Para5-0 0 #1 October 1, 2007 We are in the process of switching over tandems to soft links. I have read the forums, just curious what is being used out there? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #2 October 2, 2007 Hard links. I see no advantage to softlinks in that area, and they will be more prone to damage.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #3 October 2, 2007 On the one hand, soft links will reduce weight. On the other hand, I worry about slider grommets coming down far enough to jam steering toggles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

koppel 5 #5 October 6, 2007 Soft Links Personally. And the slider on the Jyro 300 I jump have #8 grommets and I set the slider behind my head so no issue with getting stuck on the toggles. We jump onto the beach and keep a close eye on the gear. Go with what you are comfortable with and maintain it well and it will not matter which you choose. I like my canopy... ...it lets me down.
