For those who own one of these gis and a Fuji gi, how does the quality compare? Does it seem to be as durable? Thanks in advance.

I've owned a fuji and a couple of these. They are pretty much the same in my opinion

I believe they are better and build with a better fabric also. More durable and have no advertising on it at all

Hello Aaron. I wish I have the Glidecam to compare both units. I can tell you the Opteka works and do good videos. If you read the reviews on other brands, you'll see lot of complains on setup and quality. Well, that is not a problem with this unit. Setup is really easy and the quality is pretty decent. My "concern" is that it's heavy and after some time, you will feel the weight. I wish Opteka could replace some parts and use aluminum to make it a "perfect" unit (price v/s quality). Now, keep on mind this is for fun... I tried on some parties and all my friends got in love with the unit. BUT if you want to make some money and do it professional, then you'll need to pay more. I hope this helps....

Good review, even though 2 years ago. Still good info. I'm thinking for the pro the Little Giant might show better quality after much use, but for home owners the Gorilla might be fine. Just a guess based on unrelated experience.

Hi there Talise, I found the quality of the gi excellent, but they actually run a bit bigger. I ordered a "4" and it feels like a "5"..hope that helps and enjoy your training:)

"Just waiting on some reviews before pre ordering. I am a little skeptical about image quality."We can drool, but the proof will be in the tests! I haven't seen a review of a superzoom yet that was not a disappointing compromise. I hope they got this one right, I have used a Fuji for years, very trustworthy and fits my usage requirements.

Look, you can't go wrong with this compass. I used it in the Marine Corps as an infantry Sgt. and I use it as a civilian. It's the same compass as USGI issue with an NSN # and they only take US made products. Pull the trigger on this one.

Hi, I have this model and I am absolutely happy with it. I canot tell the difference with other models, but if you have any specific questions, I would be happy to answer. PS. Made in JAPAN- this is the major difference)))

We bought ours in Feb 2012, so just under two years ago. We live in Phoenix, AZ. Has held up great, no noticeable wear or fading even with our 300+ days of sunshine and intense Summers and monsoon storms. I honestly was expecting to get two Summers out of it, but looks like I will get more. Great buy and quality, will buy again when/if this one fails.

I haven't taken it through a course or anything intense (i.e. 1500 rounds all day shooting course) but I have taken it on a range day trip. Haven't really seen any warping from the mount. Seems to hold up just fine. Typical Range trips are 150rds usually.

I bought mine a few months ago, and I have had no problems with it. I have many products by Ranger, and they have always been superior in quality. I bought another mat first, and it was much thinner and split when I folded it to take it with me to a crop. The one from Ranger has been fine. It was shipped rolled up in a tube. It is also less expensive than the inferior one. I guess you can tell that I like Ranger products!

The 000 is your best choice. It may still be a little big, but the GI definitely shrinks when washed.

Hi, I thought there was only the one made, I have searched to see if any others and I can't locate another model. The one the was shipped to me is authentic and a great tool and very versatile for its compact size. Haven't spent enough time with it to see its durability, but if it's like all the other gerber gear I have, I'm sure it will take a beating. Thank out for your question, if anything I can do, feel free. Regards, ken

kabars are pretty good in my opinion theyre too plain for me personally but they are good knives. i like sogs better im out camping in all weather every weekend and ive had my sog for quite a while and its still in perfect condition. the grn handle fits my taste too im not a fan of leather wrapped like the marine kabar knife because i had one that the handle got waterlogges and started to flake and chip away. still a strong knife just the handle started going bad after a while. sog is my recommendation unless you have money for higher quality knives such as tops. zt. etc...

I would recommend a higher end bike for competition. This is a good starter bike and it is great for exercise or recreation, but it is simply not on par with Shimano or Fuji. It will do in a pinch, but I is not ideal.

Hi Robert, I am not sure, but I think the sizes are identical even though I noticed that my judo gi is a little bigger than BJJ gi. Also the sleeves shrink a lot so I stopped using the dryer. Hope this helps

My gi is a 5/190 & fits me great. Sizes are based on height & weight, so be sure to check those 2 things in order to get the right size.
