Stow less main bag on my vector 3 ?

Recommended Posts

Anyone have any info on these? i am not finding what i'm searching for on here. I saw relative workshop makes on with a big flap on it. I heard infinity makes one as well ? Any info? i am jumping 98 xaos with HMA lines in both my rigs if this is any bearing on this.
Thanks

Here's a pretty good thread regarding the stowless bag for Vector.

There are a few people at my dz that have them and really like it.

Interesting, Greg says to s-fold the lines on the flap, whereas most of the people I've talked to have told me to 'figure 8' the lines, keeping the stows larger on the bottom and getting progressively smaller as you go on.

I may try out the s-folds idea to see if it makes any difference. (which it really shouldn't)

I'm quite interested in getting one of these myself because of the super clean deployments. Has anyone had any issues with wear on the lineset from friction during deployment after say 100- 200 jumps?



250 jumps with this bag and haven't had any sign of lineset wear from friction during deployment

You would think they would try to use the tab design on the freebags, as the hook side of the velcro damages lines.

Maybe one day :)
