    @Kyiv won't know till you try for yourself. I had one dude get permanent nerve damage in his right arm and hand from the weight on his shoulders and it pinched a nerve during team weak. One dudes kidneys failed and he nearly died and had to get helicopter evac'd to a hospital. Both I had known from basic training and we're in shape strong guys. Mine was not life threatening but enough to kill my performance. Some guys lose their map on land nav, others fail pull ups and can't get 7. There was a 15% graduation rate in my class. And in my basic training class, we were a class of 18x's. If you don't know, 18x is special forces recruit. There were over 100 of us when we started basic training. 3 guys that I know of got selected. They will find a way to get rid of you if it's not injury. For the record I'm just trying to be honest and help out guys who are wanting to attempt. Honestly it was still really fun for the most part. I know you probably hear injury stories alot because guys get dropped or quit and are embarrassed.

    It looks like a sleeping mat. He probably cut it to the height of the ruck, and used it as a liner to keep it from folding in. Don't know how common it is to do that, but it looks like a nice way to have a sleeping mat without it hanging off the ruck or taking up a ton of space.

    Interesting, he explained absolutely fuck all except to put the weight on the top of the main compartment so that the weight is on your shoulders, and not like everyone else will tell you, like keep the heaviest items midway up your main compartment and as close to your back as possible, so that the weight is transferred down the frame and onto your hips via the hip belt (or kidney pad as per this mans description), thus taking the weight from your shoulders and back as is the whole point of the frame and hip belt.

    @Duffelbag Drag A) you likely don’t have the complete system. But B)even if you do, you don’t want to just look at the weight. Compare the weight of similar volume. There is unlikely to be something else that large that weighs less. Also, it’s the last thing you need to remove from the ruck. So in addition to it being light for the size, it also makes good packing sense.

    This design is more in line with civilian hiking packs, which are more linear. This puts the load closer to the body and upwards do it sits on the hips. The old ALICE packs expanded away from the body which tended to pull you off balance and place the weight on your shoulders.

  • @Andy-vh3ns
    @Andy-vh3ns3 жыл бұрын

    Hmm, I am not sure about the weight factor. Adding weight to the top makes your ruck top heavy and can mess with your balance. I was always taught and have been doin git for years -- to have the heaviest items at bottom of your ruck, this way the weight is lower and more central to your core. Plus it puts the majority of the weight on your hips/hip belt then on your shoulders; your hips can carry more weight and for longer periods then your shoulders.
