Understood WV,

I have had a Ranger of years and it is a snap to unzip my pockets and throw out those weight pouches myself. In an emergency would I grab that ripcord? Not sure, but I frequenty am taking my weight pouches out on a SS just for practice (I do other practice techniques at my SS, take off mask, get out of BCD, breath off of of my SS1 etc).

I do know for a fact that the ripcord system works very well. However, it is somewhat time consuming to rethread the rip cord system. Not hard, but takes time.
