i personally dont like the NXe Elevation Packs. They feel so much heavier than the older packs I used to wear.

Valken and Empires are much lighter.

Have personally had bad experiences with NXe packs with ripping. Happened in the same place on 3 packs. Comfortable and decent ejection.
Good experience with Sly, but the velcro wears out.
Mixed experience with Empire, one worked great, another won't eject pods...
Going with a Dye now, heard only good things.

I just bought one of the 2012 Liquid Breed Empire packs. Talk about not ejecting pods. You really have to tug on the pod to get it out. You could forget to connect the strap, run around and probably not have the pod fall out.

Its brand new though so i imagine after breaking it in they will loosen up.
