The Flex Pack is a dry bag hauling system, also referred as a 'multipack'. The separation of drybag and harness makes it flexible, reliably waterproof (in contrast to classic back packs) and reasonable (for the time the drybag has worn out, the Flex Pack allows you to exchange just the bag for reasonable costs, rather than being forced into buying an entirely new pack).
Configuration
The Six Moon Flex Pack can be chosen with different (40/50/60l) or your own (without) dry bag. The included bags all feature a compression valve and are made of sturdy but light PU nylon. The removable straps on the bottom of the backpack also allows the use of two elongated packbags (e.g. ISS bags) in the carrying system, which makes the Sixmoon Flex PR an ideal addition to a packraft with ISS system. Next to the bag other equipment can be stored separately, in particular a packraft with paddle, life jacket or helmet. The system offers various expansion options. You will find the Flex Pack capable of carrying heavy gear while storing away compactly and waterproof (including the harness) once back on the water.
The harness of the pack corresponds to that of the Six Moon Fusion 65 and is thus one of the lightest and structurally most stable harness on the market! It is capable of comfortably carrying significantly more weight than any pack of a similar weight. The advanced structure easily transfers weight to hips, even under significant loads.
