lippy 771 #4 July 27, 2008 I made one a few years ago just by cutting two slits in beer coozy. It works alright but I wouldn't trust it for deployment, I always hold my 'soda' in my hand until I'm open and then use the coozy to free my hands up for a control check, tag the toggles on the velcro and then it's bottoms up.I got nuthin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wrightskyguy 1 #5 July 27, 2008 For cross countries, I like to put my rig on backwards, remove the reserve, and fill the reserve tray with beers that I can share with my CRW buddies. John Wright World's most beloved skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zoobrothertom 5 #7 July 27, 2008 A few years ago, my girlfriend gave me a slightly oversized fanny pack with a bottle/can holder on each end for when you need your hands free. It works great and holds a six pack of cans or bottles. I've used it for CRW and freefall with no troubles. Nothing like docking 6th and passing cold ones up to the top! Don't you wish the airlines had service like that? ____________________________________ I'm back in the USA!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grue 1 #9 July 28, 2008 SLIGHTLY oversized and it holds a 6 pack? I just threw a gatorade in my cargo pocket for my sunset CC yesterday, but then I realized I didn't really like holding it, I wanted to just hang in the harness when I wasn't actively taking a drink Necessity may be the mother of invention, but sheer laziness is the father. cavete terrae.

Except you need a lid, it doesn't do well with open containers, but great for an unopened can of beer!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gemini 0 #17 July 28, 2008 Twardo told me a story two weeks ago about how they used to rest a beer on their belly mounted reserve. Said it worked great! Blue skies, Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DougH 270 #18 July 28, 2008 A fanny sack is a great place to hold a... ermmm soda. You can put the soda in a heavy duty ziplock to contain a burst. I have allways worried that I might have a blow out on the way to jump run and my ass would be grass. If you were insane, and alone in the air, you could use mini carabiners to clip your toggles to your hip rings and fly around in deep deep brakes while you drink your soda.
