This post on is part of the What You Should Know Before Joining Adventure Race Series . Ta objava je del na kakšen vi Should znanje Preden se je pridružil Adventure Race Series. In this post, the guest blogger, V tem položaju, gost blogger, Ee-Van EE-Van , shared with us on the equipment and gadgets we need to prepare. , Delijo z nami na opremo in pripomočke, moramo pripraviti.
Adventure Races can be expensive for some , but that is because the equipment involved equals your life. Avantura Dirke lahko drago za nekaj, toda to je zato, ker vpletene enako opremo vašega življenja. To start with, invest in a set of good UIAA certified harness, abseil device such as the basic Figure 8, two minimum 60cm long slings, lockable or auto-locking carabiners (you usually need a minimum of 2) and a Prussick Cord. Za začetek, vlagajo v določene dobre certificiranega pas UIAA, abseil napravo, kot je osnovni sliki 8, najmanj dve 60cm dolge zanke, zaklene avto ali blokiranja carabiners (ponavadi potrebujejo najmanj 2) in Prussick kabla. It is almost a one off investment, and if you take good care of it, it will last you a long long time. To je skoraj enkratnih naložb, in če ste vzeli dobro poskrbel za to, vam bo trajal dolgo dolgo časa. For Malaysians, these equipments could be purchased at specialty store such as at Nomad Adventure in Summit and Core Zone in SS2. Za Malaysians, bi se ti nakup opreme v posebni trgovina na primer na Nomad Adventure v vrhu in Core pas v SS2. There are other options as well such as some outdoor products shop, but their choices are limited compared to the two I just mentioned. Obstajajo pa tudi druge možnosti, kot so nekateri na prostem shop izdelke, vendar je njihova izbira omejena v primerjavi z obema sem pravkar omenjeno.
Don't forget a set of Ne pozabite niz full fingered gloves polne prsti rokavice suitable for abseiling. primeren za abseiling. I have always used a pair of welding/workman's glove, those that will not cost you RM20 for a pair. Vedno sem se uporabljajo par varilnih / delavec je rokavice, tiste, ki ne bo stalo RM20 za par. They are made from cow hide, but not very refined or branded, so, losing them in a race is not as bad as losing those RM79 leather gloves. Narejeni so iz kravjega skriti, vendar ne zelo rafinirani ali blagovno znamko, tako, jih izgublja v tekmi, ni tako slabo, kot izgublja tiste usnjene rokavice RM79.
As for shoes , leave your expensive sneakers at home, those that are meant to be a fashion accessories and has more features than your old hand phone. Kot je za čevlje, pustite vaše drage superge doma, tiste, ki so mišljeni kot modnih dodatkov in ima več funkcij, kot roko svojega starega telefona. Get yourself a good fitting pair of toe covered shoes (I am saying this as some shoes is the open concept type – al fresco?). Pridobite si dober vgradnjo par toe iz čevljev (sem rekel, da je to nekaj čevljev je odprtega tipa pojem - al fresco?).
I know manufacturer like Brooks does have some decently priced trail shoes which have been proven over the races. Vem, da proizvajalec všeč Brooks ima nekaj dostojno ceno poti so čevlji, ki se je izkazala za več kot dirke. If money is not an issue, there is always the more fancy Če denar ni vprašanje, je vedno bolj fancy Salomon Salomon and Inov8 which are really popular with the seasoned racer, but they come with a price of course. in Inov8, ki so zelo priljubljeni pri začinjene dirkač, vendar pa prihajajo s ceno seveda. I have seen some racers donning their adidas kampung”, those cheap rubber stud canvas top shoes in some races and they fair pretty well in those condition. Videl sem nekaj dirkačev nadene svoje kampung adidas ", tiste poceni gume kobilarni platno top čevlje v nekaterih dirkah in se pošteno precej tudi v teh stanju.
So, if you are afraid that your nice expensive sneaker which you wears out to impress the babes get lost in the mud which your legs will go in or get stuck between the rocks as you river-board down the rapids, better keep them where they are meant to be – in the box. Torej, če se bojiš, da vaš dragi lepo zavezat, ki ste obrabi narediti vtis babes izgubili, v blato, ki bo šel v nogah ali zatakne med kamenje, ko reka vozilu navzdol brzic, bolje obdržati, kjer so jih je mogoče - v polje.

