Nightingale 0 #40 June 22, 2004 a friend of Clownburner's holds a firm belief that hypoxia causes color blindness. Given some of the stuff I've seen out at the DZ, I'm inclined to agree. There's been a couple of rigs and jumpsuits that I've said "if I ever buy something like that new, shoot me." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FrogNog 1 #41 June 22, 2004 My risers are contrasting colors and I like it that way. Makes it easier to see which way the twists go. I can't explain why the MLWs and pads are contrasting colors, though. -=-=-=-=- Pull. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
