    Snakey Compression Sack for Sleeping Bags (or Quilts?)

    Has anyone seen this on Kickstarter? It looks like a good idea, one that may also work for quilts. What do you think?

    Nice thought, but when I purchased my expensive Marmot sleeping bags, I remember them saying not to "pull" when unpacking. Instead, you should "scoop" it out by reaching in or by squeezing the end a bit to help it out. I'm guessing you can damage the down or baffles by pulling, especially when it's packed tight.
