[RobS]

I've been looking into uprgading from my fade tourney to a backpack style and I came across the new Hyzerbomb Flak-X. Does anyone have any info on this? It looks pretty friggin' sweet!

I haven't gotten to try the newer model, but I reviewed the original Flak here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmQJ5tWG8FM

I like how there are straps behind the main flap to secure a jacket/sweatshirt. Looks like a cool bag.

Any news on a release date?

Looking like next month? This could be the one that destroys my hate of backpacks.

Yeah I got to see a proto Flak-x and talked to Matt some about it. I am really excited for the bag. I've always been looking for something right between a golf mahal and grip bag. This might finally be it.

So I got word they're shipping week of April 6th!!

They posted a bunch of boxes for their shipment that they got in today. The Flak-x should be shipping here really soon.

They are here! Just picked my black and digital camo up. Might do an in the bag video/cover the features of the bag at the same time this week. Packed with 25 right now, 6 putters, 6 mids, 13 drivers without using either side pocket for discs. Still lots of room left.

That looks great. I have Orange on preorder so I hope it looks a nice as that one.

This bag looks sweet - I really like the setup and the ability to pull disc from the top.

Can you fit putters in the zippered pockets at the top, similar to the Grip? That's one of the functions that keeps bringing me back to the Grip bag.

looks awesome. this will be my new bag asap

 

[PMantle]

I need you people to compare this to the Rebel so I can be done with it all.

 

[xderek182]

Mine should be here today. I'll see if I can get some pictures of mine up so people can see the orange/grey.

Does anyone know how well the bag sits when it is open? Primarily, I'm interested in the stability of the bag when it is on a pitch. Thanks in advance for entertaining my question.

 

[ljs48069]

when I say pitch I am addressing courses that have hills - big and small

played 3 or 4 rounds with it so far. I haven't had it fall over on me yet putting on all types of terrain. Unlike the Grip it does not have rails on the bottom but small rubber feet that are flush so there is not rocking when you put it down. Sits very stable.

yes you can fit putters in the top just like a grip. It even retracts up like the quiver pocket so you can get easier access. Out of the box it isn't wide enough to fit 2 putters wide while sticking out of the bag and grab them easily but i haven't tried stretching it. Right now, i am keeping my 2 panzers in the top, without the pocket raised so I can grab whichever one i need. I keep my putters in the side pocket for easy access.
