Where does it say that the RWO quick releise hook complies with ISAF rule?

RWO say it does but since ISAF STILL haven't provided any guidlines to the rule we will just have to wait and see.  It appears though that all of the manufacturers are happy to say that their product complies with the new rule.......

From what I've heard, a lot of the quick-release systems are still not EU compliant.....

If it doesn't break it's too heavy; if it does it wasn't built right

For my 2p (and having used one a fair bit...)

I would go for the P&B made to measure. A little awkward to get in and out of but it's the only harness I have used and felt comfy in all day!

Have you finally got your Cherub afloat the Ian? Last time I saw you there was some experimentation with and RS700 mast I believe.....

Regards,

Paul

Where did you get that information from?  I have looked at the ISAF site but they have not yet published the minutes of the meeting where this was being discussed.  Do you have an contact on the inside?
