Really?

Kristy,...you are in a class by yourself!

Dennis, I am trying to be like Jep, how am I doing? The bad thing is no pockets whatsoever. That is why I like my solo buddies to wear Zeagles!...I can take over the pockets. We call them sherpa divers. (I bring food though, remember?)

 

[Diver Dennis]

I'm just teasing but I'm serious about bringing my BP/W. I sent you some more photos, did you get the others open?

I use an Eclipse and I love the wing. The ACB20 weight pockets are another story, and I was interested in seeing that I'm not alone in encountering problems with their auto-eject feature. The old style had an adjustable strap that you could tighten to prevent this.

Why Halcyon screwed up a good design is beyond me. Personally, I think they should recall the ACB20 weight pockets. The only solution I've found is to twist the retaining strap so it's shortened and will therefore hold the pocket in place. I wrote them a letter expressing my disappointment in this product, and so far, have received no response.
