Jeth 0 #102 October 11, 2006 QuoteI am sorry, I tried REALLY hard not to post this, but you DID ask! The purple looks like vomit for sure. The purple and yellow look awful together, but if you insist on putting those colours together, rather DON'T add the third colour,.. i.e. the blue, just go for the purple and yellow ( I mean, they are bright enough on their own).. what is the cost for FULL tie dye, instead of the free partial tie tye, as I think maybe the full tie dye will look better? Sorry if I sound very critical, but the first thing I thought when I saw the purple tie dye, was VOMIT! Also why don't you give the yellow tie dye a try too? would be interested to see a photo of the final rig! xx Sarah Ok, people, you need to look down in the thread for my revised design! I now realize that the first one was hideous, thank you for setting me straight on that one. But I do like my latest. So if you are going to comment, please comment on this one!

lisamariewillbe 1 #104 October 11, 2006 should the cut away and reserve handle be different colors for safety reasons?

normiss 622 #105 October 11, 2006 I have a yellow cutaway handle...or at least it was when I got it to replace the orange one...and now it's almost black just from checking handles... yellow is VERY easy to see when you need your handles...but it gets very dirty very quickly.

Jeth 0 #106 October 11, 2006 Quoteshould the cut away and reserve handle be different colors for safety reasons? Maybe Im wrong but I read that before. Ya, I thought about that. But I'm pretty confident that I will pull them in the right order. And anyway, I don't think it would help me to just have 2 different colors, I'd need the cutaway to be red to be helpful."At 13,000 feet nothing else matters." PFRX!!!!!

lisamariewillbe 1 #107 October 11, 2006 OOps I meant different from each other.... cutaway one color then reserve a different color? Quoteyellow is VERY easy to see when you need your handles...but it gets very dirty very quickly Dude then stop checking the handles, I mean looking pretty is what counts right?

NWFlyer 2 #108 October 11, 2006 Quoteshould the cut away and reserve handle be different colors for safety reasons? Maybe Im wrong but I read that before. Or even a D-ring for the reserve handle rather than a pillow. There's pros and cons to both approaches; personally I'll always have a D-ring because I like the idea that I can hook one finger or the thumb of either hand in there and still get the reserve out in a situation where I'm incapacitated."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

normiss 622 #110 October 11, 2006 I second THAT opinion! Sometime, I think we will all see how hard it is to pull ... and be thankful for the silver handle! And I'll ALWAYS check my handles...you should see some of the crazy exits we seem to come up with! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 35 #111 October 11, 2006 Quoteshould the cut away and reserve handle be different colors for safety reasons? Maybe Im wrong but I read that before. Can you even see your handles past your breasts? I can't, I just do it all by feel, so the color is a moot issue for me. I like having a D ring anyway, it's worked well for me twice so far.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
