While I was perusing the new Arc’teryx LEAF lineup yesterday with the Über SOF team I was tossed a can of Kill Cliff. I said, “Cool, I love this stuff. Too bad you can’t buy it anywhere around here. Did Baker stop by?” The reply surprised me. I was told that I’d be able to get it from GSS Gear here in the Tidewater and when I am in Fayetteville, I’d be able to get it from Grey Group. And, this is really awesome, that Über Group is now representing Kill Cliff in the tactical community. In fact, they are looking at bringing it to more and more locations.
Kill Cliff was developed by a former Navy SEAL as a post workout recovery drink that is low calorie, is anti-inflammatory to aid in recovery and tastes great. It’s become very popular in fitness and shooting circles.
To get Kill Cliff at your range or shop contact ubergroup.net.
The Duffle Bag Back Pack Project on indiegogo has caught our eye. The idea is to repurpose,” old Military Duffel bags into new, Every Day Carry book bags. They are using indiegogo to crowd source their startup costs and are trying to raise $750 to get started. This will be used to purchase enough Duffel Bags, Thread, Buckles, Webbing, and Foam Support to be able to fabricate enough prototypes to send to be reviewed, tested, and ultimately judged. Naturally, they are offering a variety of ‘perks’ for those that invest.
The makers envision three models –
Basic model – no flap and side pockets
Standard model – flap and side pockets
Advanced model – flap, side pockets, and a hidden compartment for a concealed carry pistol
If you are interested in investing in this concept to give some new life to duffel bags, you will be entered into a drawing. According to the site, these are the prizes –
“There are currently FIVE prizes, so that means there will be FIVE winners, and more prizes are being added! Currently our prizes are 1 Next Level Training SIRT Performer Student Training Pistol (MSRP $219)- This is a non-firing laser training pistol designed to help you train your weapons manipulation skills and trigger control 1 Blind Horse Knives Frontier Knive (MSRP $60), Blind Horse Knives hand makes all of their knives, and they are of exceptional quality and crafstmanship.

The Helio Pressure Shower from NEMO Equipment is great for deployed or back country clean up, whether it’s just you that needs a shower or you are cleaning equipment.
Notice that you don’t have to hang this one upside down to get it to work. Instead, it uses a foot pump to build up pressure.
It comes complete with an 11 liter tank that warms the water in the sun, a hose with spray nozzle, pump, and carrying case. I really like the spray nozzle. It’s just like the one we had in our kitchen sink when I was growing up and it’s very easy to use. I got my hands on a prototype last Summer during Outdoor Retailer and I was duly impressed with the amount of pressure you can build up seeing how it’s powered via a foot pump.
