Bruce must have had some great design input. Here is the mail I just sent him (slightly edited):
[I]Bruce, you know how you order something, sight unseen but expecting the best, wait with excitement and anticipation for it to arrive and when the big day comes....you end up let down or happy but not completely so because there are some issues or things just aren't quite as expected?
Well not in this case. I am completely 100% satisfied and pleased. The system is better than I imagined. I found myself sounding like a teenager, exclaiming "oh wow...NEAT...who'd a thunk about that...." and on and on.
My big worry was that, due to my balance issues from my stroke I would never be able to use a backpack again and be limited to my car. My Lowe Trekker AW (sp) was too unyielding and heavy so was unusable. It threw me all over the place balance wise.
I took the P3 out fully loaded up for a one mile hike, including up and down a couple of hills and it was like the pack was carrying itself if that makes sense. It hugged my back with almost zero sway, the shoulder belts were comfortable where they passed under my arms, the hip belt rested on my hips without rubbing, it just FIT! And no balance problems, everything felt centered.
The Rpt P3 is the answer to a prayer. Bravo!
Thanks,
