Custom made harness/containers??? / need advice
Zydrius replied to Zydrius's topic in Gear and Rigging
first of all, thank you for your opinion. Let me explain situation again. I was low experienced skydiver (like other guys) and decided to change my old container to new one, local dealer measured me and other guys and ordered custom rigs (money in advance). We have a lot of captured video during whole year, i mean video after one-two-..-five months of jumping. Now i rechecked all material and pls find attached more photos as evidence that our rigs were badly measured (shots from different periods). Dealer after such video and huge amount of photos as evidence said "go away, your rigs manufactured properly, looseness is comfort, nobody will help you, you have to pay money for repair if you're unhappy", after that he said, that "perhaps your rigs were made wrong by manufacturer and he don't cares about that, it's to late". Feedback from manufacturer through dealer was: there is repair instruction, manufacturer do not take any responsability for safety, you can't show it to anybody, only to riger. Most important thing, that now we have emails from our dealer explaining how he measure customers and order custom made rigs. Do you thing it's normal? Customer service? Not bamboozlement? I didn't posted name of manufacturer, just asked for opinion about such situation. Why dealer decided to bamboozle customers. Do such way worth that? For us situation is very clear, 'cause there is to much evidence our rigs were ordered in wrong way. You can say we are 'silly' or 'stupid' customers, but that will not help to solve that issue in right way. Local riger made repair for my rig (second is waiting), back strap now is shorter 14cm!, each leg strap cover shorter 6cm (method which was suggested by manufacturer did not fit to my rig, I will explain you later with photos and additional material) . Local dealer paid for repair but it costed and will cost to much bad emotions for both. Is the way we are going really wrong? Are we 'sux'? I don't think so P.s. I didn't made 300jumps on my rig (we do not discuss about patches on our rigs, the point is safety) and when rig was ordered, i had Heatwave170, this canopy was little bit to big for my rig, so rigger put longer main closing loop, now i have Xf139 and it fit perfect (pls do not use info from weak vessel). -

Zydrius replied to Zydrius's topic in Gear and Rigging
after long discussion with dealer, he suggested to me to use some “low paid “ local riger service to repair rigs. Even more, he sent to me some drawing with explanations how to repair rig, but underlined that this scheme is unofficial and I can’t show it to anybody ( :) seems like joke, but I have original e-mails). And this not the end :) Also he wrote that scheme is not certified by manufacturer and they won’t take any responsibility. After such discussion and “suggestions” from dealer, I have sent one more letter to manufacturer on Friday with all details and the outcome was that they promised to start investigation on Monday (because they had public day on Friday). I could guess that our dealer when ordering rigs gives measurement to manufacturer, but introduce it like customers made them by themselves. -
Custom made harness/containers??? / need advice
Zydrius replied to Zydrius's topic in Gear and Rigging
it's sad to say, that even after this video material was sent to manufacturer together with actual measurement of half waist made while investigation, the replay from supplier, to be short, was a bill for more than 240+Eur(~283USD+) for repair and advice to contact local dealer. After that, i received email from our dealer he explained how he got those figures: he added about 11 dditional cm to original length of thight circumfrence (leg strap) and about 7 to 10 cm to half waist length. The explanation was, he knows better than manufacturer how to measure people and also for ensuring rig would be not to small...... as i wrote before, we had at least three similar cases with few more guys who also ordered "custom made" rigs and all they have to long leg and back straps. The global forum of dz.com perhaps the last chance to get some solution or advice and to safe our money and to solve that issue. Manufacturer is more than 1000km from our place. -

Zydrius replied to Zydrius's topic in Gear and Rigging
one of the points is that our dealer till now says that rigs were measured correctly and fits good. And the second point of discussion is who should pay for repair of such "custom made" rigs? -
