Abstract: The invention relates to a load carrying system (1) to carry a load on the back of a human user, wherein the load carrying system (1) comprises a load carrier (10) for the load, two shoulder straps (17) connected with the load carrier (10) that go over the shoulders of the human user, a belt (3) to be secured around the abdomen just above the hips of the human user, and one elongated support (60) that connects the load support (10) with the belt (3), wherein the elongated support (60) has a width that is smaller than the width of the load support (10) and projects freely downwards from the load support (10) to form the sole weight transferring connection between the load support (10) and the belt (3) behind the back of the human user, wherein the elongated support (60) comprises a first bending section that allows displacement of the load support (10) with respect to the belt (3).
