Using this jutsu, Gaara can cover himself in a compacted layer of sand, providing an additional defense should his [[Shield of Sand]] fail. Though quite effective, maintaining the armor requires a large amount of [[chakra]] and stamina. Furthermore, it is nowhere as resilient as the Shield of Sand, since it easily breaks away upon impact, meaning that the sole purpose of the armor is to absorb impact channeled unto Gaara's body during battle. Another weakness is the additional weight of the sand means a decrease of speed and mobility.
