Hi all,
In the market for a Camelbak or other hydration system.
I wear a kayakers low profile PFD when paddling so I was looking at 'bum bag' type hydration pack.
I did notice in Melb-DWers-getting-serious www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Stand-Up-Paddle/SUP/Melb-DWers-getting-serious/ that a few guys a wearing standard type packs over their PFDs.
I noticed the awesome conditions too. Lucky buggers.
Does backpack over PFD work OK? If you were buying again today would you still get a back pack or go for bum bag? Any other comments?

kole hydration pack. fills in a bladder,bite on the nozzle and pumps your favourite liquid in your gob. no sucking required
Most of the paddling PFDs allow for a camel back. All the main ocean races in Australia now require PFDs so make sure you get a 2 in 1 arrangement.
BTW - It is not (all) my winter fat suit
- I have a PFD with drinking bladder under the raceshirt:

If I don't wear a PFD I prefer the BumBag style Camalbak.. and our PFD's have a pocket in the back to take a Camelbak bladder.

So for DW and open ocean DW is it a PFD 2 or 3?
And what brands do you have and recommend?
Might be a good bulk purchase if a few people want them???
