Hi,I have just bought a Northface Hammerhead and for some reason when biting on the bite valve no water is being released. Does anyone have any idea why this might be, or can tell that I am missing something obvious. Thanks very very much.
My the north face bite valve never worked either.
you have to suck on it. i know that how i worded that it sounds perverted, but that not how it was intended.
Some valves are finicky as to where you bite them. Also, sometimes blowing a small puff of air into the bladder will help the water flow faster. If you can't stand the valve you have, you can buy a replacement valve from another brand and stick it on there. My favorites are the MSR and Nalgene/Jansport valves, but Camelbak isn't bad either.
