Dive Rite Rec Wing Owners

[mossym]

Can anyone who owns a Dive Rite wing possibly take a picture of how the gusset is attached? I bought a second hand rec wing. and the owner had the gusset removed. He sent me the gusset, and i've tried rigging it how i thought i should go, but it doesn't seem right. I'd really appreciate a pic to show me how it's done.

THanks in advance!!

I am in Key Largo finishing my DM right now, and don't have Camera, Docking station etc.

If no one has posted picture by next week when I get home I will send you a pic.

And yes, it does help keep the wing in closer, and not "taco'ing" and yes you CAN manually inflate "bungied wings of death".

So I'm curious why DiveRite and their dealers call this a "Gusset System" when clearly it's a bloody bungee. What a crock of mis marketing!

 

[Diesel298]

fancy wording for a basic system. alot of companys do it
i think my favriote is the term
"classic downsteram"

Diesel298, you the man!!

Thanks a million, i figured that was the way it went, but the string i got is much too short, i need longer string,

only problem now is i seem to be missing the loop on the top of the wing you have shown, it's not on my wing, anyone else not have this?

Or maybe because the bungie passes through gussets in the wing.
