Tandem Toggle Lock ... quasi-incident

Recommended Posts

Quote

SO by insuring the toggle is snapped in place this malfunction wont occur? 2nd Question this malfunction was caused by the packer shoving the toggle past the eyelet or on opening the toggle pulling itself up under the eyelet?


Direct cause: a packer that makes a mistake.
ROOT CAUSE: A design that allows the situation to occur. A more uniform stiff toggle design resolves this, regardles of packer skills.
Using your droque to gain stability is a bad habid.

Also in case you jump a sport rig!!!

No the packer did not shote the stiffener past the loop. UPT has since redesigned the riser to make snap replacement easier. In the past it was not unheard of for the toggle snap to break off after just a few jumps with an aggressive TM yank. Tough to justify repeatedly buying a $300 pair of risers after 10 jumps.
