the one I just bought has wire made from ton truck springs. You see how this one flops almost in half just by lifting it in the air? Not mine. It stays straight as an arrow when you hold it like that. After struggling with it for 45 minutes, I finally got it stuffed back into the bag. It's going straight back tomorrow. Shame, because aside from that one gigantic flaw it has all the right features and was reasonably priced.

[@Ri0t1981]

Thanks 👍

[@robertawhitfield2414]

Thanks for the demonstration 🙏🏽!!!

My pleasure Roberta!

awesome tip, worked first time!

On ya Dave thanks for letting me know!

[@simon4043]

Short and sweet Many thanks!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

No worries mate

[@THENOOBIERIDER]

I like an idiot decided to put up mine in my bedroom to test it, 1 hour late I was ready destroy it till this video thankyou 😂

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Awesome! No probs Lee. Saved another one destined for the bin....

[@stevomellor1]

Wish I’d have watched this before snapping mine and chucking it in the bin

[@TheCampersAtlas]

I feel your pain.....

[@digdigger4277]

if the metal ribs are twisted this doesn't work, you need all the ribs to be perfect and stay perfect.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Yep, I've found if you pull out the corner you pushed in, and push in one of the other corners; then the ribs generally line up better and you'll be able to fold it properly. Give that a go cheers Gaz

[@Ambersenigma]

Thank you so much!! This helped me so much!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

My pleasure Amber, happy travels!

[@silvershamrock5489]

What kind of gypsie magic is this

Ha Ha Ha

[@jasonharris5592]

Thank you!!!

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Your most welcome. Go forth and camp!

[@FourLowAdventures]

This explains why I always see them left behind at campsites. No way could you do this inebriated or if you didn't know how.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

It actually makes an excellent drinking game! Try it out next time, but don't tell your mates you know how to do it. Turn around in circle as you do it and all of a sudden it's a magic trick!

[@KarynMP]

Bloody awesome vid

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Cheers mate!

[@nicknoble8015]

Thanks so much, that was helpful. Any advice for how to keep it folded if I've lost the circular carrying case it came with?

[@simongibbs9392]

If only I had reception where I was camping. Had to tie the bloody tent to the roof racks to get it home.

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Ha ha at least you didn't throw it in the skip bin at camp!

[@raymondcasey5747]

Sweet. Thank you

[@1980cassius]

the key thing there was "as long as you know what you are doing".

[@dingusmcscrungophd5219]

You have no idea how helpful this video is. Those diagram instructions make no sense lol

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Onya Dingus! From the amount of comments on this video, I'm starting to get an idea of how helpful it is. I had no idea at the time though!

[@incubusfamiliar]

got it thanks

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Your most welcome

[@bowhunter6914]

Mate fuck me I wrestled this thing for about halfa before I just through it in the back of the truck,the instructions they gave are in pics and they don’t have him crossing hands at the start.Cheers for the tip mate🍺👍🏻

[@TheCampersAtlas]

On ya Paul. I've seen plenty been wrestled with then thrown in the bin!

[@queensalnd]

I ran mine over with the car

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Ha ha ha Well that's one way to flatten it!

[@queensalnd]

If only I had seen your video

[@sparkymizzo]

i was about to, it was doing my head in.

[@iamthatiam7389]

lol

[@stephanyblahey2476]

Heaps of Canadian thanks! Too Right, mate! (Is that what you guys say?)

G'day from Australia to Canada! Bloody Oath we say Too Right Mate! Hope this video helps so next time you're out bush, you don't come a croppa. Cheers Gary

[@marylang2068]

How much are they

[@W3TFART]

Anyone ever tried rooting in one of these ? Not sure how it’d go without something to brace yourself on

[@TheCampersAtlas]

Well next time I see one on it's side doing "The Worm" along the ground I'll know who it is!

[@W3TFART]

The Campers Atlas haha just don’t try and fold me up . Had to watch this again forgot how to fold it up after last time . Thanks mate

[@KangarooRide]

Fuc&&&& yeah bro, I could not do it, just watched your video relly quick here, and got it. Thanks
