Would you be so kind as to forward that to me if you were able to find it?

Get a chance to blow those up yet?

Excellent, thanks for the info

I look forward to hearing how your tests go. I've been trying to come up with a rig to do some pull tests and haven't gotten anywhere yet.

Apologies for mistakenly presuming Mil Spec. Regarding Aluminum, it is very common in other air sports as a load bearing buckle though non that I'm aware of come under such loads as Sky/Base. I know some people who have used and are using these style buckles on rigs (ty8webbing) though I wanted to reach out to a larger audience / experience pool to see if there were any hard facts.

I'm searching to see if anyone has experience with either BASE or Sky using the Austria Alpin Triglide friction adapters. From what I can tell they have a WLL of ~2100lbs which compared to industry standard cadmium/SS hardware is about 400 lbs shy. But one consideration is that the industry standard hardware is listed as 'tensile strength' so perhaps the WLL of the cadmium/SS hardware is actually lower than 2500lbs? And of course Triglide is a milspec product so that should allay any reliability fears. For those who aren't sure what I'm talking about here you go: [url]http://www.austrialpin.net/products/military/framebuckles.ASP **(yes the add seems to indicate 18kn which is higher than 2100lbs but the actual 1.75" Triglides are rated lower which comes out to ~2100lbs) Does anyone have any other thoughts or experience to the safe use of this hardware?

I've just purchased the Fortrex 401 by Garmin. But while waiting for it to arrive I heard that the 401 my not have a high enough sample rate compared to the 301. Has anyone else run into this problem (or any others) with the 401? Forum search found me no usable data regarding the 401 and this complaint. Thanks

Aside from loving the performance that this altimeter offers, I am also amazed with the customer service that L&B offers. Recently I realized that I had lost my wrist mount for it. I then sent an e-mail to L&B asking where I would be able to find one. Within the next 24 hours I had a response from them offering to send me one for free! I have enjoyed all of the features of this altimeter and would recommend it to everyone! Good product and great customer support. What more can you ask for?
