    What pack should I get?

    I'm kind of tight on money, so im looking for the cheapest pack I can get thats still a good pack. What do you guys think I should get?

    I really like the Redz packs, but I dont really want to pay so much just for a belt, so are there any other things you guys think I could use for a redz pack other than the belt that you have to buy seperatlly.

    Thanks..

    Oh, and how good are the BlackStar Action Pack's?

    I have a Redz pack. It's a good pack, I really like it. I have the 3.2 with a medium belt. The belt fits snugly.

    I am looking into getting one of the DYE 3.2 packs. Haven't checked one out yet, beyond looking online, but I do plan to head down to the local shop tomorrow to see if they have any...

        Like I said, I've heard good things about the DYE packs. But I won't buy anything like that without trying it on first. Hope to have a report for ya tomorrow evening...

          One thing about the Dye packs, the lumbar pillow in the back will fall apart. Mine did the very first time I ever used it a year and a half ago. Since then it's fallen apart and been sewn back together so many times it resembles a roadmap. (I never abused it either and it still died an early and expensive death.)

          For the money I'd recommend an Extreme Rage Bullit pack, as they pretty much have a lifetime warranty. Check 'em out...they hold up rather well and are very comfortable.

            Where can I get one?

            All the canadian websites I go to don't seem to have them.

              I would say go with the redz. I have one belt and 3 different packs for what I am playing at the time (a 5+1, a 2+1 and a 4+3). It is much cheaper than 3 complete belts in the long run.

                redz dimension packs, best out there in my opinion. Had a DYE, wasn't bad but the belt is very short on them and if you wanything over a 34" waist you may have problems with it (my came undone on me twice in a tourney, I was about ready to toss the thing right there, bought my redz and never looked back).

                  I recently got a redz dimension setup and love it, but I also have a redz pack that comes as one piece- belt and pak together.. not sure what the name is, but it was cheap and holds 4 pods. Good redz quality.

                    I just got a Extreme Rage 4+1 versa paq. It is very snug, it has a 4" belt that is velcro all the way accross. The nice thing that I like about it is that the tank pouch will unzip and you can remove it and zip it back up to just have 4 vert paq. I don't know if you are wanting a larger pack, but that was the one that worked best for me. Check them out.

                      You should check out the M-Pack from TOPSTITCH. Mine fit better than the reds. I got the 3.2 for $40.00.

                        I'm going to have to agree with the ER Bullit Paq. I have both the ER and a Redz Dimension but the Extreme Rage is my new favorite. The straps are easier to find and pull, and the 'extra loops' have a loop on them that you can place around the notch on a pod lid, giving it a little extra protection from falling out. Both packs are well made and comfortable though, I'd suggest trying both on and seeing what one you like better.

                              This is what I've been talking about... great pack for the money.
                              I really like redz quality.
