Thanks for the kind words. It will be a pretty big step up. We did try and address all the concerns with the first run. I think everyone will be happy with the changes.

I had been asking about the current bags, and got some interesting answers, especially based on the bag that we see in the helix demo video.
There's a new version of the Catalyst coming out in October, and it won't be preorder. It looks like most of the double stiching decisions which we've seen on the helix have carried over to the Catalyst, though they're also moving from the top plastic carrying handle to a handle merged with the back straps.
I've had other packs like this, and it's not a terrible thing.
They're also going to rails on the bottom like the helix, and they're apparently redesigning the upper storage and mini space. So they've responded to a lot of the complaints I've seen on youtube and in here.
Also, Scott and Hilary have both been incredibly great about responding to my questions, so I'm very much looking forward to investing in a bag come October.
First post on the site, btw, but I've been enjoying reading all of the posts and picking up details. You've got a good community here.
Man that is awesome news! Cannot wait to see some pics of those especially the small starter backpack. What disc capacity are we gonna see for the small backpack?
Not to mention we will release our smallest starter backpack bag in the fall for less than $80 so we will have a small, medium and large bag to choose from
The small backpack sounds like something I may be interested in.. Am I correct to assume it will be the same new manufacturer?
The small bag sounds really promising. I know I have had struggles with the "old" company in the past, but I think you all are doing a fine job at getting it turned around into the right direction. I am happy to see you have taken a lot of what consumers were saying and putting it all into your entire new bag line up. Kudos to getting the company turned around and heading in the right direction now. I will more than likely give this company another try once more details come out for the small backpack and after the release of the New Catalyst.
Anyone want to see the proto for the small bag we've been testing since May?

Uhh, YEAH!
uhhhhh, yeah!
Small bag is interesting.
This may work better for my wife than the catalyst that she has now.
I don't know about the storage areas though.
I was very disappointed that the catalyst didn't have the upper storage area like you said it would.
But the small bag doesn't look like it would be any better in that dept.
But she doesn't carry that many discs.
Thanks
I know Scott and I appreciate it as well as Hillary.
We are excited to offer some affordable and quality products as hopefully everyone can see from the materials/workmanship out new bags will feature.
For those wondering about the new manufacturers work check out the Helix video review and the bag itself on a course near you.

The replacement catalyst has a new top storage so that issue has been dealt with and fixed based off of the space available in the bag.
A small bag is not made to have all the storage a larger bag does. The side pockets have plenty of storage and can fit discs, towels or even a hoodie if you don't use the bottle holder. The small bag is for those players that don't want to invest in quad shocks as well as a bag made with 400d or less material and end up paying $70-$80 in the long run. We don't expect for everyone to like the set up but in terms of having a bag that fits a need and fills out our lineup the bag does that exceedingly well.
Well wishes, back to work for me.
Scott can update everyone on features, colors, etc.
