Smaller, cheaper and lighter than any made. if you're gonna hike in Europe add padding to the shoulder straps or get a different stash bag.

Ive put over 500 jumps on my standard asylum one, I had to put one patch on it, but still is waterproof/resisent and holidng up great. Or get some ripstop and make your own

Make one Jew boy Tongue

Freakboy66 out of AZ makes some
good cheap ones, $50 with shipping
and paypal fee included, adjustable
straps which is good for antennas.

He also makes some nicer ones with
padded shoulders and compression
string for a pinch more but I don't
like the extra bulk for slider-off.

Too complicated of a stitch, i stop at buttons. Ill take a look at all these places, i dont think the bosy bag one would work too well for my needs. The water proof bag would bw nice

...and on that note; anyone know where to find a big, but packlight and preferably somewhat waterproof stash bag for long hikes?

I´ve had the asylum standard and now the one from flyyourbody.com, but that one is a little bit too small for a big wingsuit and all the other stuff. Other than that its a good stash bag, and the roll top makes it pretty water proof. Not too bad to carry either.

Planning a tower jump in Moab, so I contacted MBA. One question was the packs/bags needed to make the climb and jump off Castleton.

Speaking with MR at MBA he uses a system like found on the link below to carry BASE and climbing gear. I will see how it works 1st hand in March.

I have used similar bags when hiking and can see this bag working in wet climates or where you need durability.

I might have misunderstood MR. These bags look a little small. Might just be used for the climbing gear. However, something along this line may be an alternative to a good stash bag.

No that's what Mario uses. They work great for carrying as haul bags on a wall but are a little too bulky for everyday stash bag use.

my fly your body stash bag is really durable and waterproof. Wider shoulder straps for comfort and roll top for varied gear sizes.
I also love the two custom bags I have from V-Line climbing

Re: [dewet] Whats your favorite stash bag?
Stash bag depends from type of the jump (exit).

For illegal jumps you need small, thin and black. For mountains you need stash with extra size.

However 2 things that quite important:
1. Handle/grip on the top of stash
2. Straps
