INNER CONTAINER & INSTALLATION

 OF THE RESERVE IN THE HARNESS

Depending on the intended use, two different inner containers are available for the 

KRISIS KARRE

:

• Standard flat container for harnesses with integrated container compartment
• Inner container for external containers and front containers
Both  containers  are  designed  as  pocket  containers with  separate  compartments  for  the  lines  and 
the canopy, so that the canopy is released only after the lines have been stretched. This ensures a 
controlled  opening  of  the  canopy  and  reduces  the  risk  of  the  reserve  becoming  entangled  in  the 
glider, especially when deploying in SAT-like rotations.

Inside the 

KORTEL DESIGN

 pocket container, the canopy is protected from dirt in the best possible 

way, and unintentional release of the line bundles is reliably excluded.
In addition, 

KORTEL DESIGN

 inner containers are equipped with fabric-protected rubbers diameter 

3 mm, which can be easily replaced as they age. Closure rubbers without protection have often led 
to accidental deployments in the past.

The deployment tests have shown that pulling out the first third of the container requires the most 
energy,  as  the  inner  container  often  gets  caught  in  the  container  compartment  during  this  first 
phase of the deployment. The very flat and in the front area conical shape with a small cross-section 
of the 

KORTEL DESIGN

 standard flat container counters this danger in the best possible way. The 

tests  prove  that  the  flat  container  can  be  pulled  out  of  the  reserve  compartment  in  the  harness 
much better and with less effort than a cube-shaped container - even if the latter has a significantly 
smaller volume.
Thanks to its centered, triangular pull tab, the 

KORTEL DESIGN

 flat container will slide out of the 

harness even if the deployment handle is intuitively pulled upward instead of outward.
The alternative 

KORTEL DESIGN

 front inner container has the conventional round shape, which is 

ideal for front outer containers.
