Great if its not below 30 Degrees F
Perfect addition to my Camelbak for cold temps, but not freezing temps. Unfortunately once it dropped below 30 Degrees on the mountain the insulation did basically nothing and the tube completely froze. Better than no insulation certainly but perfect it is not. Should have dropped some whiskey in it next time :)

Still gets frozen in cold weather!
I replaced my original reservoir tube with this "thermal control" tube for snowboarding AND IT HASN'T WORKED. Granted, the original tube would freeze faster, the thermal control tube and bite valve still freezes. I've used it for snowboarding the past month at varying temperatures (30 degrees, 20 degrees, and 7 degrees and the tube froze at each temp. Thoroughly not impressed!

Cold weather godsend
I bought the hot weather insulated tube earlier this year thinking it might work, only to have it freeze constantly on ~20F hikes. This tube keeps everything nice and liquid and doesn?t make me think I?m going to destroy a tube

Fine enough insulated hose. However,
Fine enough insulated hose. However, I messed up and bought this when I should have ordered the Mil Spec Crux insulated tube which is longer and has a quick disconnect at the end, and is smaller in diameter which better fits the magnetic tube trap clip on my pack.

Must Upgrade for Skiing
I highly recommend upgrading to this tube if you are a skier/snowboarder. My tube kept freezing and I'd be carrying around extra water that I couldn't drink. The bite valve is a simpler design and does not have the 90degree turn which is why I think this tube works so well in colder weather. I still had to blow water out of the tube with every use and it did freeze on a -9 day but at that temp you cant expect much. A must have if you love exploring cold mountains.

Good Choice for Frequent Skiing
I work as a ski instructor at local ski hill. I've been using the Camelbak Bootlegger pack 4 days a week for a couple of seasons. Occasionally, on really cold days, water may freeze in the bite valve, but haven't had a problem with getting it flowing again. Water has never frozen in insulated tube. Good product!

Better than they gray insulated tube for sure but...
Does a GREAT job of keeping water inside the tube from freezing while skiing this winter. Much better than the gray insulated tube but?water still freezes in the bite valve even under the cover. The cover also forces the bite vale too close to the end of the tube leaving just a small portion of the bite vale to actually be?bitable.