How about the Kaj pa tops Vrhovi and in bottoms dna ? ? My 2 sens is to stick to cycling lycras. Moja 2 sens je, da se držijo kolesarjenja lycras. It is padded and will serve its purpose on those bike rides you might have to make. Je oblazinjen in bo služila svojemu namenu na tiste, kolesarjenje boste morda morali narediti. Some of these rides might be as short as 10 kilometer or as long as 100 kilometer and getting your butt aching while you are still racing would be the last thing you would want. Nekatere od teh vožnja lahko tudi le 10 kilometrov ali tako dolgo, kot 100 km in pridobivanje boli rit, medtem ko so še dirke bo zadnja stvar, ki jo želite. These lycras are also lightweight and dries fast. Lycras Ti so tudi lahki in hitro suši. But if you swore by your shorts or pants, then just make sure you would not get chaffing in between your inner thighs. Toda, če si prisegel, vaš hlače ali hlače, potem pa poskrbite, da boste dobili, ne bi chaffing v vaš notranji med stegna. It would get nasty as the race goes on. Tako bi dobili grdo, kot gre na dirko.
As for top, go for something which is made of quick drying material . Kot je za vrh, gre za nekaj, kar se je hitro sušenje materiala. Anything made from Polyester would serve its purpose. Vse iz Polyester bi služilo svojemu namenu. Most of the light weight sports top would be made from polyester, only differences is their marketing name ie Večina lahki športni vrhu bodo narejeni iz poliestra, samo razlike je njihovo trženje ime, tj Dri-Fit from Nike Dri-Fit od Nike or ali Clima-Cool from Adidas Clima-Cool od Adidas . . Some may argue that not all the material are made equal, but let me tell you, I have been racing with a RM10 polyester top which is a fake of both brands and I have no issue with them. Nekateri trdijo, da morda niso vsi material, ki je enaka, vendar naj vam povem, sem bil z dirke RM10 poliestra vrhu, ki je ponaredek obeh znamk in nimam vprašanje z njimi. Best thing is, if I were to get it torn because it got caught by the many thorns in the jungle, it only cost me RM10 and not RM89!!! Najboljša stvar je, če sem bila za svojo raztrgano, ker vem, ulovljen z veliko trni v džungli, le strošek me RM10 in RM89 ne!
So, just leave those cotton based top or t-shirts at home as it would get really heavy once it's soaked with sweat and water! Torej, pusti tistih, bombaža na vrhu ali na majice doma, saj bi bilo zares težko, ko je to prepojen z znojem in vodo!

One of the more important gear that you should invest in is a hydration pack . Ena od bolj pomembno orodje, da bi morali vlagati v hidracijo, je paket. Camelbak Camelbak are leader when it comes to these. so vodje, ko gre za to. I have seen some unknown brand burst or leak, and when you are in a race, that is the last thing you want it to happen. Videl sem nekaj počil neznano znamko ali pušča, in če ste v dirki, da je zadnja stvar, ki želite, da se zgodi. Water/hydration is important and in most Adventure Races, the organizer would require you to have at least 2 liters of water with you. Voda / hidracijo, je pomembno in v večini Adventure Races, bi organizator boste morali imeti vsaj 2 litrov vode z vami. So, go for the 3 liter hydration bladder that should last you for most of the races. Torej, pojdi za 3 hidracije liter mehurja, da bi bila nazadnje ste v večini dirk.
As for the backpack size, anything bigger than a 20-liter pack is really cumbersome. Kar nahrbtnik velikost, nič večji kot 20-litrski paket je res težavno. Imagine you crawling through the smallest cave crevices and your head got through but not your body because the bag was just too big! Predstavljajte si plazil po najmanjši jamo rež in glavo dobil skozi svoje telo, vendar ne zato, ker je bila vrečka samo prevelik! Or how it would jiggle when you run with the pack like some schoolboy on heat. Ali pa, kako bi bilo Drmusati ko zaženete s pakiranja, kot so nekateri Učenec na toploto. Just make sure the backpack comes with a chest strap for better stabilization and load dispersion. Samo poskrbite, nahrbtnik prihaja z prsih trak za boljšo stabilizacijo in razpršenost obremenitve. As such, I know only Kot tak, vem samo, Deuter Deuter , , Camelbak Camelbak and in North Face North Face when it comes to backpack, but if you can, stick to Camelbak bladder! ko gre za nahrbtnik, toda če lahko, držite mehurja Camelbak! If you are budget conscious, get Če ste proračun zavesti, dobili High Sierra High Sierra if you don't mind the weight of the pack. če vam ne moti težo pakiranja.


Most of the races would provide you with a canoe if there is any need for it, but you need to get your own bike. Večina dirk, bi vam s kanujem, če obstaja potreba za to, ampak, kar potrebujete za svoj kolo. Invest in a Invest in Mountain Bike Mountain Bike that will serve your budget and purpose. , ki bo služil svoj proračun in namena. I have always believed that it is not about the bike, but the rider. Vedno sem verjel, da ne gre za kolo, ampak voznika. Just get one bike which is of reasonable quality and strong build. Priskrbite si ga kolo, ki je primerno kakovost in močno gradijo. And as usual, if budget is not a concern, just go ahead and bust your bonus on one of the nicer looking one; you will only go as fast as your legs allow you to. In kot ponavadi, če proračun ne skrbi, samo nadaljujte ter doprsni vaš bonus na enem od lepše videti en; boš samo šel tako hitro kot noge omogočajo. Furthermore, if you ride a cheaper bike, the thrill is to be able to out-ride the more expensive bike and stick a thumb on your nose as you overtake them ;-) Poleg tega, če ste vožnjo cenejše kolo, vznemirjenje, da se lahko iz-ride dražje kolo in palica palec na nos, ko jih prehiti ;-)

Since biking are usually one of the disciplines in the sports, you will need a proper cycling helmet as well, which will double up as a safety helmet when you does all the technical rope work. Ker kolesarjenje so po navadi ena od disciplin v športu, boste potrebovali ustrezno čelado, pa tudi kolesarjenje, ki bo dvojno gor kot zaščitna čelada, ko pa vsi tehničnega dela vrv. Usually the organizers will tell you what you need in their race entry form. Ponavadi bodo organizatorji povedal, kaj morate v svoji dirki prijavnico.

