Cause of my cutaway (I posted video 6 month ago)

Recommended Posts

Hi guys, some of you remember I posted video of my cutaway some 6 months ago. Today we know what happened and I want to share it with you because I want others to be aware of such small issue that can cause cutaway.

Combination of Vortex 2 toggles and new risers created problem.
Toggles had loose fit into new toggle keepers so while main was deploying toggle unstowed and caused line twist and cutaway.

I noticed that toggles are fitting loosely so I added some paper inside toggle keepers, tested it and it never happened again.

I asked my rigger to solve the problem.

Thats it, I just wanted to share this with all of you in case someone came upon similar issue.
