get sewn in risers and buy a few hook knives.

get sewn in 'L'-Bars and buy a few GOOD hook knives.

DISCLAIMER: Don't get either and rather get something you can cut away. Preferably reverse risers. There, I said it.

Well that's just your opinion man. I happen to think that they're very light. Ugly? Well that just proves you've got no fashion sense. 'L'-bars are in and 3 rings are like sooo 1 hour ago.

On a more serious note, although the things you say are often coded, they also make sense and bring up good discussion.

And I'm hijacking a thread. again

I'm still curious, what's wrong with the streamlined stealth, they were recommended to me by a very respected jumper. I'm considering getting them so some comments would be useful.

I don't like them because when I pack I stick a stake through the rings or tie them together with a pull-up and you can't do that with streamlined stealth. Wouldn't stop me from buying a Gargoyle though.

both.
I have stealth on mine. I like having full, unrestricted access to the rings and such if needed.

the streamlined ones work fine, but they are just a touch more dificult to manage and they are pretty snug around the ring thingies.

stealth ones cover everything while leaving all the stuff on your shoulders with a relaxed feel, and the streamlined ones are just a little more material than necessary and that might get in the way or just be more to get out of the way when checking stuff..

shit i dunno just personal preference OK LEAVE ME ALONE GEEZ!

whatever man, you know you like the sewn in shit, we both have the cutaway option with sewn in risers. i just dont have the magic sleeve yet.

[jtholmes 0]

oh yeah the cutaway deal is sweet. The super uber duper sick magic sleeve that matt wimmer and I designed is pure brilliance, and simple as hell I can give you dimensions etc...
