| Going after school today to pick up a hydration carrier. It will probably be a BLACKHAWK! and will see heavy use tomorrow. I will give a review shortly afterward. | |

| Does Blackhawk have their own brand of bladders? Not talking the carrier, the actual bladder.
I've only used Camelpak brand bladders...and I've yet to have one that lasts me more than a few months. (They leak...alot)
I think they use a cheaper rubber or something...can't stand up to the rigors of backpacking.
Mind checking for me? I'm in search of a better provider. | |

| ShashaSHA!(like my Dale Gribble impression?) Well, ended up going to a bike shop and getting a Camelbak for half price. It's pretty nice. The only problem is the bite valve. It's nearly like it's on the wrong way. I have to twist it around to use it. Kinda weird, but meh. I was actually going to get this BLACKHAWK! one, or maybe this one, but the Camelbak was way cheaper | |
