Swix Camera Pack
Tue, Dec 13, 2011

This belt is more of a specialty belt. My Sony DSC-H50 camera (right) is a little on the large size and doesn't fit into a normal water bottle belt. I need something with a bigger pocket to hold it.

The horizontal water bottle holder is OK, but the huge cargo space makes this water bottle belt a winner for classic skiers or folks who want to carry more gear.

Angled and insulated holster, water bottle, pocket, gel flask and holder, and shock cord to hold loose ends. Is this it? Have I finally found the perfect water bottle belt?

Solda water bottle belt

The next sweet water bottle belt to ingratiate itself was a Solda belt. It looked like a nice holster for the water bottle, and duo pockets on either side. Maybe this will be the one.

Ultimate Directions Access Gel

The first pretty water bottle holder I tried was another Ultimate Directions, the "Access Gel". It seemed to have everything - a water bottle, gel flask and holder, wax pouch, and a nifty way to manage excess belt length.

Ultimate Directions

My original water bottle belt was an Ultimate Directions. But there were water bottle holder sirens on the market promising easier bottle access, built in gel flasks, more ergonomic belts - and they seduced me away from my loyal holder.

Atomic's new Skintec classic ski could have you replacing your nowax fishscale and "Zero" classic racing skis, and maybe your waxable skis as well.

That’s right, take your old wax box full of nasty sticky stuff and just throw it away. After almost ten years of testing, Atomic introduces its Skintec classic ski to the general public.
