ManBird 0 #1 May 17, 2004 It's been mentioned that a mod needs to be made to the original Crossbow to keep the suit from "eating" the handles. Would someone please post it if they know it? I'll be borrowing one for a few dozen jumps, but that's good information to be made public. It may apply to modern "one-wing" suits, as well."¯"`-._.-¯) ManBird (¯-._.-´"¯" Click Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VectorBoy 0 #2 May 17, 2004 The new Matter does not have this problem as there are straps and tabs that keep the main lift web out. Hell, I bet the old matter didn't even have that problem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pbla4024 0 #3 May 17, 2004 It's not a problem for S-fly, front MLW slot is horizontal an really small, just for webbing. Fido Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ManBird 0 #4 May 17, 2004 So... it may NOT apply to modern one-wingers. That aside, I'm looking to keep it from happening on the Crossbow I'll be using."¯"`-._.-¯) ManBird (¯-._.-´"¯" Click Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomAiello 26 #5 May 19, 2004 Try PMing PerFlare. I know he owned an early Crossbow, and had some scary experiences with the cutaway handle problem. Perhaps he has some thoughts on how to fix it.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
