freestyleleigh 0 #1 June 9, 2011 Hi, I am wondering if the links for a reserve belong to the canopy or the harness? We are swapping reserves and the system was purchased complete from Aerodyne. It has reserve soft links. Thanks in advance for any helpful reply. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

irishrigger 32 #3 June 9, 2011 i agree,they belong to the reserve. if you order a new canopy for example from PD you are given the choice f you want french links or soft links.same as any other manufacturer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gowlerk 2,246 #4 June 9, 2011 When you buy a new canopy, it will come with links. When you buy a new container, it will not come with links. That should be clear enough.

riggerrob 643 #8 June 11, 2011 Parachute Industry Standard 102 says that canopy manufacturers are responsible for supplying the canopy, suspension lines, slider, connector links, connector link covers and manual. If the canopy is round, it will probably also have a diaper sewn on. Everything else (pilot chute, bridle, deployment bag, risers, toggles, etc.) is supplied by the container manufacturer.
