NathanL100 0 #1 March 17, 2002 Has anyone heard of instances where the lines from the main catch on the top or exposed PC for the reserve on rigs like Reflex, Wings, Jav., etc...?Ah, shit I thought I was in Gear and Rigging, oops. I'll post it there tooJust keep your mind open and suck in the experience. And if it hurts, you know what? It's probably worth it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some manufacturers (Fliteline) offer CRW flaps that partially cover the poptop and help prevent snagged lines.-bill von Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kirils 1 #3 March 18, 2002 Yes it happens. I just had my Reflex modified by Bomber Mfg.They installed a "flapette" at the top of the container that prevents lines from snagging. Something like it could be installed on any pop-top I suspose.Skydiving is not a static excercise with discrete predictability... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
