A clone that is better than the original. Rob Warner Finally a clone that is better than the original. The new Wings container from Sunrise Rigging is more rigger-friendly than the Javelin rig it is cloned from. Wings' superiority is no surprise considering that Henry P. also co-designed the Javelin back in 1988. Starting at the top, initially the reserve ripcord routing may seem ambiguous, but the manual says it is okay to route the ripcord over or under the release housing.
Wings has the first freebag to address the whole issue of zero-p reserve canopies.
Wings revived a concept that was tried and flopped on the Flexon main d-bag. By splitting the the freebag top flap and routing the safety-stow through a total of 6 grommets, they make it easy to slide even a large canopy into the bag and the rigger does not have to break a sweat until later in the pack job. It would take a profound idiot to snag a suspension line on the Wings' freebag. The Wings' novel quick-change reserve pilotchute cap will also speed replacement parts when the inevitable reserve ride occurrs. Sunrise is the first manufacturer to bow to the inevitable when it comes to stuffing the main d-bag into the container.
