Enjoyed learning about Freesound.
Protection at 85 mph is impressive- although you'd have to be away
from anything that blows in the wind to take advantage of this
ability, right? Like on bare rock, ice, packed snow. At $850, don't
you think there's something fairly elaborate going on with the
materials/design? Maybe you can meet up with someone on list who owns
one and study it. In the Spring, Summer and Fall, my fake fur zeps
fail about the same time that sounds from the rustling leaves and
grass obscure almost everything else. A Windpac might really shine
on bare rock, ice, packed snow,etc. Plus it collapses into a tiny
package I understand. Rob D.
