Maybe this is a trend of the future, or just history repeating itself, either way I like the idea, dbags scare meTuck tabs."¯"`-._.-¯) ManBird (¯-._.-´"¯" Click Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kimgriffin 0 #29 August 21, 2003 Hi Steve. I spoke to the Berger bag designer yesterday and he said that Sun Path holds the patent on the new stowless bag. ~Kim-Kimberly Griffin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ManBird 0 #30 August 21, 2003 I also found out that Sunpath makes Wings' d-bags, so there's still hope. :)"¯"`-._.-¯) ManBird (¯-._.-´"¯" Click Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pyke 0 #32 August 21, 2003 Those bags look awesome!! I hope RWS thinks of something similar....or I can work out an aftermarket d-bag switch for my Vector - that would rock!!

LouDiamond 1 #33 August 21, 2003 QuoteThose bags look awesome!! I got to handle one for a bit and it looks well put together as well as passing the common sense test for safety and functionability. I have yet to jump one but I would have no reservations about jumping it Birdman or otherwise."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pyke 0 #34 August 21, 2003 Quotegrommet to pin means the grommet where the bridle comes out is packed up against your pin, i.e. you rotate the dbag 90 degrees so the bridle is coming straight up, can be tough with big dbags I suppose if I was had my rig in front of me - I could have figured that one out!!
