Stone Glacier and Kifaru

[todd kelly]

Good video. What is the weight and cu-in difference between these two packs?

 

[fillthefreezer]

what contour frame did you get matt? and how were you able to decide?

 

[trophyhill]

nicely done. cant wait to see more. thanks for taking the time to do this!

 

[Darren Best]

Any chance for subtitles?

 

[Gman]

Matt - in those first full shots of the packs, do you have the snow collar extended on the T1?

You beat me to it. Then T1 looks very tall.

Thanks for the review BB. It helped me on deciding what pack I ordered.

Standard stays. Aron decided for me after talking over my build. Part of the Kifaru customer experience.

I will try to enunciate better next time.

It isn't even fully extended in the video. It gets pretty tall with the snow collar fully extended.

It wont help any, I am deaf.

It wont help any, I am deaf.

Sorry brother, I will have to look into it!

 

[Darren Best]

No biggy.

thanks for doing this these are the 2 packs iam going back & forth between,i have a close to 10year old longhunter rendezvou i want to replace.my kifaru has been great to me but have never liked my shoulder staps seem to narrow for me.would love to see the 2 frams side by side & think the comparison would be better with the high camp bag more apples to apples thing.thanks to kifaru & stone mtn for making this happen too.

 

[Matt Cashell]

I will do my best bigfish. I plan a frame comparison video tomorrow.

Today, I tested out the Grab It with my daughter:

The Grab It is just plain cool.

Matt , it looked to me that the Bikini frame was stiffer and the bag didn't roll as much. What is the feel to you on torsional stiffness ?

 

[Matt Cashell]

Dave,

the Bikini is totally rigid torsionally. I mentioned in another thread I can get a small amount of vertical movement at the stay rivets, but the thing is solid. The Krux is definitely more torsionally flexible. Video to come tomorrow.

 

[Shrek]

Thanks Matt , looks like your little girl was having a blast being carried around by daddy !
