    ModWing Bent?

    For those with experience with the ModWing, mine has a slight bend at the elbow. I started with the tall wing and it obviously worked - maybe I should have used to short wing? I would expect some give so as to not create too much stress on the shell, but is this everyone's experience? Will this still have enough contact with the belt to work as intended? Being plastic and under stress for hours a day, should I expect to replace it ever so often?

    I have had the same experience with the raven wing. I replace my wing after 7-8 months of carry.

    I remember reading they redesigned them because of the problem you're encountering. Might want to contact the maker and see if it's one of the original ones and do a swap.

    @Larry T, when you get the new one it would be nice to have pics for comparison.

    The Gen 2 is attached, the old one sitting above it. That one extra support rib makes all the difference.
