Gear and Hybrids

Recommended Posts

Would like to hear from Master Riggers or gear makers on this one.

Do you feel that there can be any long term negative effects on gear from hybrids? I specifically refer to freefly 'draggers' who pull the belly flyers down via chest straps or harness.

I'm not a rigger, but I have an opinion here as well.

I think that jumpers who plan on doing lots of hybrid jumps should be more dilligent in their gear maintenance. Check the stitching on the webbing of the chest straps and leg strap attachment points.

Also. I prefer the wide chest strap for this application.

Drop a bug in the R & D Masters' ear. (Bill Booth) Maybe he'll come up with a reinforcement for the hybrid application and/or something similar to the way they are reinfocing mini risers.
