Vector Options

Cosmetic

Contrast Stitching

All containers come standard with binding tape stitching matching the color of the binding tape. With contrast stitching, it is sewn with a contrasting color of your choice to add some flair to your container. *Please contact us for available colors.

JC Stitching

Random stitch pattern sewn on some of the cordura panels. The stitch patterns vary by container, so each one is unique! *Please contact us for available colors.

Center Flap Piping

Add a bit of detail to your center stripes by breaking them up with piping!

Black Hardware

Give your rig a stealthy look with black hardware!

Back Pad

Standard Deluxe Backpad

The Standard Deluxe Backpad is our standard option. It is available in cordura or parapak, and can be either padded for comfort, or unpadded for less bulk.

3D Spacer Foam Backpad

Adds comfort and breathability with a multi-piece padded mesh design. This feature is also added to the leg pads.

Babylon Backpad

The benefits of 3D spacer foam, with the durability of cordura. Babylon uses the same padded configuration as the spacer foam option, but has a cordura covering to protect from dirt and wear.

Harness

Variable Geometry Harness

Also referred to as VGH, or hip rings, gives added flexibility and range of motion by allowing the harness to hinge at the waist.

Two Piece Leg Pads

Contoured for comfort, our two-piece leg pads are sleek and trim to keep your leg pads snug against your body in even the fastest flying positions. The two-piece leg pads are only available with the Variable Geometry Harness.

One Piece Leg Pads

The one-piece leg pads wrap all the way around your leg and have padding between the hip hardware (if VGH harness) and your body. One-piece leg pads are available on both VGH and non-VGH harnesses.

Rolled Edge Leg Pad

Sewn with a reverse seam, to add cushion and increase comfort while in the air and while on the ground. Rolled edge leg pads are available on both the one piece and two piece leg pads.

2 Off The Top

For those with smaller legs or anyone who wants their hardware a little higher up. We offer -2 off the top. This option reduces the short, front part of the leg pad by 2 inches.

Leg Pad Covers

Whether you’re having trouble standing up landings or you just come in way too fast and standing up isn’t an option. Check out our new leg pad covers. We have them available for one piece, two piece, student, tandem, and tandem passenger leg pads.

Stabilizers

Standard Stabilizers

Rigid stabilizers sewn to the main lift web.

Padded Stabilizers

Foam padding on the standard hard stabilizer for added comfort. Foam can either be mesh, or cordura covered. Available only with the spacer foam or Babylon style backpads.

Soft Stabilizers

Padding wrapped directly around the harness webbing, the soft stabilizers add one more level of comfort by removing the hard outer material. This allows for the stabilizer to be a bit more flexible and to hug the body better.

Risers

Large Ring w/ Type 8

More commonly used on student gear or parachute systems with larger canopies (220 and above).

Mini Ring w/Type 17

Type 17 risers with Mini Rings are the most widely used option with sport harnesses.

Louie Loops

Reinforced front dive loops for ease of grabbing your fronts! All of our risers come standard with front dive loops, but Louie Loops take that one step farther allowing the loops to be more pronounced and easier to grab.

Louie Loops Low Drag

Looking for that extra speed and distance? Low drag risers help you get there by reducing the surface area, thus minimizing parasitic drag. Louie Loops are included with them.

Reserve Deployment

Soft Handle

Soft, low profile pillow handle.

Metal “D” Handle

Standard metal handle

Mini “D”

Metal D handle, but the height is reduced to accommodate shorter main lift web, or just personal preference.

Low Profile “D”

Metal D handle that does not protrude as far as the standard D to reduce the risk of being snagged, while still allowing you to hook your thumb into it when pulling.

Standard RSL

Connects your reserve pin to your main risers, so when your main is cutaway, your reserve pin is automatically pulled.

Skyhook

Is a MARD (main assisted reserve deployment), which is an enhancement to the RSL that extracts your reserve canopy from the bag significantly faster than a standard reserve deployment by using the main canopy as the reserve pilot chute.

Spectra Ripcord

Spectra is extremely strong and is also retractable, allowing for more force when deploying your reserve. Only available with a Skyhook or RSL.

Metal Ripcord

Standard ripcord

Main Deployment

Stowed Bag

Standard rubber band stowed bag with stows on the closing flap.

U-Stow Bag

Semi stowless bag option with pocket for stacking the lines into.

V-Stow Bag

Similar to the U Stow, but the V stow allows for the pocket to open up to easily fold the lines in.

White F111 

Provides less oscillation during deployment.

Black ZP

Provides quicker extraction during deployment.

Plastic

Lightweight and easy to grab.

Monkey Fist

Can be either standard monkey fist, or with freefly tab (as shown) for added security at an additional cost.

Hackey

Can be either standard hackey, or with freefly tab (as shown) for added security at an additional cost.

Freefly

Low profile with and additional tab for extra security.

Wingsuit

Dynamic Corners

Folding corners on the main tray that allow for the tray to open completely flat allowing for a smooth deployment.

Wingsuit Bridle

Longer bridle to allow the deployment bag to get fully out of the burble of the wingsuit when deploying.

30″ Pilot Chute

Larger pilot chute for faster extraction from the main tray.
