Sky hook static line?

Recommended Posts

I was just reading the article on Mr. Booth's latest invention. There's a lot of folk's out there who are a lot more knowledgeable than I in terms of rigging. I was just wondering what you think. It seems like it would be nice to have on a low cut away situation. I'm just wondering if you pulled your reserve only (without cutting away) or if your cypress fired, would the skyhook release properly (every time)? (I suppose testing would answer this.) Can you see any problems that might occur with this system? Steve1

Hi, the point you mention was one of the main things which had to be solved to make the skyhook work (and I bet they did some testing ;) )
On the website of the RWS:
http://www.relativeworkshop.com/sales/pdt_skyhook.html you find some of the details. There's a couple of threads in
these forums
as well.
Don't underestimate your ability to screw up!
