We're just back from the massive
European
OutDoor trade show at Friedrichshafen in Germany where
virtually every brand you can think of has been showing off its latest
equipment and clothing due out in 2010.
We'll be bringing you scoop looks at the best of it over the next few
days, but just to whet your appetite, here's
Osprey's innovative new
hydration pack which uses a system called 'Hydraulics'
that, along with some other interesting features, makes it subtly
unlike anything we've seen before.
The show award judges obviously liked what they saw and gave it a gold award and with both
hiking and mountain bike-specific versions in the range both walkers
and riders are catered for.
Anyway, here's a look at the walking version of the Hydraulics System
packs, full details of what makes it different and a look at the
mountain biking version for those of you with wheels on the
site tomorrow along with a lot more.
