What Does 'Shake It Down' Mean?

Brainrot Score: 5.1OBSERVED
[ SLANG ][ ONEBAG / ULTRALIGHT INTERNET ][ DEGEN ECONOMY ]

The act of going back through an already-packed bag to remove anything unnecessary, continuing to cut weight even after the initial packing list is done.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"Went through and shook it down one more time the night before, found another half pound to cut."

LORE & ORIGIN

Ultralight backpacking vocabulary for the ongoing weight-cutting process, distinct from the community pack shakedown ritual since it can be a solo, repeated habit.
