Wild Fun with the Wazoo Adventure Bracelet! Video & blog post collection

Hello Adventurers!

First weekend of 2015 and I'm planning to get a final attempt to catch a fish on tape using the gear from the Awesome Wazoo Adventure paracord survival bracelet! I LOVE this bracelet & using the parts. 

The fishing challenge is indeed a challenge! It's testing me to switch my approach up. I'm Game for a final round before the contest closes 1/10. Wish me luck! :-) In the meantime, check out my video/posts collection below on the demos I performed.

Here are a few scenes from my making a homemade fishing lure demo video. LOVE the creative thinking this contest has challenged my approach!:-)

Pictures from another fishing attempt outting. No catch yet & the James River ate my lure on this day. BAD! Handy there's a 2nd hook in the Adventure bracelet!

Action shot working the Wazoo fishing challenge on the beautiful James River in Richmond, Virginia! 

No fish, ok. Time to play with paracord.

Another on the James River Wazoo fishing attempt action shot. This ex-Cali Gal goes BRRRR at 60ish degrees;-)

Since receiving the Wazoo Adventure bracelet to demo, I've been blogging & posting a series of YouTube videos . I'm having a blast demoing the pieces!

This bracelet has 16 survival skills tools integrated in the paracord bracelet. I haven't seen one like it and am an even bigger fan after the demos!

My videos (links below) and blog posts feature:

* Seeing the bracelet in action 

* Explanation of each item

* A demo of me using each of the 16  

  components

* Me having a BLAST reviewing this 

  awesome bracelet

For as long as I can remember, I've had a passion for learning about survival skills. I love the feeling of preparedness, gaining knowledge about dealing with certain scenarios, and the empowerment knowing what to do myself if I had to use the skills. I have my Dad, a true Adventurer, to thank for most of the skills I acquired and my ongoing passion for learning more!

I'm looking forward to continuing to share my experiences covering the Wazoo Adventure bracelet. 3 things to view the action and get into the game!

Video 12: Fire made on 1st attempt! Wazoo Adventure bracelet demo/review

WAHOO Wazoo! Made my fire in seconds using the adventure bracelet first aid tinder packet, striker blade & firesteel! What a combo!!! Certainly one I'd want in a survival situation.

Safety first! For this demo I used aluminum for oil as part of my workstation. I demo that I use the little ceramic knife on the opposite end of the striker blade to cut arrange your van just a demo how sharp that little knife is. For my fire making, I found some little dry grass do you make a little miniature nest and put the first aid tinder material on top of it. Check out the video to see just how quickly that fire was lit in mere seconds! 

I continue to rave about this bracelet. I haven't seen a bracelet out there that incorporates 16 different tools within the bracelet itself. I'm a big fan of it now especially after doing these different demos and testing out the parts. I think of worse scenario if I lost everything or someone that I love lost all their gear I really want them to have something around the wrist like this that could help support their survival until they were rescued. 

That being said, the big key here is not only to have the equipment, but to also know how to use them. That takes practice, someone showing you, or you read up on it. I find this stuff very interesting, fun in the challenge, and fascinating. I'm having a blast with this opportunity through Wazoo's review challenge to test out some of their pieces, share some of my techniques with you and have fun while doing it! 

Check out some action pics from today's demo taping & learn more through links below in the Watch Do section!

Getting ready for fire making action! Fasten your seatbelts!:-)

My lil smurf fire! Wazoo first aid tinder on top, ready for action.

Demo using the mini ceramic knife on the opposite end on the striker blade. I really like the little sheath to protect the important digits...fingers! My pinky wants no knife action!:-)

BAM on first attempt! Great pieces Wazoo. Worked faster than I anticipated. Watch the video for the action!

FIRE on my first attempt! I love this bracelet. AWESOME:-D I'm confident by testing this in action that I most definitely want this bracelet around my wrist when I go out for my future adventures.

Hi Adventurers! 

WooHoo! The Wazoo Adventure bracelet is torn down. Take a look as I walk through all the parts.

I hope you are having an awesome weekend! I am.:-) I have disassembled the Wazoo Adventure bracelet & even caught a fish after. I didn't catch the fish YET ;-) with Wazoo's supplies, I had my rod & lure today. Nonetheless, I'll be attempting catching a fish with Wazoo's adventure bracelet supplies!! Stay tuned.

