"The competitor to be feared is one who never bothers about you at all, but goes on making his own business better all the time.”

- Henry Ford

We pride ourselves in innovative technology that guarantees our hydration packs and equipment are lightweight, and adjustable straps allow them to be comfortable to wear for all body types.

Why Use a Hydration Pack When at Festivals or Raves?

When rave and festival season comes around, you do not want to be worrying about your hydration or endurance hampering your ability to have a good time. When on festival grounds, water supply and overheating can quickly become a concern. Our IMS Sport and ICEPLATE® HiVis Hydration Backpack, the ideal festival backpacks, offer a solution in different sizes so that you don't have to concern yourself with stuffing your chest pockets or fanny pack full of bottles of water just for them to become hot and undesirable. Our solution offers a hands-free, on-the-go hydration system along with pocket space and even a phone charging port designed to allow you to maintain your enjoyment while keeping your needs in check.

The convenience of having a sip tube within reach means you're more likely to drink regularly, preventing dehydration and enhancing your overall experience. At the same time, these festival hydration packs regulate your body temperature keeping you cool while you dance and move around. These cumulative benefits make the IMS Sport and ICEPLATE® HiVis Hydration Backpack indispensable parts of any rave or festival attendee's outfit.

TESTIMONIALS

Great for Outdoor Recreational and Work Sites

Been using this product for over a month and living and working outdoors in 110+ degree weather I can take comfort in knowing my core temperature is still in the green and as the ice melts I am able to have chilled water while on breaks. This product has made my work environment more tolerable and is an invaluable item for your safety in high heat environments.

It works

My first ice plate product. I used it to go to outdoor events and also washing my car at night when it is hot outside in the summer. I did get another Helix bite valve instead of the Storm valve that it came with. I also got a hydration tube magnetic clip also from Source Tactical. I did have to take a few tries to figure out where to put the chest strap height wise as I do have muscular pecs and needed a compromise of where the strap isn’t choking my neck , but it’s not squeezing the shoulder straps on my man boobs. It’s a strange feeling because ice plate and bag doesn’t feel Cold to the body, but I know I am not sweating in the heat. So somehow it is working. Only thing is if they also can sell the chest straps separately as an accessory because I think unclipping and clipping them over time might break the clips eventually. I also got it with the classic ventilation pontoons, I didn’t think it felt all that comfortable with it (felt rough) even when wearing a shirt on the body. I’ll save the pontoons for when I get the plate carrier

Perfect Solution for General Aviation

Flying small planes in the summer is essentially voluntarily strapping yourself into a fast moving oven with the added benefit of the sun beating down on you. A/C is usually too heavy or expensive for most small planes and alternatives are very few. The IMS sport is the perfect low profile cooling solution. Even with 98° +80% FL humidity the Ice Plate keeps you comfortable. The contour of the plate makes it comfortable to wear even on long flight and gives me more water than I can reasonably carry in a water bottle. Even in my unusual use case it works perfectly.

IMS Sport combo

Absolutely a mission/performance enhancer. This allows you to rev higher in hot weather and stay cooler without red lining and cooking your core temp.

How Does ICEPLATE® Work?

The unique functionality of our IMS Sport hydration pack is backed by our proprietary ICEPLATE® technology. The ICEPLATE® is an innovative hydration bladder that doubles as a cooling and heating device. Filled with water and frozen for cooling or filled with warm water for heating, it sits against your body, controlling your core temperature, enhancing performance and reducing the risk of heat-related incidents.

You're already carrying water. Why not have that water work for you by keeping your body temperature regulated. The best part is that you get all of this without having to add extra weight to your load. ICEPLATE® combined with IMS Sport or the ICEVEST® HiVis Hydration Backpack creates a competitive advantage where none previously existed.

Staying Hydrated While at Festivals + Raves

You may not correlate festivals and raves with athletic activities or endurance sports, but they are more similar than you would think. At a music festival or rave, you are constantly moving, singing, and dancing, which can seriously dehydrate your body. This is especially true if water bottles are not easily accessible or overpriced. 

The consequences of dehydration are severe, and will undoubtedly ruin your good time. Some common symptoms include bodily fatigue and loss of energy. When hydration isn't prioritized for extended periods of time, these symptoms can lead to more serious conditions like heat exhaustion and heat stroke.

This is why ICEPLATE® HiVis Hydration Backpack and IMS Sport hydration pack are so critical. They provide an easily accessible, continuous source of hydration, ensuring that you don't need to compromise your enjoyment or lose your spot in front of the stage seeking proper hydration. With our hydration packs, you can replenish your body's water levels and regulate your temperature as you party, keeping fatigue at bay and maintaining your endurance.
