    Mmmmmmmmm, more colors!
    (agree)1 here that there is fear over not getting the best combination either because of it selling out or not being able to afford duplicates and a new combo being way better than what I chose. I've tried to just go with my best guess, but on occasion, it has backfired when I waited too long to pounce.

    I want to hear about this project that's coming. But until I've got enough saved up for my bag (still doing a loop de loop of WF/TS, can't decide!) I can wait. Maybe somewhat impatiently.

    LOL! Don't tell us that! We are waiting...some just more patiently than others!

    I know! I hear you! And there's only *more* new colors that will debut soon. I can venture guesses for you guys, but you might be pretty disappointed if they turn out not to be accurate, so maybe it's best we just wait and see, as hard as that is. :/

    Darcy, we need answers! LOL!!!! I think everybody is all pumped about the new wasabi dyneema and now we all want to know what else is coming! We are all hovering over that place order button afraid that as soon as we click on it, a better color is going to come out. At the same time, we are also all fearful that if we don't order whatever color combo now and wait for the new ones, then the old one will be sold out if we don't like the new ones. I know those are my greatest fears every time I order something! If money were no object, I would just order whatever colors I thought I might like and then order the same bag if a different color I liked better came out. It is a never ending catch 22!

    At the risk of sounding like a Magic 8 Ball: Cannot predict now

    I don't think we previously made the Western Flyer in Forest/Ultraviolet.

    Your Yosemite photos are awesome, btw!

    I should have listened to you and went with the WF! I'd get the WF in a heartbeat if it came in Forest/UV!

    I just got back from one week in Yellowstone with my new Tri-Star, but I think it is a bit big for me (or I am not strong enough for it!). At 17 pounds, I was able to comfortably carry it around for short distances, and it wasn't even fully packed, but I think I need to downsize to either a Smart Alec or WF. Of course, the TS comes in Forest/UV, but not the WF right now......

    We love color, and we love playing around with different colors, but it's often a spontaneous process, so predictions about which colors will be available and when might prove not to be accurate. So, in short: we're not sure. It'll be fun to find out!

    I have another question about colors : I see that the Steel Dyneema Synapse is finally available with an interior other than Solar (obviously, now). Will it ever be available with Steel Dyneema exterior and Ultraviolet Dyneema interior? What about the Ultraviolet Dyneema exterior coming back?

    Hurray! The penny-saving shall commence! (and FWIW, consider this my vote for the Navy/Iberian combo )

    Yes and yes: haven't yet determined lining colors.
