Thanks to the name, two sets have already been returned to the owner, one set even came back from Norway!

QCan I easily use the Dinxx to put the riggers on or to remove them from an 8+?

The height of the Dinxx slings makes it easy to work on the 8+. When putting the two parts of the 8+ together, it is better use a third sling at the joint. Each part of the 8+ rests on one of the straps of the sling.
