Think being ejected out the top of the rig. Rigs aren't designed to retain you in that position; I know most of our students would go sailing out of our Telesis harnesses without too much trouble.



That's going to be really rough for that student that gets unstable, gets in a near head down position and then has a premature deployment!

If we switched the riser attachment point from their shoulders to their hips - it would indeed.
