gulaz 1 #1 October 11, 2005 I just bought a used Javelin (J-4 DOM Apr 93) and it came with a freebag/pilot chute. I dont have a square reserve to put in it right now, and was just going to get it packed with a round. Does a new reserve bridle to attach the apex to the pilot chute need to be purchased? Or can a rigger make one. The bridle is of course currently part of the freebag. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #2 October 11, 2005 Javelin bridle for a round reserve is made of 1 inch wide, Type 4 tape, roughly 6 feet long. It is sewn with E Thread. While Sun Path will cheerfully mail you a new bridle, it is probably quicker and simpler to ask your friendly, neighborhood FAA Master Rigger (or CSPA Rigger B) [Aiden Walters at Eden North?] to sew you a new bridle. Ideally, he has a genuine Javelin bridle to enable him to make a close copy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
