Slider Question

Recommended Posts

Another issue to consider is that if your chest strap has a folded over piece on the end and it is stowed by an elastic band...if the slider does stay in place and you have a cutaway, theres a good chance that you will hang from your canopy. I just tried my chest strap. the folded over end will not come out of the elastic when very heavy weight is put on it.


Cheers,
Travis

Do the cutaway cables stay attached to the slider when you pull them?



yes. You cannot pull the cable out. I'm pretty firm with mine and no problems in over 500 jumps on the system.

hey, check this out..... this is a total ghetto removable slider evil rigging made for me (nicknitro) it was like the $30 dollar job that came from a base rigger, oh boy. it was a pain in the ass to remove, first you had to collapse it or there was too much pressure on it to pull the cutaways then you had to release one side at a time, see if you can figure it out from the pics. like a wingsuit cutaway. then there was like 5-7 minutes to pack the blasted thing. but it worked and made me want a "real" one! we have it hanging on the wall at the DZ now with "evil rigging removable slider version 1.0" written on it.


I hate that thing!
