I wouldn't say I've heard of any problems. Yes, you need to route the long hose in front of the wing, instead of behind it, but that's easy enough.

Either Wing - I prefer the evolve. You should be able to find text on the hose routing on here.

Reel is kept in right pocket (my preference) - can be clipped of to some bungee cord in the pocket.

I use an Evolve and find it easier to rear dump than my old Explorer but that was a 55lb. Long hose routes in front of the wing which is no problem with an ATX200 1st stage and I know others who do the same with DS4s. Once rigged it is possible to rest the tanks on the bottom of the wing as the wing drops below the bottom of the tanks, which may be better avoided. All in all I would go for the Evolve.

PS.Clip my reel in right pocket, pre-attached to SMB unless on a course which demands otherwise.

Neil

Sorry said Explorer meant Evolve

Love my evolve, no hose routing problem (already explained above), I use Euro cylinders (longer and narrower than Fabers).

Ideal combination for me!!
