equipment
Some people say that the equipment is not omnipotent, but for the ALICE who walks often, some equipment will play a key role in your crucial moment. The backpack is the most important thing when new ALICEs choose from dazzling equipment. LG Jia Bing, with her many years of experience as a backpacker, offered some suggestions for new alumni in backpack selection.
Try a backpack like a shoe
Jia Bing said that before choosing a package, there should be a general intention for the journey, the function, basic style and size of the backpack. The best backpack is worn on the body instead of back. If you are just hiking for a day, you can do whatever you like. But for those who have a certain challenge and free travel, a good backpack can even decide the quality of the journey.
Most of the early backpacks were H-frames, and they had to rely on generous shoulder straps to sort the pressure. Jia Bing said that he was the earliest of these H-type backpacks. It looked very long, and the skeleton was easy to shake. If there were violent activities, such as crossing the jungle, rock climbing, climbing or upstream, this need to jump, Long-distance walking makes it difficult for the body to maintain balance.
Later backpacks are much better. Now common bag, carrying system is mainly composed of inner frame, shoulder strap, belt, and chest strap. A good bag can change the shoulder strap and belt according to your body shape. Because men and women have different body types, a lot of manufacturers have designed some backpacks for girls. The carrying system of these bags is specially made according to the physical characteristics of women. Jia Bing thinks that like backpacks and shoes, it is necessary to go to the store to test, so that you can know what kind of package your body deconstructs and adapt to. It does not have to be an expensive, big bag, and comfort is the most important. So she does not advise newbies to listen to other people's opinions on the Internet.
Good backpack to adjust weight distribution
Jia Bing chose the backpack to ensure that the belt was just on the pelvis. In the position of the hip, the weight of the backpack is most effectively carried by the bones, not the muscles. Because women's upper body is weaker than men, they must put heavy items on the bag in close proximity to the lower back.
The backpack model is also generally determined by the body. If the waistline is less than 68cm, select the special trumpet; if the waistline is 68-78cm, select the trumpet; if the waistline is 78-92cm, select the number; if your waistline is 92-106cm, select the large size; if You have a waist circumference of 106cm or more and choose a king size. As for the shoulder strap, there will be no gap between the adjustment and the shoulder blades. Jia Bing himself is using a medium number.
A good backpack can arbitrarily adjust the weight distribution on the shoulders, and can be adjusted at any time according to physical strength and environment. Good carrying system adjustment is appropriate, most of the weight can be transferred to the ankle and buttocks, rather than the general package like the shoulder of great pressure, only shared by the wide shoulder straps. Jia Bing has conducted tests and carried two backpacks to take the same distance when climbing a mountain. Compared with general backpacks, there are belts, chest straps, and shoulder belts that carry the system. The weight is transferred by at least more than half, and the shoulders are easily relaxed. It is also more flexible.
The filling material between the inner frame and the body can be made of soft material, mesh type, and can absorb sweat. Jia Bing's bags for long-distance hiking have removable backpack covers. After the camp is built, something else can be on the car or in the camp. The backpack is a small bag. With a small camera inside, it's very convenient to spot around the camp. Nowadays, the knapsack has evolved very well. According to individual travel habits, many different functions are categorized. Newcomers do not have to choose the kind of package that covers multiple functions from the beginning, and choose one that has basic functions. With the rich experience of walking, they will Know what kind of needs you have in this area and adjust it.
Unreasonably uncomfortable to use
The backpack's filling also needs to be designed. If you're walking the same weight, it's easier to feel tired than your peers. It may be because the filling method is not suitable and the back is uncomfortable and involved. In general, the back rack bag requires the body to tilt forward. It is inevitable that the inner frame will be worn for a long time. A good filling method can help alleviate this problem. For how to place fillings, it is advisable to look for senior tourism around you to make design arrangements according to specific conditions.
Generally heavy things should be placed close to the top and close to the back, such as cooking utensils, lamps, etc., so that the heart will be high and walking, the waist is easy to straighten when walking. Things that do not need to be frequently used, such as clothes and sleeping bags, can be placed at the bottom. Things that need to be frequently taken are placed in side pockets, such as rain jackets, maps, compasses and the like. There are kinds of bags that can be filled not only from the top, but also from the inside of the front pocket and the bag itself. If you need to take things from the bottom of the bag after loading the bag, you can pull the zipper from the front pocket to take it, instead of turning it one by one from the top. This kind of bag is convenient for picking up and down, and more consideration is given to how to feel comfortable when filling.
In short, the choice of travel backpack must be picky, inappropriate and uncomfortable do not make do. The backpack will accompany you through the entire journey. If you are uncomfortable, it will affect the walking quality and mood. Therefore, it is necessary to try more and see more experiences.
