billvon 3,111 #9 May 18, 2005 If the tersh rings are ever actually used, won't they be loaded the wrong way? Looks like the load might be taken by the binding tape stitching right above the ring rather than the type-12 that holds the ring captive. Or are they for something else?

OK, so it's sort of a one-time-use tersh attach? I guess that makes sense if the tersh is used to back up a regular reserve. >unlike some 'removable' D-Ring set-ups that are sometimes used >on standard sport harness systems. Yeah, I rarely see an aftermarket tersh ring attachement that looks well designed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess that makes sense if the tersh is used to back up a regular reserve.< Quote Opps...Left out a line on my 1st reply, It's attachment points for Flags / Rucks etc. as Hook said. Not tersh attachments.... BUT..that does give my an idea! > Yeah, I rarely see an aftermarket tersh ring attachement that looks well designed. < Quote It's not the rings that cause me concern...it's where people put them, and what they use them for. I've cautioned several demo jumpers that had the removable rings threaded through their harness just above the Box-X...with quite a load mounted on them. The Harness was never meant to have something pulling against the stiching like that. A high G opening 'could' seperate the whole harness. ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
