I have a SG Solo and I just sold my 5100 bag on my second pack to get a Sky Archer bag. I love the packs and they worked great for me over the last couple of months. Kurt's customer service is incredible. Recently though, I have upped my training weight to 70 lbs and I have had a few issues which I am trying to work through. When I increased my pack weight I need to bear down on the belt a pretty hard and the belt pulls go sideways on me. Kurt is sending me a fix involving Velcro for this problem. Does anyone have a picture of how this fix looks? I wish I could go without them, but I can't seem to on any of my packs.
That brings me to a second question. Although I have been working hard to get my middle section circumference smaller than my hip circumference, I have several more months of training to do so (ain't so easy at 52).. I have a flat back and the hip circumference dimension is a few inches smaller than my middle section. It seems getting my belt to not slide down under heavy weight is a problem. I know I will get razzed about just get the diet going, I am. I am not a pudge just about 15-20 lbs. up from where I should be. But because I can not get my pack waist belt to ride right I am having trouble training as hard as I want. Anyone have any ideas?
Just a side note I consider these to be my personal fit issues and not in anyway related to the pack. The SG pack is one fine product.
Thanks,
Ron
