In Reply to: DIR demo = Halcyon sales pitch posted by Chris on March 01, 2001 at 13:31:58:
with all fairness, if one chooses to be 'dir', one
does NOT need to buy 'halcyon'. one can shop around
and find something else to their liking and price
range which will still fit a 'dir' protocol.
personally, the only 'halcyon' items i own are
a 36# wing (and i replaced the inflator on that
b/c i didn't like the generic one 'halcyon' uses)
and the pair of wt pouches.
i like the wing, but as for the wt pouches, i would've
jumped on something else that is LESS EXPENSIVE
and just as functional...alas, there is nothing
out there at the moment.
if i ever feel inspired, i may design a pair.
i know someone else who is actively trying to
find replacement pouches for HIS purposes.
anyway, i don't necessarily agree that the 'dir'
demo is exclusively a sales pitch, but to each
his own.
