The newest iteration of the 20L Rucker 4.0 holds 75 pounds.
Great presentation!

Good vid. Thank you.

Thanks
Which go ruck would be best to use for travel ? The back packs I've used in the past don't last long and I would think a pack designed to ruck would be very durable
@@jeffreece4021 GR2 if you like compartments, GR3 if you like wide open space, GR1 if you’re minimalist.
@@Rucking thank you very much
I had a Rucker 25L 3.0 and found that a 30lb plate (short style) did not fit in the smaller plate pocket like you mentioned. I have a friend who had the same experience and we both returned them to GORUCK. Hope they fixed that with the 4.0
Yeah, the 2nd pocket in the 25L 4.0 can fit up to 30# standard plate.
It does fit. I have a 3.0 25L. But it’s tight.
Do the plates of the 20L 4.0 and the 33L long ruck rucker sit in the same spot on your back?
I'm 5'7 165lbs, probably can load max up to 50lbs after I get used to the weight. I see that the GR20L has 1 slot for a 30lb standard plate, if I want to load the last 20, what would work best? Just some small sandbags? Or a 20lb plate strapped down with the D rings? probably add in a pool noodle cut off on the bottom. Primarily using it for rucking, but possibly pushups and trying to not have the backpack slide one way or the other.
The latest iteration of the 20L Rucker can actually accommodate 2 plates. So, you should be good to go with that.
@@Rucking Have you ever tried the Yes4All weights for rucking? Look pretty similar in terms of dimensions. This would be a good for review since it's a lot of money to be saving.
@@wongfit Not a lot to "review." I do often recommend them if someone is looking for the longer plater. If you want the shorter ruck weights, GORUCK is the only option. I do sort-of look at them in this vide: th-cam.com/video/199YujOS7X0/w-d-xo.html
I see you have a virginia flag in the background. I am right outside of Richmond and just ordered my first bag. Are there any groups in the area who ruck together? I looked on facebook hoping I would find some, but no luck. I appreciate all the info!
Check out RVA Ruck Club in FB. Not super active these days, but if anyone is looking to ruck, they might be in there.
Which do you think would work to carry a 45lbs plate and laptop between the office & car in addition to dedicated rucks, occasionally over 45lbs but generally 25-45lbs?
Oof. If you want an all in one for that… probably the long range Rucker. Most versatile. But, I always get nervous with plates and laptops. On slip of the memory and you set the thing down too hard in the wrong direction and pop goes the laptop.
You should try Sandpiper of California next
Just googled them. Thanks.
I have a 40lb plate in the carrier model and have found I need to have about 75lb so now Im looking at the 25L 4.0. My concern is it doesnt have TWO plate carriers, only one. With space for another but the space would have it "free floating", is that correct? What do you reccomend?
No, the 25L 4.0 has space for two plates.
Can you explain your “please don’t show up to your GORUCK Tough with this bag” comment on the Long Range Rucker? Wrong way to get noticed?
It is just too big. If you have a ruck that big, you'll inevitably fill it with stuff... stuff you don't need... stuff that is heavy. So, I say it in jest. If you show up with one, no one will care. But, if you show up with one and you've packed it to be 50#, it will suck for you and for your team.
@@Rucking thanks for clarification!
So I got a 33liter Rucker long range for pretty cheap, I already carry a 45 plate for all my stuff…would it hinder me on going ruck events if I did not overpack?
It would not hinder. As you said, Just don’t overpack.
@@Rucking awesome! I’ve been using a broke ass old bag for a year now. Should be getting that long range 33 today! I’m going to go so hard this afternoon haha.
Love the videos, they’ve been a huge help in my fitness journey, closing in on 100lbs down, and less than 20 away from a normal weight bmi. Thanks!
It’s ridiculous that the padded waist belt doesn’t come standard u have to pay extra for it
If the padded waist belt came "standard" you would still be paying extra for it - nothing is free. But I would also be paying extra for it - and I don't want it. I think that's the point of it being an add-on item. Those who want it can add it, those who don't want it won't add it.
I think it has come with some of the variations over the years.
If I have a 20 lb weight and want to up to 30 will my 2.1 rucker fit a 10 lb weight in the ruck pocket’s excess room with the 20?
I don’t think so, but don’t have one to confirm. If I ever want an extra 10#, I usually just toss it in the bag and don’t worry about securing. If you’re worried about it moving during PT, put it in the mesh zipper area.
Simple answer- go find a 3.0 so you don’t have to deal with the Velcro.
I wouldn’t argue with that.
Are there any 30 lb plates that for the 20l ? The goruck weights plus extra shipping makes it very costly
Sadly, no other companies make the smaller plates. There are a few on Amazon that make the longer/thinner plates. You can usually save a buck or two with those.
Thank you for the video. I’ve been looking at various rucking bags and one thing that confuses me is why the rucking backpacks don’t have a waist belt? From my backpacking days I was always taught that a majority of the pack weight should sit on your hips and not your shoulders. This is more balanced and also prevents fatigue/damage in your shoulder muscles. I’m I missing something with rucking where you prefer to have all the weight on your shoulders? Just trying to understand. Thank you.
GORUCK does offer a waist belt that you can attach via the side molle. Some people use it and other don’t. Personally, I’ve never used it because it never sits in the right spot because the rucks aren’t long enough for my torso. Don’t know if I’ve ever read or heard Jason’s reason for not making it standard. I think it has to do with the less is more design approach.
@@Rucking Thanks. I think the torso length is a really good point. These packs seem to be designed for compactness for exercise and I guess the people who really get into it don’t want waist straps flapping around. Thanks again.
Will the 25L fit a 30lb YES plate?
Yes.
What the ruck is a Rucker?
It is the name of a particular line of GORUCK bags created for rucking: go.ruck.beer/AllTheRuckers
I would not purchase any products from this company. This company has made it impossible to contact them on a human level. The only phone number on their web site is invalid. No one available to answer questions about their products.
They've always been super responsive via their contact page: faq.goruck.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
Thanks but that option has turned out to be a wasted effort.
@@billbaggans1799 sorry to hear that.
