Keeping hydrated during your activity is absolutely key to your performance, so the easier it is to keep drinking water, the better! Hydration systems, water bladders, water reservoirs… whatever you call them, hydration systems are the best way to ensure that you get the optimum amount of water to your body. Having the mouth piece next to your shoulder means you don’t have to stop to keep hydrated. We are often dehydrated well before we get actively thirsty, but a hydration system allows you to take regular sips on the go. Most rucksacks nowadays have a dedicated pocket for a hydration system, as well as a special outlet point for the tube to pass through to the exterior of the pack, without letting any water in.
