The gourd is super light, pretty, very handy to take when played sports with his quick opening and closing. Desired to hang, may be added to a carabiner. I also have a sigg which is great, but it takes the cork screw and unscrew is not practical because it is longer. Otherwise the Sigg is a sort of "pacifier" for sport, but I was very disappointed because when you drink it is very noisy (noise from the air). With this, the neck is wide enough and you can drink beside others discreetly, quietly and quickly. Also I find the ideal capacity, not too big or too small and there is no risk of losing the cap is secured to the bottle (it just removes easily to fill it through an opening wide when well) . It is really perfect ... phew! I finally found !!!
