flyangel2 2 #176 December 27, 2002 Quote Chris - the woman you're refering to manufactures equipment and probably made the very rig she's wearing. Her husband is a master rigger. I doubt if too many people would "correct" her on her equipment. I might have said, "so, do you prefer your cable like that?" Yes, safety is critical, but there is such a thing as the etiquete of respect in addressing perceived safety issues with someone who has been in the sport over 20years and has thousands of jumps. I hope I'm not opening a can of worms with this post... Lori Yes, she and her husband did make that rig. You are so right Lori, it's all in how you approach the subject with some jumpers. Ego tends to get in the way sometimes. Now I'm sure I opened a can of worms on that statement May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ego tends to get in the way sometimes. Now I'm sure I opened a can of worms on that statement I don't think it's always about ego. Sometimes, yes, but not always. Some people do odd things for their own reasons. Just because something doesn't look right to you, doesn't mean it's wrong. You can still point stuff out, but go at it assuming they meant for it to be like that. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diverdriver 5 #184 December 27, 2002 QuoteBut you can point things out without making it a big deal. Isn't that what I did? I just asked if someone wanted to fix the obvious snag point on a cutaway system. I obviously don't know her or her background but maybe a cutaway cable protruding way out in the open is still a bad idea no matter what rig manufacturer she is. From what I've heard this person also goes over and messes with people's rigs without asking. So maybe she could head your advice too. Quote"It's all good..." Unfortunately....sometimes it's not.
