For you senerio players.. Waterpod

[BREAD_DA_PAINTER]

Found this doing a different search. Thought it would be helpful for some of you senerio guys, Im never in a game long enough to need to take water on the field.

That's actually pretty cool idea.... would allow a lot of folks to use their gear for the water instead of having to do the camelbak route...

I'm impressed.... may not get one for some time, but wouldn't mind picking up a couple for those hot days. It's not like you can't use em as a standard canteen/water bottle..

i have to look at these at home but i have been using pods like this for awhile LOL they make great beer mugs at big games while sitting at the fire :P

Umm cool idea but how would you drink out of it with a mask on? I would think it would be difficult. Especally with a mask that the guard is hard plastic.

[wetwrks]

I can see some noob taking their mask off during a game because they needed a drink.

[BiNumber3]

n most fields kick u off instantly for mask removal, even if u only move it up a bit...

[Sumthinwicked]

flex ize ;P gotta love em or bring a straw ?

[Hilltop Customs]

add a remote straw and its an ok idea, without that, it is a dangerous product.

[DevilMan]

Yeah I didn't look it over enough.... if it has one of those straws that slips down into the middle of the lid it'd be alright....

Mike did a review on one of these when he reviewed his Flurry vest.

He was able to get it under his mask and tip his head back to get a drink, or he just poured it through the grille and didn't care about the splash and such...


I prefer the Camelbak, many vests come with pockets for them anyway.

I'm not sure if you have similar sized bottles, but what i also see in europe is that players just slip in a 0.5 liter soda/waterbottle in their pack. Usually i just hydrate between games, when i have to go back to the camp site to reload on paint. At biggames you are allready carrying alot of stuff and usually at mahlwinkel you arent longer in the field than 2 hours.

Come on guys. You know very well they've thought of that and are in the process of accessorizing it. Just give them time.

FYI...

Military canteens have a hookup in the center to put a drinking apparatus while in MOPP Level-4 and have a slew of accessories so you can use it like a camelbak and what not.

[gunman_2000]

there was a thread and review about these on MCB a few months back. neat lil product.

Bingo. That's why I'll never move away from a camelback.

That is mentioned on the site, and they say to use it in the staging area or get one of the straw things, which makes it a rather useless product methinks.

Good idea, but a regular 500ml bottle of water also fits perfectly in a pod pack. I've been using that for years without any problems, although I've recently switched to a camelback. That way, you don't need to be in the deadbox or staging area to drink.
