Velcro and Pins
Just curious what direction everyone is going. I myself have two velcro and two pin rigs. Only three canopies though. (Need to fix that) I'm starting to like the pin rigs more and more but I'll always have my trusty "Vision".
I'm talking all around rigs for slider on and slider off jumps.

Re: [DaveO] Velcro and Pins
I had both Velcro and Pins (until I sold my velcro) - I have always been very happy with my velcro - but will always now stick with pins. Due to the heights of some of the objects I freefall - I prefer the lower pull force that you can get from a pin rig......
