KRBKV 0 #4 February 1, 2007 Fallschirmdepot Ostermuenchner sells Packboy with one additional cord. But firma is located in Germany.

They might carry the replacement cord there. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites jerry81 10 #9 February 1, 2007 Takes about 10-15 minutes to make a new one out of Cypres cord. Just make sure when you're fingertrapping to run the cord for the free end loop through at least halfway through its length before you do the no-sewing trick, as it leaves a bit of a bump in the line that doesn't go very smoothly through the closing loop after you've packed.
