Once I get some experience with my setup, I'm planning on writing up a thorough review on my thoughts of the xop gear. So far I really like everything.
I use the 550 cord (gutted) Front of my lone wolf and McNett camoform rubberized tape an the perimeter of it. The McNett tape is real good on other stands too anywhere you might accidentally bang a harness buckle on. Old bike innertubes (free at the bike shop) for my buckles on all the straps.
