I am just as active, if not slightly more and that is why I haven't gone the way of the pump. I noticed some people said that it doesn't get in the way because you can get harnesses or disconnect it, but I think that kind of defeats the point of having it in the first place no? I windsurf so if I hit the water really hard and had a pump, something bad would probably happen.

If you're playing basketball and someone rushes you or it gets caught or if you eat it on your motorcycle...it's probably going to cause trouble yeah?

I try to stay as close to natural as possible so I say if you're healthy and don't mind the slight inconveniences that come with injections, then stay off the pump. The alternative is of course to do a trial period thing like someone suggested and see how it fits your lifestyle.

Personally, I don't like the idea of having anything inside my body that could be ripped out, but I'm irrationally paranoid and haven't really researched the pumps because I'm quite content as is.

Let us know what you do though eh? ^_^
