pringles 0 #1 June 17, 2004 Well lets hear it. I have seen a couple of posts where people say they have one or like it. There isn't any info up on BR's site yet though. Does anyone have pics or know some of the improvements? Matt Davies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflysoul 0 #2 June 17, 2004 Excellent rigs!!! I own a Vertex 2 and I'm very happy with it! Open corners, improved pins protections and riser covers protection. Later, I'll try to post some pics... A great BR product! I have seen the Prism 2 only on a pic, but it seems to have the same improvements... 3,2,1,C-YA!!! V.

wzettler 0 #3 June 17, 2004 I'll email you the flyer I got from BR. Its pretty basic but has a couple of pics. (I'd attach it to this post but its too big... I guess that will have to hold you over til freeflysoul can post some pics. edited to say: email sent I think when Jesus said "love your enemy" he probably meant don't kill them.

baseclimb 0 #4 June 17, 2004 Dude, Received my Vertex2 this week. First impresions ain't cool. Might be just me, but I can tell you with 100% certainty, if I saw it before hand and felt it on my back, I will never buy it again. Unlike my Perigee Pro. I will buy it again ( and maybe should have...) At this stage of the race, I expected more from 'new' generation rigs. What do I like (Rig only, short of bridle): 1. Open corners. I don't wingsuit yet, but it is a nice to have. 2. It is longer, hence a 'flatter pack job'. This was my primary reason to get it instead of the Gargoyle. 3. I'ts black. What don't I like: 1. Main concern is the PC location. When I reach for it, I first feel the corner of the rig. "So Dude, where is your PC? .... Just around the corner Mate." I might just get use to it, but for now, I am NOT use to it. 2. It fits and sits horrible. Realy crap compared to PP. Because it is a flatter pack job, I expected to be flatter on my back, by no such luck. It's kinda pointy just behind my shoulders. 3. When the rig is closed, it has all this wrinkles on it. I would really have thought it to be standard to have a smooth rig by now, esp generation '2'. You cant compare this with BombProof Dude. It is just 100% smooth. I might change my opinion in a while, but till then, you know where to find the PC...... just around the corner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflysoul 0 #5 June 18, 2004 Well... I've jumped my Vertex2 stowed and I haven't noticed any troubles in finding my PC... I feel it very well on my back, maybe thanks to the hip rings... However, it's my personal opinion... Anyone has other feedbacks? Here you some pics (sorry 4 the bad quality...) 3,2,1,C-YA!!! V.
