Slider off or down, changed your mind?

[JaapSuter 0]

There's plenty of existing discussions on slider down versus off out here. I don't think we need to rehash those. Both have advantages and disadvantages, and as long as you know both and make an educated decision, either can work great.

That said, I noticed my name appears only two times on the frontpage.

So in the interest of maintaining the status-quo, here's another poll. This is to (dis)prove a theory I have.

Edited to add; obviously ignoring any slider up jumps you do. I'm just talking about what you used in the past and use these days for low stuff.

I think Jaap is talking about whether or not you leave the slider down on low jumps or remove it.

Slider off makes packing neater, and I really prefer the way the canopy handles without the fabric between the risers. That's my main reason for not jumping slider down any more. Also someone, and I don't remember who, once told me it's less likely you'll get a linetwist when the slider is off due to the distance you get between the risers.

Nowadays, however, my slider is mostly way up there. Happiness !

Believe me I would love to, but my wife would kill me. Plus I still think I would leave the slider on. I guess I will have to cross that bridge some day when I get more.
