Modification Question:
I was thinking of attaching a peace of f 111 to my mesh slider with velcro. Making a temp sail slider, has anyone have any problem with this modification? A friend told me about it and I wanted to get a second opinion on it.


The biggest problem with this Modification is the potential interaction between the hook Velcro and the lines, The slider has a range of different positions and dynamic stresses during the initial opening stages which can cause the sail material to seperate the fastening velcro thereby exposing it (Velcro/Sail) to the lines in the slider´s descent possibly causing slider hangup and or line damage.
Adam and Dennis played with this Idea 10yrs ago and discarded it to the "Sounded good, but impractical" scrapped idea heap...

The air stream doesn´t always hit the bottom side of the slider, in assymetric openings especially..
