How does this roll and store? Bungies, rope? How tight can it roll/compress when stored?

bungie works best. It roles into a tight cylinder less 18+ inches in diameter.

The float comes with 2 adjustable straps to store it. We roll them tight enough to fit into a 15"x15" box when we ship them, but they are harder to roll tightly on the water. Typically you can loosely roll it on the water, and then clean it and tightly roll it on land.

Every iFloat comes with 2 double stainless d ring straps to store the float when rolled up. A 12 foot float rolls up to about 18" if rolled tightly. Most consumers will roll it to about 21" when rolling from each end on top of the water. The bungee it comes with is for attaching to boat, dock or anchor.

Rolls well, 2 to 3 feet in diameter & we use the straps that came with float when storing, matt doesn't compress but storage size depends on how tight one rolls it.

I would store it seperate just because it will compress, and then you will have to let it sit out for a while for it to expand back.

The iFloat comes with two D-ring straps that can be used to secure a rolled up mat for storage. We store ours vertically in the garage when not in use. Despite the large size of the cardboard packaging, the product itself is very light.

I've kept about 60lbs. worth of gear in it with no problem. There was no strain to the material when doing so. I don't know the max it can handle, but it can take a lot. Hope this helped.

It's thin and pretty pliable. Maybe even a little delicate but can be rolled easily and lies flat after being stored rolled. I used a shortened xmas paper roll for storage.

It can be stored flat. I bought a roll of paper....it's maybe a 18 inches long and the roll was pretty thick.

If you have room to store it, it can be rolled up. You would, of course, need to wrap something around it: bungee cords or straps to keep it rolled. Keep in mind that it's as wide as a twin sized mattress.

This particular model does not support gel storage. It is only a race belt. I think the description and picture showed that. Sorry.

I have had no problems rolling it up. It might be challenging for someone with arthritis in their hands. Basically, you lay it out flat in the closed position, and then fold it in half in the long direction. You then roll it up tightly at this half-width, starting from the foot, keeping the bag folded and square as you go. At the top there is a built-in strap arrangement, using black cord, to hold the bag in its rolled-up position. It consists of a loop of cord on one side, fastened at each corner of the half-width of the bag, and a single cord with a plastic hook on it at the other side, centered on the half-width. The idea is to pull the middle of the loop around in one direction around the outside of the rolled-up bag, and then engage the hook in it from the other side. This creates a Y-shaped fastening that keeps the bag rolled up. It took me a few tries to figure out how this was supposed to work when I first got the bag, but it's not too hard to figure out. Pay attention to how it is rolled up when it arrives. The important thing is to roll the bag tightly and keep it square (even), rather than letting the bag edges slop out and roll up unevenly. keeping it tight makes it easier to fasten the cord. I know other people have complained about this arrangement in other reviews, but I don't have a problem with it. Alternatively a couple of short bungee cords would serve the same purpose of keeping the bag closed. I like the convenience of having the straps built in.

I used turnbuckles first, had a heavy wind and they twisted off, so went to heavy weight rope and fastened it down with redundant systems and it thus far has sailed through the winds. I am planning to take it down for our winter season and store it until next summer.

no, it's packaged with all air sucked out to conserve space. Once you allow to expand it wont fit in the box, however you could roll it up tightly and secure with bungie cord.

It weights 3 1/2 lbs & rolls up nice, about the size of a 6x8 tarp rolled up, 14 in long & 6 in wide. I will only use it a few times a year, so its fine for me. I would get some better rope though, it comes with very thin & weak rope. Other than that, it perfect for 1-2 people.

Sorry, I gave it as a gift to my brother in law for a hunting trip. He said it was very warm and comfortable - but I don't know anything about the folding and rolling of it.

I maintains its shape whether it is full or empty. You can probably flatten it down and keep it bungeeied down if you want, but I never did. I ride my ATV hard and it did not come loose and malfunction in any way. Great Value if you do not want to pay the high cost of hard shell cargos.

The pastry cloth is great for rolling most any dough. I keep mine floured and ready. Stored in an airtight container. I must use the pin cover with some very sticky dough. Works on every rolling pin I have. The dough is so sticky it sticks to every type of naked pin. Flour both pin and cloth and happy rolling.

It does not compress once you open from the original shrink wrap packaging. However, it is not heavy to maneuver, if this helps.

I got the extre long one and I would definitely say NO. I have 2 bungees and still had to work to STUFF the bag into a 'large' stuff sak. Maybe a guy could roll it tighter but not me.
