Just mentioning this. Has anyone tired it? Pictures don't look this this is any more boob friendly than any other hydro-pak.

I actually think my old nathan pack is more boob friendly because it only has one strap across the front and that is moveable (up and down) to wherever it's more comfortable. I wouldn't like to have that second strap across the top. :/ It may be removable though...?

Hmm. I agree--that zig-zaggy strap across the chest doesn't look comfortable at all.

The local Ultra Queen has been loving and endorsing the Orange Mud Hydration system... she just set the new Canadian Women's 100miler at Sulpher recently...

I love my new Nathan vapor shape, but admit it is not for everyone.
1. doesn't bounce
2. great magnetic hose clip
3. 4 pockets reached without taking off the pack; storage space for a whole day without taking off the pack.
4. fits my chest (but I'm not sure a really big woman would like it).

I don't think I'd wear something on my leg (orange mudder) and I don't like bottles that slosh. UQ would have to explain why she likes it.

The backpack one looks a little interesting. I watched the video review. It seems to sit really high on the back, I guess for easy reach.

The video is very romantic. Back ground music. Running on RR tracks with ease. Birds tweeting. No sloshing in that. Oh look, hardly any cargo space on front. Love it!
