Also, this sounds strange but if anybody did'nt mind and had a spare 5 mins, could you send me pics of your rigs. I'm a bit of a geek and just like looking at different rigs!!!
Thanks.

If you go on the Morpheus Gargoyle page and select the detailed view tab, there are pictures of the different types of riser cover available.

Is there not really any advantage to having the other types of riser covers because there doesn't seem to any added price. I would have a slight concern that maybe the covers (especially the streamline stealth) would only complicate openings on low jumps.
Thanks

e-mail the crew at morpheus with all your questions.

They will give you the answers you are looking for.

Re: [sspindle] Gargoyle riser covers
you could solve the riser cover/low initial tension problem on low jumps by simply opening it before the jump, just like you open a pin cover.

I have a gargoyle, It heavy but built very well.

PM'd Mr. Spindley but then thought why don't I boast my toy to the rest of you guys? :)

The design is weird, yesSmile, but that's exactly what I like and what I want. We've been together for 20 jumps already. I enjoy every minute of using it. Just perfect.

you be fine with "streamline stealth" covers...i had this type of covers on my vsx-treme a couple of years ago, and i jump it as low as 35meters...nothing to worry about
