but why a hackey and why not the french hardware!?



I got the FF Hacky pud, that white thing is probably someones shoe.

Good freaking catch, I ordered the french hardware! Ofcourse they JUST closed. Guess I'll have to call them tomorrow... (even though its shipping today) B|

Mine is getting shipped out today!



I didn't know that that come with self tightening lag strap adapters! How did you ask for it (it is not an option on the order form)?



I didnt... I ordered french hardware?

Im waiting on word back from them, maybe this is the new upgraded hotness?

Welcome to the V3 side! Time to change that pic of yours now huh? ;)


I will, once I assemble and pack it. (Motivation for me to get my ass in gear and get my riggers ticket.)

You can see it up the thread a little.

BTW: I ended up getting the fancy new hardware because they were out of french hardware and *upgraded* me for free. I'll see how I like it. I hear good things about it.

And it looks even better on the Elsinore couches lol

Well I also got my new V3 but haven't had a chance to jump it yet. It fits good but feels just a bit tight on the shoulders, like there is a little too much pressure on them.

The rig feels more comfy in a box position on my bed tho :P

Just wondering if you guys felt like your V3s kinda got broke in and loosened up with a few jumps on them.

Thanks :)

i got a V306 that feels a bit like a brick, it's VERY tightly packed i think with the chutes i have.. not uncomfortable at all, but it's not like it's softly snuggling against my back..

i love my micron! :)

It uses two locking stows/rubber bands and then the lines are stowed in a side pouch that closes with tabs. They have a different material at the "mouth" of the pouch that pays the lines on opening, most likely helps with durability.

Mine felt a bit tight across the yoke as well when I first bought it. It will loosen up and break in as you jump it. I've got about 100 jumps on mine now, but I think the last 50 or so have felt the same once it loosened up. Enjoy!

Well, here I am, 4.5 months later... Got my riggers ticket and assembled the Vector3-M :P (Got my ticket last week!)

After jumping racers for more than 20 years, now I have received my new Micron.
So I can proudly present it: V316, loaded with Velo 103 and Tempo 120. :)



sexy rig, even more so, isnt it!? B|
