By far the best explanation about load management I’ve ever seen and trust me, I’ve watched many. Very nicely done.
Great to hear!
I think heavy deadlifts is a trekkers best friend, it hits everything a trekker needs
Hugely informative. Not a second of the video wasted. Well worth the watch. Thank you. 👍
Nathans videos are always great.
Great, simple, comprehensive video.
Man, you should do all the SO videos. Your presentation style is excellent.
Very impressive. Great to see an example monster weight to illustrate the key points.
great video. knew about all these things with my first gen revolution but hearing Nathan reaffirm that im using it correctly to its full and ideal capacity is amazing. thanks!
EGYAZN I’m the same as you, 1st gen Revo. still going, I use it year around 4 to 8 times a month. Got some wear at the top posts. Had to add rub pads to stop the chafing. I only load it to about 45 lbs. but it’s still going strong. No sign of the stitching coming apart anywhere.
Nathan was texting me on how to get a good fitment going. Great customer service. 👍🏼👍🏼💪🏼
Fantastic video! Thanks!
Thanks for doing this! I just picked up a lightly used Lanner 5400 and couldn’t be happier with the pack. These tips will hopefully be put to work next weekend during archery opener!
Good luck and glad to hear.
Very helpful thanks

You bet!
Great video. I would love to see one for the flight series packs...
Noted!
Great tutorial👍
Thank you 👍
Good information
Thanks
As a dietician and avid long-distance hiker, one piece of advice I can give you in regard to hiking longer distances and helping a waist belt equipped rucksack fit better is the reduction of your waistline... Right now at your current weight when this video was uploaded two years ago in 2020, it doesn't look like you have much of a choice as to where that waist belt is placed... Additionally, losing 10kg from your abdomen area feels even better for your knees and feet than dropping 10kg from your rucksack. It will also prolong your life (and your joints) into old age...
I have a question, I see this video was put out 3 years ago, but I'll ask in the event someone can answer.
I often carry heavy loads, and I'm going to purchase an external frame pack to help me with this.
I also carry a load in the front of me: my tent, sleeping mat, and tarp all in a dry bag. I attach it to the shoulder straps. This seems to help balance the load from front to back. I don't see anyone else doing or teaching this. For one thing, I can't fit those items in my 65L internal framed pack when I'm carrying 15+ days of food: any tips or thoughts on this load configuration?
Useful info, I'll watch this again sometime. I have 4 frame packs & always looking to expand the possibilities.
Those straps must be a lot stronger than they look, I wouldn't take them seriously if I didn't see them demonstrated.
At 17:00 , shrugging on the load, would you use a tree or something for support when available?
I'm off to order sandbags, lol
At 15:20 you fast forward through the part where you attach all the straps.. is there a place to see what is involved with that part? Do we gotta thread a strap through a slot forwards and back and cinch it down after? Or is it some kind of quicker hook? Close up pics would be nice
Our packs use a gatekeeper strap, so its super easy to connect to the loops all over the frame and bags!
I'm 2 years late... I've been packing out elk amd noticed I have to lean WAY forward for relief with my external frame pack but my internal frame back with the same weight.. perfectly comfortably. Perfectly stable.I think my frame pack.. the shelf is too low on the pack. And or I'm packing it too low and out( away from my body) on the shelf. I'm going to play with loads and see if it's the case. Ie strap more weight higher on the pack so the shelf won't be basically at a 90 degree and make it alot sharper with the weight higher up.
Nice intro! Did not expect that to be 100lbs!
Thanks!
Typically, when I carry a heavy load, when breaking camp the pack is so heavy I can't lift it to get it on my back so I end up placing it against a tree, sitting down, strapping it on in the sitting position, and then standing up with the pack already on. I hate that. It gets scary because the thought always goes through my mind that I may have to ditch some gear
That's definitely the easy way. If I can find a rock or log or get the pack uphill it helps, but I normally get into the shoulder harness, roll to my knees, and then stand up.
👍
We use kg.
I'm concerned how the integrated framed bags with internal load shelf will handle 100lb loads without ripping the bag fabric. What is the max capacity of the internal load shelf? How is it sewed or secured to the bag fabric? If the load is about 100lbs, would it tear the bag fabric?
No need to worry on the internal load shelf, we have many employyes and customers who have packed 100+ lbs out with it on multiple occasions. The load shelf is sewn together with extremely strong loops and attaches via gatekeepers to the inside of the backpack to those extremely strong loops. For any other questions shoot us an email to info@seekoutside.com
How does adding 4" extensions to a 26" frame equal a 28" frame? You said it a couple times.
Wouldn't it be a 30" frame?
Hi, The frame is a 24 inch frame, we offer 2 and 4 inch extensions to help with different weight loads as well as torso heights
@@seekoutsidegear Ok , I must have bad listening skills! 😂. Looking into your packs hard lately.
What backpack frame is this?
This is our revolution pack frame system!
