sducoach 0 #30 May 9, 2003 you and Chris need to talk to Dave. I know Dave P. and can't believe he'd set up your main for you without knotting it in and fingertraping. I never sew my main canopy toggles so that I am able to make adjustments as needed however............ Have Dave check your reserve toggles next time around.

Unstable 8 #32 May 9, 2003 I'm not going to let go of my toggles under canopy! Give me credit for that at least. All i meant to say concerning that is that after checks, i didn't apply any pressure on the brake lines or toggles until i began to set up for my landing. they just laid in my palm, as i grasped my risers. I apologize for the confusion. sds =========Shaun ========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It wasn't David's mistake, and he's taking my rig soon to work on that and a number of other things. I appreciate all the great advice though! This thread has been a productive one!sds=========Shaun ========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
