    I used to use the black plate that the GoPro packaging comes with and cut 2 slots in it. Then I threaded a belt through it.




    I did that but just threaded my (wide) chest strap through it. Held solid and worked pretty well facing both backwards and forwards.

    I'd suggest rounding off all the corners though, those things are strong and sharp!!

  7. And some of the OP...



    The range of the suit is mighty impressive to watch, especially at break-off. Steve's no ninja :P but this thing is rock solid on its back and a lot of fun to chase.

    As noted above, the attachment system looks messy on this particular suit and raises a few eyebrows during flight-line checks (UK) etc, so fair dues to Tony for coming up with a solution.

    I'll post some pics of the replacement as soon as it arrives.

    Ok, for those who will suffer this problem in the future, here's how I fixed it.

    I used a hair dryer as a low temp heat gun to soften and expand a plastic "joint" and then popped it apart.

    Shitty design.

    :|



    For future reference no hair dryer needed, just pop it apart.

    It's just the same as loc-line hose normally used supplying coolant to cutting heads etc. See here http://www.loc-line.com/

    Plenty of opportunities to make your own mounts/lengths etc should you like to mess around with stuff like this.

    Awesome design :-P

    Wonder if not locating tab will make pull easier...



    The following are LouDiamonds words from an old thread. I don't know how similar the wings and UPT puds are but it might be worth looking at.

    "Something you might want to look at, as I use the UPT freefly handle on one of my rigs, that I found works for me. The handle has a piece of plastic sewn between the cordura that acts as a stiffener which is tucked under the lip of the container and keeps the actual handle secure and in place for freeflying. For wingsuit jumps I don't tuck that stiffener under the container flap but leave it out. The handle still stays in place and the exposed plastic gives you additional positive tactile feedback with or without gloves on. I found that with the stiffener in place under the container the pull was not as smooth as I like. However, on regular skydives I tuck the plastic under the container flap as designed.."

    No hate dude, just a desire for people to actually try to take some personal responsibility, for both their actions and their learning.

    +1 why do some people expect others to do everything for them ?



    -1 it's a forum, where people go to ask questions and get help.

    The idea that random pictures of me on a random website would ruin my life is completely ridiculous...

    ...I wouldn't be thrilled to descover my bare breasts online, but neither would it cause me to have a nervous breakdown...



    Ryoder would have a heart attack. Does that count? ;)
