I need a camelbak for road racing. I currently use the 'blowfish' which won't fit all my belongings such as a phone or camera, shot blks/gu, enough water for a half-marathon and a layer either outside or inside pack. i use it for all sports so ski pole holders and such would also be appreciated. any suggestions?

Hey Rachel,It won't hold ski poles (unless if you get really creative), but I recommend the Nathan HPL race vests, particularly the HPL #008:http://www.backcountry.com/store/NAT0014/Nathan-HPL-008-Race-Vest.htmlIt has two front pockets which allow for easy access... I generally carry my camera in the left with a GU, and my cellphone in the right pocket. In the pack, it has another bigger pocket for extra gels, a light coat, gloves, etc. If I am racing, I'll drop the camera and cell, and fill the front right pouch with 3 GUs and then unwrap some shot blocks and put them in the left pocket. It holds 50oz of hydration.
