We just got word that members of the Vail Ski Patrol are using The Beerbelly as their hydration system of choice while on the mountain. It makes sense, since it lowers the center of gravity, stays snug to the body, doesn’t get hung up on the lift, they don’t have to worry about the dispensing tube freezing like other systems, and fill it with something warm and you stay nice and toasty for the day.

We would love to validate this rumor if possible as well as get any stories from you about “alternative uses”.
