As for options - went for the chest rings, narrow strap, spacer foam backpad, hackey handle, soft reserve handle, RSL.

Another question: what about options you've taken (Chest ring, soft pad, etc.) ? Thanks. I got the spacer foam back pad but that was because I had a free voucher for it. It is my CRW contiainer so I really enjoyed that i came standard with hip rings. Harness inpout needed to my minimized since I'm doing CRW in it. I did go for the Free fly handle, but the PC and bag stay in a box. I can't use it for CRW. I really love the gusets that are sewn in the main container to kep the risers straight and not wrapping around the reserve container. I free pack with a tail pocket and it helps with on heading openings and keeping my reserve container from getting worn out by the connector links. I did modify it and moved the closing loop to flap one so I could free packand not have the flap of fabric where the loop originally was catch my canopy and tear something. Lightnings have a reefing system for the PC and Bridle that can catch on that thing and cause problems when free packed.
