Pod carrying pants

[Major Ho]

What other paintball pants out there are capable of carrying pods?
I despise carrying a pack and currently have a pair of Ravens that have two loops for pod carrying. What other pants on the market have such an accessory/option?

I think someone told me one of the Nexed pants have such a thing.

ooh which ones? the day i dont have to carry a pack is the day i stop wearing a pack.


edit

oh they do have them. they 70 bucks tho. bye bye uncomfortable 3+2 pack. i dont even shoot that much anyway.

what kind of paintball do you play? my style involves lots of sliding and jumping and diving and running and general acrobatics and without a pack paint anywhere but my back would be destroyed... woods or speedball....

[Major Ho]

I play mostly speedball/hyperball type stuff.
The two pod holders on my current ravens seem to hang on the pods pretty well. I always slide on my belly like superman.
Maybe once or twice my pods have opened up on my while sliding in. So Im not all that worried about the protection of a pack.

its kind of a good idea, but i KNOW that i slide to much for it, ill stick with my pack

well nexed pro pants have two pod pockets one on each side..... not too much paint, but its available.

[p8ntball1016]

its ok for me. i shoot fast but in short bursts of 5. plus i only shoot if i have a clear shot.

ok you might think is a bit off topic but what about those blackstar usa packs that attatch to ones l;eg or arm or tank? i kinda like the idea, though i've never tried em.

ACtually i think that might be an Evil pack now that i look at the first pic...

The Nexrd pants are really nice. I've played front with a pod in the pants pocket, and it's not realy in the way when you front slide. That and they're nice and light. I like 'em.

yeah i saw your site for the first time the other day ( its great by the way! i watched all the tips in one sitting.) and i saw you wearing those pants, then i watched the skyball vid and saw the guy talking about them at the vendors booth... saw that they had big sizes... (im of a stockier build :D) and decided i should get a pair... and i did... should be here soon.

The new WDP pants hold pods too.

Well I think that about cover the ones I've tried. The Ravens are my favorite, but the Nexed are close. I don't really like the way the pods are on the sides of the leg, they tend to be alittle in the way. I have tryed all the other kinds listed in this thread exept for the evil and the Ravens and Nexed are by far the best.

i would think that they would be a pain, firstly youd have to tighten ur pants majory to hold the load and secondly i would think they would fall out alot easyer when u slide or dive into a bunker

[bryceeden]

I think they work better than a pack. I have never had a problem with sliding with them.

[KornKamp02]

lol, I wear an old pair of jeans so I jsu tstick pods in my pocket.

[Chiller514]

The new WDP Pant has tight pockets for 2 140 ball pods.

I played a tourney, 2 pods on eh back, and one in the right pocket of the pants of my Nexed. I did a LOT of superman slides, never had a problem wih them coming loose, or me diving onto them.
