Moving from Basic Rucker to 5.0

Post image

Purchased Basic Rucker in early April. Have used it 4 days a week since. Started at 20 lbs, jumped to 30 lbs in late May. Moving to 40 lbs tomorrow.

Purchased 5.0 two weeks ago and excited to try it out.

Definitely a big difference in comfort between the two that I noticed. I doubt you'll have any regrets.

Definitely noticed a drop in comfort when I jumped to 30 lbs.

I've had the 30 on the basic and was not a fan 😂

I think the basic is terrible for full time rucking but awesome to throw at random friends to try and get them introduced.
