    Look what I found on EBay!

    Vintage and never used straight from the original box. Made in the USA. I may change the bladder. It’s a 10x7 bag, but if I put in a size small bladder in it should it be okay?

        Nice find, Riqal. I found a very similar 4201 last year. I hope you got a good one. Mine was disappointing. Despite being lightweight vintage kidskin, its pretty dead. The bladder was shot, so I used a medium orange enkay. If you change out your bladder, try to salvage the red plastic one. And I'll be very interested to hear your thoughts on how it hits. I prefer the larger 4202.

            It hits great! I was worried about that plastic bladder being a problem. But wow it works great and I won’t have to change the bladder. That wasn’t the cas with my 4204. That one needed a bladder change.

              Hey this must be the week of solid finds! Look what I'm picking up tomorrow.

              It's a hour and a half drive and the price is decent from Craigslist. It is in a lot better condition than my current 4200. A cleaning and conditioner should have this looking great.

                  Sweet. That has the gyro balanced logo, right? Not the '84 Olympics? Laces look original. So probably has a good red plastic bladder too. Nice find.

                    Yeah it has the Gyro Balanced logo, and it is a Made In USA to boot.

                    But still the hunt goes on (eternally) for a 4204 and any low 4200's Kangaroo.

                      Drove up north today and grabbed the bag. Really nice guy, and it came with a chain link swivel. It was a good deal at $50. The bladder doesn't seem to want to accept more than 2.5 PSI so it may need a new one.

                        If it only takes two and a half pounds and bleeds off, yeah the bladder needs replaced. If it is the red plastic one they have a habit of failing at the seam, more so than at the valve

                            It was east of Keyport. Guy was suspicious of why I was so happy to buy this bag and drive so far. I think he feels the bag was worth much more. Got me a new bladder so I'll be hitting on her 😀 this weekend.
