New Javelin bridle cover Flap

Recommended Posts

Where exactly is this bridle protector flap on the new javelin? Is the flap protecting the BOC pouch or the bridle routed from the pin to the end of the right flap?? Help me out here.....
The longer you wait ........the more sense you get.

The bridle cover flap is a little flap that meets the boc mouth, and continues into the right side closing flap, avoiuding two possible sources of drama:-
1, it means there is no bridle esposed to the wind, absolutely none at all, zip, niet, nada, zilch.
2, it prevents you stuffing the bridle over the right side closing flap possibly causing a horseshoe, unlikley yet possible for the severely hard of thinking.

So do I, but you can't have her, she's all mine, ;), your welcome to borrow her, as long as I get to take her home each nite.....
They did a real nice job on the T/D doncha think?
BTW that's their new F/fly pud instead of a hackey, feels a little strange at first, but no big deal as I've jumped pull outs before.

The Javelin bridle cover flap is sewn onto the bottom main pack flap. It can make it _more difficult_ to stuff over the stiffener found on the top of the bottom flap, but it will not prevent it. As an experiment, I purposely did a rush job on tucking the bridle in and stuffed it aggressively. It was fairly easy to tuck it up over the stiffener and cause the pc in tow, just as in a rig w/o the cover flap.

No way, Phree! We're just getting started! You don't have to watch if you don't want to!

A little bit of fun is OK, but the Talk Back Forum is really where you should take this or to private messages. All work and no play sucks, but the majority of readers/posters in this forum come for serious questions and answers about gear and rigging related topics, as that is the purpose of this forum and why it is moderated. Sooooo.........use good judgement and know when to say when. Posting in this forum is a privelege that can be revoked if it is abused.
