I was tidying and setting gear out when I thought it would be great to see some options on personal handheld GPS devices and software or accessories add-ons.

Any chance snowboarding/ski equipment/gear getting some Massdrop treatment? I was thinking since it's seasonal there could be good chance of getting consistent/yearly deals (Idk if it works that way) but there's definitely lots of things to be sold. A lot of my friends go skiing/snowboarding and lots of them would probably end up buying other stuff from the other communities in Massdrop. Plus we all kind of hop on sales for winter gear/clothes/equipment every chance we get every year. What do ya say?!?!

Outdoors is becoming its own community! After the great response from everyone, it is graduating out of incubation and we are preparing for a super exciting launch. The Outdoors Community will be launched as a stand alone community this Friday (February 17th).

I guess I'm still confused. It sounded like you were going to start an Outdoors community but it wasn't ready yet. OK, I eventually got that. Now I'm seeing drops with the words "NEW COMMUNITY: OUTDOORS" but when I go to the Communities dropdown it's missing. But I do see them under Massdrop Hub community (which just seems weird to me). I think it would be easier for people to find the drops if they could subscribe and view the Outdoors community. I can't believe I'm the only one being confused by this roll out -- looking forward to the new community though.

The idea is to launch a new community in Massdrop Hub which acts like an incubator to see how it would perform before the full roll out. Here is a link with how this process will take place: https://www.massdrop.com/talk/1094/how-massdrop-decides-on-new-communities. That being said, an "Outdoors" community is pretty much certain and we'll soon be making an update about when it is launching.
I hear you about the surfacing of drops for the new communities being incubated within Massdrop Hub and we are working on it.

Thanks for pointing me to that article. It made the process much clearer.
In the current Massdrop web design, there appear to be a hierarchical grouping of various communities under "Communities" which is represented by the drop down at the top of the page. What isn't shown, is that there is a sub-hierarchy under Massdrop Hub for the incubator communities. This is what confused me because I wanted to see the Outdoor community but it's not listed.
May I make a humble suggestion or two. If you want to have the new communities under the Massdrop Hub community, it might be nice to have the dropdown (and the subsequent community page) clearly show these communities. Alternately, you might want to have a new top level drop down on the page saying something like "Beta Communities" (Incubator Communities?) that would make it easier to access them and to make it clear that these are still in the beginning/testing phase and haven't been incorporated into the main Communities structure.
It's good that Massdrop is changing to reflect the communities interest. I'm looking forward to the Outdoor community and would like to see all the drops/discussions/polls/etc and also to subscribe -- even if it's only a beta community which may undergo changes or be dropped completely.

The outdoors means to me hunting and fishing, reels, rods, tackle, and stuff like that, hunting isn't all guns and ammo plus to be a vendor for that there are LOADS of restrictions in the states and the ability to vend weapons is restrictive in and of its self. Just providing things like hunting vests in orange to comply with laws and get some function for the added clothing, maybe some thermal clothing, camouflage, game calls, and more to garner some interest from this group of people. There are more things you could provide there just needs to be some research to find out if there is a community here that will want these offerings or if they are looking for something else.

I would like to see a drop on external frame, modular MOLLE/Malice packs that can be reconfigured for a wide variety of use by adding day packs, duffles, dry bags, pouches, used as a pack board, etc.
Examples such as the J51 Warhammer from Eberlestock, Kifaru package, Mystery Ranch built on the NICE frame etc.

Would love to have Canoe and Kayak represented here...Wilderness Systems, Necky, Perception, Jackson, NRS, Kokatat, Werner paddles, AT, Bending Branches, Wenonah, Yakima, Stohlquist and many, many more.
Would also love to have more Tenkara fishing stuff (now in Ultralight) and regular flyfishing. St. Croix, Sage, Lamson, Ross, TFO, Rio, Scientific Angler, and so on.
Finally, it would be great to have archery represented, not necessarily bow hunting, but archery. Martin, Bear, Hoyt, Samick, Easton arrows, Truglo, Matthews, Morell and Block targets, Delta McKenzie targets, Allen accessories, NAP, Quad arrow rests, Trophy Ridge, etc.

Does the 33+10 capacity mean 33l for the main bag + 10l for the pockets? Does the 33 include the extension collar?

I have read in your replies to some reviews that a new batch with minor improvements is planned. When will this version be available?

I know some people have been complaining about the size of the space between the front pocket and the bag. Is there a way to adjust the size of that space, or perhaps changing the shockcord for a longer one?

Anything other than keyboards and headphones?
... and unknown brand knives!
Are we ever going to she the products that made us join (mass)Drop again? I really liked what you had here ... but with such a narrow selection of products I am unable to find anything to order any more.

Why are there so few outdoor drops?
I used to buy a ton of outdoor gear here. I find myself not able to anymore because there are so few drops! What happened to the outdoor community? Can we do anything to help bring it back? I don't want to see it go the way of a bunch of other favorite communities that got cut.

The first time in snow for my X-mid 1p. There was quite a weight of snow when I awoke this morning, but it handled it well!

Say Goodbye To The Unpleasantness of The Past，Welcome a Better D&D Life
2020 is destined to be an extraordinary year. We have all encountered many setbacks: COVID-19, the postponement of the Olympic Games, the death of ball king Maradona, etc. However, even the sadness of loneliness is worth storing these experiences in our minds, taking care of them, and then taking them out one day to savor them. These are all worthy of recollection and reflection.
In the new year, we will also sum up the past growth, clean up the shortcomings, and be more dedicated in future product development and customer maintenance. Of course, in order to welcome the coming of the new year, we have also launched some new products, hoping to get your approval.

What is the status in the product?
@dandurston I pre-ordered your new backpack months ago. I received a confirmation email, but no tracking number. I emailed drop itself and haven’t received any thing back. It said that the estimated ship dat was 11/17 and would take 5-7 business days to ship. In reality my pack should have arrived to me already and I have no clue what the status is on the product at all. PLEASE HELP!

UPDATE (Feb 15th, 2017): Outdoors is becoming its own community! After the great response from everyone, it is graduating out of incubation and we are preparing for a super exciting launch. The Outdoors Community will be launched as a stand alone community this Friday (February 17th).
UPDATE (Feb 3rd, 2017): New drops will be launching everyday for Outdoors. Please take a look at the new drop here https://www.massdrop.com/hub/drops
UPDATE (Feb 1st, 2017): And it's on! Commerce team is starting to launch drops for 'Outdoors' starting tomorrow. As you can see https://www.massdrop.com/talk/1188/outdoors-community-drops-coming-tomorrow :)
UPDATE (Jan 31st, 2017): Our Commerce team has been planning on drops for Outdoors and we'll start listing them on Massdrop Hub later this week.
We’re excited to introduce Outdoors as the first new community to launch on Massdrop Hub. Many members have shared ideas for new communities, but none has been so hotly requested as a more general community for those who love the great outdoors.
What can we expect in the Outdoors Community?
We’re glad you asked! “Outdoors” is pretty broad, so to keep the focus strong, we’ll be concentrating on the following subcategories during the community’s launch:
- Camping and hiking
- Climbing and mountaineering
- Seasonal sports (for example, this time of year, it’s all about snow sports)
As the community builds, we’ll introduce more subcategories using polls and new discussion threads.How can I let Massdrop know what I want in Outdoors?
We’ve created some polls to gather input on products and brands from all of you. Please vote in these polls and feel free to create more—we’re here and paying attention to make sure we bring you exactly what you want.
