Attach each riser to the
shoulder attachment points by
making a Lark’s knot ( loop to
loop connection ). Use the larg-
est bridle loop ends.
Fastening the risers to the harness via a Lark’s head knot connection.
We recommend using
“split” risers to guaran-
ty a clean reserve para-
chute deployment.
Fastening the risers to the harness with a set of 6mm square Maillons Rapides®
Assemble everything correctly.
Make sure for the risers not to be
longer than one another.
Tighten each connection securely.
