Taking it all with you has never been so easy. Whether in the hills, mountains, fishing, hunting, off-roading, or camping, the Jumping Jack carries all of your gear, provides an extremely comfortable living space, and can be set up and taken down in under five minutes. No other tent trailer can be configured in so many ways as the Jumping Jack line of trailers. Jumping Jacks easily and efficiently haul ATVs, motorcycles, canoes, bicycles, and all your gear in one compact, easy-to-tow package.
i see you did a time-lapse, because doing it in real time wouldnt sell the idea its fast to setup. (hint: clouds) how a video is perceived can impact its sellability.
My husband said this is the best how-to video he has ever used! We were able to change the whole thing start to finish in about 2 hours starting with an empty tent. Now I have new tent smell!
Hi, I am picking up a used 6x8 Jumping Jack next weekend and am really excited to use it. I don't see these stairs offered in your accessory section on the website. Where can I find the link please.
With everything as light as you made it you couldn't figure a way to have it unfold like French doors ? That way wen you upgrade later you can make it automatic Sweet idea I really like how you did your support system
Seriously, thank you guys so much for making all of these videos. I’ve had my Jumping Jack 6x8 Blackout for about two years now and I’ve been doing lots of sh*t wrong. There was no detailed instruction that came with it and the existing videos were vague at best. I’ve watched all the new videos and they are all super helpful. Please keep up the good work!
Hey guys! I''m dealing with my ATV bouncing around on the back when I take my 12" blackout over larger obstacles, or on rougher forest service roads. Would you guys mind doing a video on the best ways to secure ATV and SXS machines to the top deck for travel? Specifically when the trailer will be going over rougher terrain!
@@JumpingJackTrailers Yep, its like one end is too short, the center is a bit tough but can get it down far enough, then the other end seems ok.. it's almost like its off center on that super tight end so not enough tent to pull down, it also affects the bed extension going in place on that side near that corner, those little round things that go over the rail to lock it in to place... without stretching tenting more than it should be.
@@thcrw7391 Id love to see a video so I can see what the problem is. Next time you pull your trailer out, you can send a video to Jumpingjack@jumpingjacktrailers.com and we can figure out what the problem is.
That should fit no problem. You would just want to make sure that the tires are not sitting on top of the brackets that hold the rail to the top deck when you strap it down
Interesting. I always run my ratchet strap from front-to-back, rather than side-to-side. I haven't had any problems, so I guess either way works fine...
@@JumpingJackTrailers Oh, good! I don't want to end up in Jumping Jack Jail! Hey, thank for putting out these videos... we've been Jumping Jack owners since 2007, and we've learned stuff from them! Hope to see many more!
Don't dig the pins. I'd rather see rare earth magnets that clamp the material. Can you imagine how ragged out my tent from 2008 would be if I used this method all these years? I have many other ideas I'd love to see implemented as well. You guys really need to market more to the "overlanding" community as well.
@@JumpingJackTrailers Understandable but some people are willing to pay more for a better product. Always a give and take though. Looking forward to more products.
This is awesome. The overlanding capability is the best (and most underrated) part of the Jumping Jacks! We've dragged ours everywhere, across the whole North American continent!
Great video. I have an original version that the door zipper is way shot on and a few other smaller issues. Really need to replace the whole tent and protective bag soon.
I looked at the lighting kit in your link above but it doesn't say anything about them being magnetic. They only show using zip ties. Do you leave them zip-tied on all the time or have to remove them for travel? Thanks for the videos. I love them.
Great video, I’ve done this myself a few times and the last time one of the zippers got caught in the grate and ripped off from the protective bag. Is that a part I can buy and replace? If so a video on zipper replacement would be awesome in the future!
Also a few questions, 1. Are you supposed to put the silver pole onto the ground with a 6x12x8? We always just set it on the tailgate. 2. How do you get both of the white poles into the pockets easily I can not do it myself I always have to have someone help me. Is there a tip or trick to help with that process?
I have the 6x12x8 we put the silver pole on the tailgate and putting the rods in the pocket It’s easy for me putting them in. Taking them out is what we struggle with.
The pole would go on the back of the tailgate in that scenario. As long as you have the tent lowered, you can fold those rods in to create less distance between them and give you more slack when putting the awning on.
Taking them out should just be the same process reversed. With the tent lowered, you can then fold those rods in towards the center and give you more slack to remove the awning pockets from the rods.
@@ash8959 Im just realizing that you are talking about the fiberglass rods at the other end of the awning. I've got a video on how to remove those easily if you want to shoot us an email.
