Hi, In Belgium we have two type's of "stowless POD" being made: The LazyBag: http://www.compal.be/LazybagEN.html They started without magnets but the more recent models are semi magnetic. The mPod: http://www.pgasus.be/start.php?pg=text&item=mPOD Fully magnetic design, this one is being made by our local DZ-rigger. Personally i have been using the mPod since jump N°100 and for me the best thing i bought since i started :-) I like to jump 8-10 times a day an really love the "packing ease"! I've used two different sizes for different conopy's ranging from Pilot 150 to VE and VC90. Used them in icon sport containers and in my new micron (ordered the micron with their "stowless bag"... used it for 2 weekends and mounted the mopod :-) ). Never had problems on openings (no unusual sh*t), i think i have 4 twists in 1300 jumps! Loads of people use them here in Schaffen and in Belgium (mix of both mpod and lazybag). Some people may not like/trust em but everybody just has to make their own choices :-) Cheers!
