crazy 0 #3 October 30, 2002 not specially new models but mainly new sizes. I don't know the detail but the one i ordered is a bit more narrow and a bit longer, with a smaller main container. Basically a better fit for taller people and more radical differences between the size of the main and the size the reserve. -- Come Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deuce 1 #8 October 30, 2002 Yeah, I JUST BOUGHT a new harness/container too. It's sitting in Florida waiting on PD to finish my Main. I'm wondering just how different the new container is going to be..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scoby 0 #9 October 30, 2002 Oh, I just realised that my post might imply that I had knowledge of a new container design coming. What I meant was that I bought a used container because I new I'd be using the beer rig as a transition to something a bit more permanent, so I didn't want spend the $$ on a brand new container until the second one. The fact that they're upgrading the design makes me feel better about my choice. I wouldn't worry about it much, though. Obviously, the Wings is good enough that you bought a second one. So you'll have a great rig to jump while I'm saving my pennies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
