The dump valves are the standard ones used on most wings.

[hijack] Umm . . . someone help me out, please - am I to understand that DiveRite dump valves have a sticking problem? If so, what does one look for when cleaning / inspecting them? [/hijack]

They can close off center and one side will stay up on the top lip. I've seen it a couple times. Easily fixed by putting some silicone lube on then every now and then.

They would have done better with a recessed dump on the back of the wing. I'm working on a design now to modify my current rig. Also, not everyone advertises their projects.

You may be right. Dump valves like many parts have their failures,and there may be a better solution.
