Innovation from Ventapak to make backpacks more comfortable

from Techstination · host Fred Fishkin

Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear. I’m Fred Fishkin. Ventapak is the name of a clever gadget …a curved mesh brace….that is designed to make just about any backpack more comfortable. It is a big help…providing air flow between your back and the pack….and can even assist with better weight distribution. Founder Mark Dingle says, like so many inventions… it was born out of his own need when he was biking to work in New York City… “I really just loved riding my bike and it was just a great experience. The only thing that was a major detractor was how hot and sweaty my back felt as I was riding, then getting to work and having just a wet, really soaking we shirt.” He started tinkering around and as a result we have the Ventapak. You can find it on Amazon for about 46 dollars…and learn more at www.ventapak.com. You can find us at Techstination.com. I’m Fred Fishkin.
