Back Savers

Is there that much of a difference between the Innova and Phenix back saver straps for your bags?

[Hootie]

I use the Phenix ones and I love them. I've heard other DGers say the Innova ones are made cheaply and dont last as long as the Phenix ones.

I've heard the INNOVA back straps are not durable. Course that was from a heavy disc golfer who was out everyday. For the general user I think it would be OK. I don't know much about the Phenix ones. Personally I use my old ball golf shoulder straps. The padding is twice as thick and seem to hold out pretty well. a couple of $1 clips and it's a whole new bag...

The Innova straps lasted me about 2 months, fabric ripped and clips broke. Innova did give me 2 new discs for the trouble. Quads have been going strong for about 6 months...no sign of wear.

bad quality in INNOVA....big suprise!

i have Phenix straps and they are awesome.

[Blazo]

anyone try the revo straps? obviously phenix are way better than innova

quadshox last a lot longer...definitely worth the extra....we have the shorter version for people who have smaller torsoes called the .8's...lsdiscs.com

[LSDiscs/Lars]

I use a lot of innova stuff and an Innova bag that I love but I've seen many straps come back to us shredded and falling apart...

The quads are way more durable....especially for the every day use

quads are the way to go!

[Vermin]

Phenix is the way to go - You get what you pay for.
