I find it funny that nobody ever complains about this with the Hollis rigs. Out of the box, the tanks will ride out front of your shoulder blades. If you do the mods and set it up like the Armadillo, then you can get the tanks back. Why can't you mod the Razor? A short piece of webbing and some bungee is pretty easy to get.
Why is it okay to modify one system but not the other?
who said its not modified?
Just because there is a potential for something doesn't make it reliable. Being aware of that potential and being able to deal with it is what matters. Your standard rubber hoses could develop a bubble and burst at anytime, does this constitute that these aren't reliable then? A besides all I did was update asking about remove/reducing coil memory, so please explain how this makes anybody a wall lol?
Actually there are far more instances of braided hoses (milfex and others) causing problems than in any of the far more numerous rubber hoses in use. From wear and tear on the braided covering damaging other gear, to the recall on the HP hoses. And you got an update on the memory and additional info on one of their many shortcomings. Info which you dismissed as unimportant to you. I was just highlighting that its not you would be the one running OOA again when your 7ft hose pinches. Knock yourself out though, I'm sure you'll find them marvelous.
