Parasheet Beach Blanket / Picnic Blanket by Gecko Active

Maybe this idea as been around for a while and I just haven't seen it. But, if this is a new idea, it is so simple yet so clever at the same time you would think that it would have been invented long before now.

Here's the deal. Most people go to the beach and they lay their towels out on the sand, go play in the water, come back and rub a sandy towel all over their wet body. Plus, the towel is rarely big enough for a grown person to lay on anyway.

This parasheet blanket (made out of nylon, like a parachute) is designed to go straight down to the ground first and then you put the towel (and everything else) on top of it. It is 7 feet and 6 and 1/2 feet wide. And, if that isn't big enough, you can snap several of them together in a row. 

The blanket has little pouches in each corner to put sand in to serve as anchors and, if that is not strong enough, you can even use the corner loops and put stakes down.

When you are done, shake the sand or dirt free , fold it up, stick it in the little bag, clip it to your backpack and you are gone. 

I rate this blanket 5 stars out of 5.

Note: I reviewed a free sample in order to evaluate it so that I could write an honest review.
