Not sure if Hans has the plans for that or not.... He's the only one who could make it since Nebula is no longer in existence. He does have the rights to make any Nebula design. Rogue doesn't seem to be doing jack squat with Nebula.
So did he onsell the designs to Rogue to use also?

Hans sold all of the rights to the Nebula name and gave all the plans to Rogue. Hans retained the ability to also keep the Nebula plans and continue making 'Nebula' but has to put Rae Crowthers Stickers on them.

^^ See the Star Trac vertical chest in action with 5 plates.
While it is not as good as the Atlantis vertical chest by any means, it is still an A-
What I really want to demo is the Star Trac decline... word is that it is outstanding. In a cost no object gym, it might be nice to have have the Star Trac decline beside the Atlantis vertical chest.

You may be in luck ( maybe ). That Crunch in Elk Grove is now open and below is a pic that was put on the Yelp page for that gym which shows the decline ( but anyone can load any pic they want on yelp ). I also added the floor plan for that gym and it shows 5 pieces of plate loaded equipment and what appears to be the free weight curl bars in the same place, and also the bench press are in the same place as well. Cardio machines also match and they were uploaded by the same person so chances are looking pretty good its there. I plan on going there but cannot make it for the next 2-3 weeks because of prior obligations.

Yes, that's cool... can see the decline. Wow they really went all Star Trac... too bad new gyms suck anymore. Non selective, entire lines instead of picking the best of each line...
Look forward to hear your impression. Doubt I can make it there before you... but I might be going to SAC sometime soon... probably after you... so maybe I'll stop by. Post your results when you get there. I'll do the same. Thanks for the heads up!

Here you go. Star Trac Vertical Chest starts at 3:38
Rae Crowther has a new website. It is better than the old one, but it still sux. Standard pricing is listed for some of the products. The link is for the "strength" side of the site.
Here is a new pic of the Legend Leveredge Dip, showing you can use it sitting in either direction. One thing I failed to pay attention to before is that it lacks knee support like the Hammer dip, if your going really heavy then this could become and issue.

Forgot to mention, my favorite leg raise is the Life Fitness SLR with the unique 1/2 ball style back pad. It conforms to your back and creates a natural curve. Very comfortable and feels ergonomically perfect. (It's the only Life Fitness piece I own.)
However, he hasn't tried the Atlantis version. Not sure which is 'better', but take a look:

Looks like a poor design. I would think it should be easy for these companies to take a great design and make it better... Not sure why so many companies make so many mistakes...

Agree. For a company that set out to improve upon Hammer Strength design offerings, I'm not seeing it with this piece.
My favorite seated dip remains the Hammer Strength unless I find something better.
