💧 Step-by-Step: Installing the Bladder Like a Pro

Step 1: Unclip the Bladder Hose

Detach the hose from the bladder by unclicking the quick-connect fitting at the bottom.

Step 2: Insert the Bladder

Slide the bladder into the hydration compartment and secure it using the Velcro tab at the top to keep it stable.

Step 3: Thread & Reconnect the Hose

Thread the hose through the opening in the shoulder strap and into the hydration compartment. Pull it down until the connector reaches the bottom, then clip it firmly into the bladder. Make sure it clicks and is fully secured!


🛠️ How to Fill Your Hydration Bladder at a Festival Water Station

1. Unzip the Bladder Compartment

This is the hidden hydration slot, unzip it all the way to reveal the mesh pouch inside.

2. Slide Out the Bladder

You’ll notice the bladder is secured with Velcro to keep it from flopping around while you dance. You don’t need to remove it, just slide it out from the top slider and start filling it up.

3. Fill it Up

Use your fest’s water refill station to load it up. 

4. Slide It Back In + Secure

Tuck the bladder back into the mesh pouch and clip it in to make sure it stays locked down while you’re moving. Re-zip the compartment.
