Nice and stable lightweight pack.

Reminds me of GoLite, but far better quality material, doesn’t feel like carrying a garbage bag with shoulder strap.
There are plenty of pockets inside, one under the lid, and the other against main body.
Color is not as expected, on the picture it looks solid color, but many small webbings are orange, so be aware.
I can’t tell how long the compression system will survive…maybe that’s why it has only 1 year warranty (most packs in the market has at least life time…what’s up with Black Diamond???)
Outside mesh pocket is not large enough for 1L bottle. I guess this is more adventure race ready high-speed pack, so its not intended for big water bottle to be pushed in there.
Overall I like it.
