Yet another cag question
caz:
i don't see why not if you make sure to look after it right.
Eoghan:
ye i got the helix n granted ive only used it and club cags so i dont have much to compare it to but i think its great!im not sure at the moment though if its 100% dry when i get out!im thinking its letting in at my left elbow!but 140 (or something) for a dry cag you cant go too far wrong
Sara:
kokatat all the way, just dont let a nurse with a shears anywhere near it, mine was totally waterproof and great untill she got at it (and that was after 18months of every weekend use)

I've had my present sidewunder for about 3-4 years. It is still good. When I got it first it started to delaminate under the armpits. Returned it and got a new one which has had very little problems except it is beginning to leak after three years of wear including two alps trips.
Any cag can last if you take care of it. I always use a silicon spray for my seals when I first get it then I make sure to reapply that at tleast once a year. I always rinse my gear in water and steep it in milton for half an hour to clean it then rinse again. I still have my first cag and beyond some tape coming off it is still servicable.
Dave B:
I've used both the kokatat and the sidewinder.... I found the kokatat a little more comfortable but the sidewinder is definitely warmer and more durable.... To be honest they're both very similar, both very good and there's not that much difference, I'd go for the sidewinder because it's cheaper..
ps. the cheaper kokatat wouldn't be as good as these two, but still cheaper again... any cag will last if you look after it properly.
