My rigger at my dropzone told me he thinks vectors are very uncomfortable and that mirage is being run by "kids" now. He's a huge safety freak so I wouldn't think the curve is "unsafe".. For he just ordered one after 3 mirages
I ordered mine from my DZO. If you can not do that then call Rigging Innovations directly. Check out their FaceBook page. They do have some specials. US military get a 25% discount !
I choose safety over comfort & looks. I think I'll just stick to my Vector3 Micron. Skyhook, Magnetic Riser Covers, Semi-Stowless D-Bag. Curv maybe an option for those who don't want to wait 42 weeks for a Vector3.
