 Ultimate Direction SlipStream:
Through hiking the Appalachian Trail? Going on an all day bike ride? What about a day hike? How would you like a hydration pack that supplies a vast amount of storage for transporting extra clothing, gear, bars, gels, etc.? What if that same hydration pack provided a bladder with the capacity for 96 fluid ounces? Can such a pack exist one may ask? Of course, if you are dealing with the Sipstream from Ultimate Direction.
This hydration system is a must have for every biker and hiker. You can load this pack up with all of the necessities and not feel like you have weights strapped to you back. Extensive drawstring cords allow for synching to give a secure fit on one’s back. Velcro height adjustments can also be made so that the pack can be a perfect fit for any individual. The bladder has the ability to hold plenty of fluid, which will remain cold due to the easy entrance of ice cubes into the “roll-up” bladder. That’s right, a “roll-up” bladder unique to the Ultimate Directions line of hydration packs. Just unroll the top of the bladder to fill it, and then roll it back down to secure it with a Velcro closure. The leak proof valve is very accessible and able to be placed in numerous positions on the pack.
The Sipstream has everything you could want or need from a hydration pack. It is multi functional in that it can cross over into many different areas of outdoor activity. One thing to keep in mind, and this is true for every hydration pack with a bladder; water is always the recommended fluid to be used, since the removal of sports drink or other liquids proves to be difficult. Aside from that one stipulation, load this pack up, get it on your back. Enjoy!
