I totally spaced that last night when my fiance came home from work. I will see if I can remember by the time she gets home tonight. I will make sure I get one from the back and side.

Also on the note of pictures Disc Nation will be taking better pictures of the bag and we will then update the pictures so they all look a bit better than they do now.

Well I know Chris plans on making a video of the production bag I think next week or the week after. I only have a sample so I was avoiding making a video because I do not want to steer people in the wrong direction even though anything changing from sample to production is more internal than anything. If I make a video I will need make sure I say what has changed because I want everyone to know up front.

1. The bottom of the main opening has been extended by 1in in height compared to the sample.
2. The internal frame is going to be stiffer to accommodate the extra weight people might carry in the bag.
3. The production run has extra stitching on the shoulder strap connection.
4. The inside of the bag with match the accent color on the outside.
5. The go get it slot divider will be stiffer in the production model.
6. The back padding has been increased in the production model.
7. The small pockets on the side in front of the bottle holders will have zippers on the production model.

With all of this in mind I can make a video soon. All of these changes are for the positive.

I have been a big fan of my Catalyst bag, so has my wife... So I get the HELIX, and she gets the Catalyst. Makes perfect sense to me.

Thanks to Salient for putting together another fine product. So far, I have had great experiences with your products and after the initial start-up stress, Salient has been one of the better companies I have dealt with for helpful and timely responses.

Sounds fair to me and we appreciate your continued support.

I know the bag is black and blue, but it looks brown in these photos. That is a color combination that needs to be made. It looks great!

I am thinking maybe a grey and blue instead of brown. Never have been a fan of any brown bag.

Then it would REALLY look like a Grip bag.

I'm with tbird. The (perceived) brown and blue actually looks pretty sharp. It would probably hide dirt pretty well, too.

 

[Aim For The Chains]

lighter on the brown, more of a copper look actually would make the blue really pop-- Even a lighter blue too. I like the grey and black as it is. 2nd run multi colored helix!

Scott- Is there a divider inside the main compartment to keep the discs upright if its not completely full?

It doesn't now? Those straps look damn near identical lol. If there was a strap that went across the chest I'd think they just "borrowed" them directly. I'm sure it's a great bag though. I have a grip L and I enjoy it so this should be too.