Today I filmed a few videos around the bracelet tear down which was done with ease. Genius design of how the tools are integrated. I had no issues disassembling the bracelet.

Video 5: Wazoo Adventure Bracelet Review - Getting Fired UP!

Impromptu video to give a quick demo of the Firesteel & Striker blade in action! 

Friends, I just couldn't wait:-) Here's a brief demo of how awesome the firesteel and striker blade combo on Wazoos bracelet works. 

I wasn't planning on doing this demo but I just felt inspired. I'm confident I could've started a fire faster, but what I would tell you all is that I was actually holding a Q-tip, believe it or not, between my feet for this demo!:-) Talk about self-reliance videotaping! Not easy my friends, but I was up for the challenge and I did it!

http://youtu.be/bSSUShiibN4

So again, this was just a quickie sneak peek of how awesome the tools from Wazoo's adventure bracelet work. I cannot wait to give you more demos as I totally undress the bracelet this weekend! GAME ON!:-)

Video 1: Buckle up! Let's get the Wazoo Review party started!

Hello Fellow Adventurers!

I'll be posting a series of YouTube videos over the next few weeks to review the Wazoo Adventure bracelet. My videos (link below) and blog posts will feature:

* Seeing the bracelet in action 

* Explanation of each item

* A demo of me using each of the 16  

  components

* Me having a BLAST reviewing this 

  awesome bracelet

* TBA ~ Some special features to come

 

For as long as I can remember, I've had a passion for learning about survival skills. I love the feeling of preparedness, gaining knowledge about dealing with certain scenarios, and the empowerment knowing what to do myself if I had to use the skills. One of my favorite books is the US Army Survival Manual: FM 21-76. Check it out. Insightful!

My interest in and inspiration to continue learning about survival skills was my Dad. He was an accomplished Army Officer, though he would never boast about honors/medals.  That was one of the many qualities I admired about him. In his younger days, he lived adventure being a part of the 82nd, a Green Beret and venturing to far off places. Growing up he shared with me ways to do things and readings. He passed away this year. The opportunity to practice with this product review keeps my memories strong of our talks about survival skills, which I always enjoyed. He will always inspire me.

So, I'm looking forward to sharing with you my experience of covering the Wazoo Adventure bracelet. 3 things to view the action and get into the game!

Action shots from today. A freeze frame from my YouTube video just posted!

Wearing the bracelet at the Farmers Market in Richmond, Virginia, this morning. I love my fresh produce. Feeding the mind and body with quality keeps my happy feet fired up! Here I am buying Okra from Crumpton Farm.

This bracelet is loaded with 16 tools integrated in it. I really like Wazoo's site. Clean look and details on each of the survival tools. 

Hyperlinks on the site cover each item found in the bracelet.

The folded insert that came with the bracelet includes great overview details.

Details and specs on each item!

The list continues! In my first video, I demo the whistle. Really smart design integrating it in the buckle. Easy to use.

Made in the USA, right on!

Nick, this bracelet ROCKS! Looking forward to unveiling more.....

....and a sneak peak at my next video to be posted. It will introduce the compass, glow light & reflective mirror. 

Is this bracelet "exciting around your wrist" or what?!!? 

Stay tuned for more, Fellow Adventurers! 

WOWZAS! Check out Wazoo Survival Gear's Adventure Bracelet

WANT!

I never really got the paracord bracelet thing. I admit I didn't know all the things it could potentially be used for, but after seeing a video posted on Survival Life, I'm really liking the sound of Wazoos Adventure bracelet!

Any ex-Green Beret Dad's daughter( like me) probably gets great survival kit goodies & ideas. I certainly have some handy portable survival kit/gear my Dad gave me. This bracelet is something different. If you're separated from your stuff, you will be equip with some excellent options to help you, all around your wrist! I'm intrigued! From what I've seen in the video features I viewed, I would like this with me on Any outdoor adventure.

Wazoo, how about sending me a sample so I can take it apart to do a live action Female Adventurer product review! :-) You will not be disappointed. If you send me a sample to review, with the  separate components so I don't have to use the one I buy (I'd like to save that for any real deal scenario) I will make an outdoor action video product demo. I have an amazing setting for it, The Mighty James River here in Richmond, Virginia. Refer to last picture!

What do you say, Wazoo? Up for the challenge & a Female Adventurer video product review & shoutout?! Double dare you.:-)
