Are many people using a rubber band stow on the back of their slider (mesh/sail) to take a bite of brake line, in order to try and prevent line-overs? I used to jump a Sabre like that (skydiving, of course) as well as an old Challenger accuracy canopy with long, sloppy brake lines.
Those people who ARE using this system... how's it working out? Does it slow openings on mesh slider jumps? Affect opening performance on sail slider jumps? Would you take it off the NRGB?
It just seems to be a simple but effective way of controlling the brake lines during slider-up packing and deployment, but... I haven't tried it on a BASE jump, yet!
Thanks,
Mark.
