Section 2: Equipment • Chapter 1 - Description
SUMMARIZING THE ADVANTAGES OF THE SIGMA TANDEM
1. It takes fewer steps, with fewer potential errors, to close the main container.
2. Accidentally snagging the drogue bridle will not open the container.
3. Out-of-sequence deployments are eliminated.
4. Its center-of-main-container drogue connection gives a more “natural” and comfortable drogue-fall position than
other Tandem systems.
5. The drogue release ripcords are automatically retracted after use, or accidental snagging, so that they are always
where they should be, cannot be lost, and don’t have to be stowed after pulling.
6. It has two redundant, fail-safe drogue release ripcords, one on the right, and one on the left.
7. The drogue release/container opening pin is “locked” until you throw the drogue, preventing accidental high
openings.
8. No more time consuming untwisting of drogue kill line during packing. Kill lines can be easily replaced in the field.
9. You still get a more or less normal deployment if the kill line breaks, and you don’t lose your drogue.
10. It’s improved deployment bag means less canopy damage.
11. It has an improved student harness, which means safer and more comfortable students, and their positive word-
of-mouth advertising will increase your tandem business.
12. Skyhook RSL with intergrated Collin’s Lanyard.
13. It has tuck-tab main, reserve, and riser covers.
14. Clear plastic windows make reserve pin checks and Cypres operation easier.
15. It has “Wonderfoam” padding throughout.
THE SIGMA IS MADE TO THE HIGHEST QUALITY STANDARDS IN THE INDUSTRY BY
THE RELATIVE WORKSHOP.
