Kestrel Flex

[Jimmy Wallhanger]

Just ordered one today in ASAT size 1 with the rope and carabiner bridge. Cost $350 CAD shipped.

Anyone got one?

I have a Kestrel size 2 and I feel it's a bit big but was right on the line as I'm a 36 waist. I heard a podcast with DIY and Boswell saying the size 1 woth the flex should be perfect for the in between sizes.

I'm pumped.

They don’t start shipping till 6/1. So... non staff customers do not have them in hand yet.

I asked Debbie about the sizing as I fluctuate between a 36 and 38 waist during the season. She recommended a size 2 for me.

I ordered the size one, Predator. Ordered the lineman rope and tree tether from Tethrd, less bulky than the Aero Hunter offering.

It will be interesting to see if the flex is more comfortable than the kestrel. I had a size 1 and 2 kestrel... I always liked the size 2 better but needed suspenders to hold it up walking in.
As far as weight... Yes it would be nice to be 180 pounds again but I have been 200 pounds for 20 years and do not see an increase or decrease on the horizon.

I ordered a 12 feet of predator rope with a hand spliced sort eye witch would make the rope 10 feet once spliced for under 50 dollars from Wesspur. The predator rope is on back order but should be in June 18. I using it for a linesman belt.
