e.a.hernandez 0 #1 Posted September 10, 2020 Do you have any pictures of bungee balls installed to hold the sliders? Do you sew it to the tape by the yoke? How long of a bungee do you typically use? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Binary93 65 #2 September 10, 2020 You usually don't sew them but wrap them around the reserve flap. I don't use a bungee but a magnetic variant (at least it will release at some point during the cutaway) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't use a bungee but a magnetic variant (at least it will release at some point during the cutaway) I like the magnetic but not a fan of putting anything on the reserve flap. R.I. makes a magnetic that is attached to a fabric loop sewn to the trim on the yoke. No interaction with the reserve flap and very effective. I'm sure a field installation can be performed with this or any similar design. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm just a bit nervous about anything that could foul a deployment, and putting an elastic band around the flap adds an element that could come into play under unusual circumstances. I'd love to hear other folks' experiences. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How do you set it up on rig and how do you attach a slider to it. Maybe even a picture if you don't mind. Edited November 24, 2020 by Matija Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So THAT's what the d@mn ball in the beer is good for... JW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
