LawnDart21 0 #1 January 4, 2002 Still freezing up here in Boston. Gonna jump tomorrow, even though the exit temp at altitude is currently hovering around negative 12 degrees farenheit at the moment..........anyways, I digress..........okay, so what is the coolest thing you've seen on a cutaway or reserve handle? Like "Plan B" or "Eject" My old rig:Cutaway Handle: "Bad Pack" Reserve Handle: "Repack"Blues, Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkM 0 #2 January 4, 2002 Haven't seen anything like this. Do people just write it on, or can you request this from certain manufacturers?Seen the joke where you put "Plan B, Part 1" "Plan B, Part 2" on a student's cutaway and reserve handles though.

Aviatrr 0 #14 January 5, 2002 Quote They are embroidered onto the handle...there are a lot of them at my dz...usually people's names especially if its a staff rig. I'm sure any rigger can do it. It has to be embroidered before the handle is built.. After it's built, it's too late - gotta buy another if you want it embroidered..Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
