Great video bud. You're a fine story teller. What a weekend that was! You captured my slide on landing😂. Did you also capture me losing my water at the start? My flying day started with progressively longer flights but not the massive hikes you had! My feet looked like yours after day one plus some bonus bits of mushy skin fallen off😅 . Going to try a life straw too. The chlorine tabs make me cough like a heavy smoker hiking.

Haha I didn’t catch that bit. Did you sort the camelbak in the end? I found that my long flasks didn’t fit into my pockets when full and wobbled around so I’ll look for different shape ones for the next race. I thought the small ridge would be enough to get up but next year I’ll make sure I get straight to the best highest takeoff

The filter was a great addition. It also removed the fiddly step of threading the camelbak through the harness

Drinking from the flask in flight is not so easy but possible on glide as I have it in my harness side pocket

Yeah although some amazing options when the weather is good there. Proper mountains IMO
