CamelBak Kicker 50oz Kid's Ski Hydration Pack

If you don't blow the water back into the bladder after drinking, it will still freeze in the tube. Good size and my 6 year old says it's comfortable. There is a built in whistle.

I purchased this for myself as a pack for skiing. I was tired of carrying a bulky hydration back during our ski trips. I was almost hesitant in getting this because it seemed like this was for kids. However, with being 5'3, it fits me perfectly and comfortably. Highly recommend not only for kids, but for those with a petite frame.

If you don't fill the pack with gear, you can use this like a youth version of the Zoid and kids can wear it under their coat or over it. Very streamlined in that way.However, the bag is another design that is annoying to fill. I don't know why Camelback went away from the simple design where you could open a flap on the front and easily access the water bladder. With this design, you have to unhook the bag in the storage area, pull it out, fill it, cram it back in and re-hook the loop. It's annoying. Would be tough to teach your "youth" to do this, depending on the age.There is also no shutoff valve on this bite valve. The shutoff is always nice to have for transit between trips when the bladder is full. That way, if anybody sits on the bite valve or gear squishes it during travel, you won't end up with a huge puddle. I know they sell the valve switch separate, but the insulation is not designed to cover that accessory.I do love Camelback products. They last long and the bite valves are the simplest and best out there. Lately, though, they have been making designs that are inconvenient to fill... and since you have to fill it EVERY time you use it, that seems like a feature you would want to simplify.

My four year old wanted desperately to go hiking, but hydration was an issue. He LOVES this bag. Drank the whole thing on our walk.Great value for the money and just the right size.

I was looking for a small hydration pack. This is a good quality backpack, but as a 6' female this looked and felt like a kids hydration pack for me. Has to return it

Great product! Perfect for my daughter who uses for mountain biking.

Kids love it!

Habe den Rucksack für meinen Sohn gekauft. Er ist 10 Jahre alt und der Rucksack ist super für ihn. Würde ich wieder kaufen.
