Yes, it's exactly 6 lbs more streamlined.... 36 - 30 = 6!

I measured the lift of my Agir single...32#... if I remember correctly. (I don't have my notes with me this morning.)
 
Why is this uch a huge issue? If you don't want the AGIR - don't get one. If you want the halcyon or oxy or whatever, use it. If you have a baised, go with it... I don't understand why the need to discuss this with all the attitude. It's a *******ing wing...

(As for me... my DIR brainwashed hand is going for my pocket... getting a credit card.... going for the Halycon website..... must order... new ... stock...... but wait, my loyalities to my local community.... must have AGIR.... what to do??? AAAAHHHH!!!) :wink:

I know of too many guys having problems with the post recall units that I think I would just change it out to a different inflator...for peace of mind, if nothing else.
Ok, never heard that until now. Now I get it.

Because Halcyon is the best and really makes me angry when people bach them like in this thread! :D

Sorry couldn't help it. I guess it's just like this with everything. People are often biased towards a certain brand for many different reasons and get really defensive if anyone has anything bad to say about that brand.

Myself included to some degree. Yeah I really like the Halcyon wings I have, but some of those other wings look nice too, but I've always used Halcyon, so why try another wing.

Years ago a bought a pair of Nike cross trainers, just fit better than any of the other brands I tried, now when ever it's time for a new pair all I look at is Nike.
 
I know what you mean - sometimes it shocks me to see 4 pags devoted to that point. Oh well, I just keep diving - updating as I need too. :D
 
I want an Agir. No, I want two! And I want three Halcyons! -And even a couple of DIR Zone's and Oxycheq's!

Heck, what does it matter? I dare say these wings are equal when it comes to both quality and user friendliness. There you have it.

AHHH - The devil has come from Hell to convert us!!! I suggest we act immediately.... tourches, tourches!
 
Some of you guys need to read these posts with a lighter heart. :D

No one is "bashing" Halcyon. No one has an "attitude".

I don't have much in the way of brand devotion...well except for some of the little guys like FredT, Tobin, and Sandroff and that's because they're just really cool talented guys that seem to really love what they do.

I personally, use what I consider to be the best from different manufacturers. I'm probably way too picky but I like to think that each product has specific strengths and weaknesses and some products serve some purposes better than others. For instance, for certain circumstances the Pioneer is, IMHO, simply the best. But for a different situation where the extra protection of an outer shell is needed, the Agir excels. So...I pick a product as it fits a very specific set of needs...not simply by the manufacturer.

In fact, just off the top of my head only one manufacturer comes immediately to mind that just plain sucks. Even though some of their products are very nice, dealing with the manufacturer is so problematic that it just isn't worth buying that gear. Can anyone say...OMS! :05:
 
OMS ! :D

Me too! I love it all!

You're probably right, K. I just think that certain products fit certain needs better than other products do.

And that's the way things are. :D