Also needed usually are at least one Prav tako so potrebni ponavadi vsaj en headlight žaromet , in case there is caving or the organizer sees that the race will last through the night. , V primeru, da je jamarstvo ali organizator vidi, da bo zadnja dirka skozi noč. Over the years, I have tried using the conventional bulb headlights which gives out yellow lights and also the more high-tech energy efficient LED headlights. V letih, sem se potrudil using običajnih žarometov, ki daje žarnica iz rumene luči in tudi bolj visoko energetsko učinkovito tehnologijo LED žarometi. Depending on what the course would be like, yellow lights perform best in very dark places such as caves and white LED lights would gives you less penetration but a wider beam. Odvisno kaj bi seveda bilo podobno, rumene luči najbolje v zelo temnih prostorih, kot so jame in bele LED luči, bi vam manj gostoto, vendar širši pramen. As such, you could bring both type, or invest in one which have both functions and could be switched between. Kot take, bi lahko prinesla oba tipa, ali vlagati v eno, ki imajo obe funkciji, in bi se lahko preklaplja med. Bring extra batteries as the conventional bulbs are energy sapping devices. Prinesite ekstra baterije, kot običajne žarnice so energetsko sapping naprave.
Don't forget to get yourself a waterproof bag. Ne pozabite, da si dobil vodotesno torbo. Summit To Sea has a good range of it and also don't miss out on a passport/map carrier. Vrh želite morje ima dober razpon, in tudi ne zamudite potni list / zemljevid prevoznika. The passport I am talking about here is essentially a piece of paper which will be chopped and signed off by the marshals at every checkpoint as a way of validating that you indeed passed the certain required locations. Potni list Govorim o tem je v bistvu list papirja, ki bo narezanih in ga potrdi šerifov na vsakem checkpoint kot način potrditev, da ste res opravil določene zahtevane lokacije. A cheaper alternative is to get those small or large zip lock bag which cost between RM8 to RM16 for 20-50 bags at the local supermarket. Cenejša možnost je, da dobijo tiste majhne ali velike zaklepanje zip bag, ki stane od RM8 za RM16 za 20-50 vrečke na lokalni supermarket.
Also, it is normal for the organizer to ask you to prepare a set of Prav tako je normalno, da organizator zahteval, da pripravi sklop first aid kit komplet prve pomoči , which usually consist of certain basic items. , Ki so običajno sestavljene iz nekaterih osnovnih elementov. This is on a team basis and each team only needs to carry one set. To je skupina na podlagi in vsaka ekipa potrebuje za izvedbo le en niz. The basic items are triangular bandage, crepe bandage, gauzes, antiseptic ointment/liquid, medical tape and Osnovne postavke so trikotne preveze, preveze krep, gaze, antiseptično mazilo / tekočina, medicinski lepilni trak in Oral Rehydration Salt Oralna rehidracijska sol (ORS). (ORS). Apart from that, each team would need to carry enough bicycle tubes and repair kit as they need to repair it themselves should any equipment failure happens. Razen tega, bi se vsaka ekipa potrebo po izvedbi dovolj koles cevi in popravila kit, kot jih potrebujejo, da to popravimo sami bi morali okvare opreme zgodi.
And as with every equipment you have, someone will tend to come out and give their 2 cents worth about “your equipment are heavy, you will not finish the race” and run your morale down. In kot z vsako opremo, ki ste jo, bo nekdo ponavadi pridejo ven in dajo svoje 2 centa vreden približno "so svojo opremo težka, vam ne bo končal dirko" in prost dostop vaš moralo dol. Don't worry about it, I would tell you. Ne skrbi, bi vam povem. If your equipment weigh 1 kilogram more than his, then you are better off losing 1kg off your body weight and save thousands of Ringgit compared to the other person! Če vaša oprema tehtajo 1 kilogram več kot njegov, potem ste izgubili bolje 1kg off vaše telesne mase in ga shranite na tisoče ringgit v primerjavi z drugo osebo! Just smile and nod in agreement…and make sure you beat them at the finish line! Samo nasmeh in pokimal v dogovoru ... in poskrbite, da boste Premagali jih na ciljni ravnini!

I believe that I have covered the things you need to know about the equipment part, now, let's move on to the next important issue, hydration and food. Mislim, da imam stvari, ki jih morate vedeti o opremi del, zdaj, lets 'premik na naslednjo pomembno vprašanje, hidracijo in hrano.
