I'm always looking at Camelbaks and drink holders for flat water paddling and down-winders and the other day a came across a beauty and a very good price.

Kathmandu have a sale on right now (maybe it's just Melbourne?) and they have these double drink holders that are normally about $80 for only $32.. The good thing about being able to hold two bottles is that you can have one with a sports drink.. and one with just water so if you want to tip water over your face or head on a hot day to wash away the sweat you can use the water for that.. or slip you camera in one bottle holder hole and drink in the other.. It also has other zip pockets.. I like it.. The quality is very good and it's such a good price.

I don't have a store near me.

DJ, if you're passing by can you pick up another one? I can think of a few different applications it
would come in handy for...one being holding 2 JD cans while playing beach cricket! Nothing worse
than running out when you're fielding!

hi dj. there is a few of that type getting around, but the problem is if you come off in the ocean or get smacked in the surf- the bottles are gone.

even the one i've got that has a bungee loop tie doesn't stop them from disappearing.

they are good for flatwater paddles - different fluids in different bottles

Hilly.. That's a good price.. As far as bladder type drink systems Camelbak's are the best IMO.. I have a few and I like the Bum-Bag style the best.

Laceys.. I know what you mean.. I have another with the bungee loop to hold the bottle in.. These have straps that can be tightened to hold the bottle tight.

Planesailing.. I was expecting that..

Brendon.. Not sure if you're joking or not but I'm happy to pick one up for you.
