New Seb Flute Backpack out soon?

[ugley_matt]

Does anyone have any details about the new SF backpack thats supposed to be coming out soon. I have been waiting for a replacment for a faulty one and was told that stocks are low as a new model is coming out. Just wanted to know whether the newer one is better.

You mean this one listed under new products on the SF website?

From that picture it looks like they have changed the design and the limbs and riser no longer slot into it. Suspect it now opens up like a standard case.

I saw a couple of the older design last week at KG - in red - awsome! A couple of our lads have now gone over to them for the simple fact that there can be a lot to carry from the car to the line..kit bag, tent, chair, scope, tripod, picnic, kitchen sink.....they do seem to free up a hand, and relieve you of those involuntarily stretched arms on a long walk!

Wouldn't you think they'd have used SF riser and Limbs in the picture?

I have the original type, it's a great bag but a Helik is a tight fit in the slots

Why, SF stuff is all produced by W&W and presumably they stumped up for the publicity pictures for the backpack and, quite reasonably, thought they might as well get their moneys worth.
