Look for Misrouted Chest Straps<\/h2>\n

\"Threading<\/p>\n

Want to be a hero?<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Keep an eye on your friends\u2019 gear when they\u2019re getting ready to skydive or sitting in the plane.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It can be easy to misroute a chest strap when you\u2019re inexperienced, in a hurry, or just plain not paying attention, but this error can be caught with a careful inspection.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In other words: Don\u2019t be, and don\u2019t let your friends be, this guy…<\/p>\n

Chest strap undone – AAD fire – video by AirAffairSkydiving<\/a>
\"RIGHT!<\/p>\n

Correctly routed<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Here is the correct chest strap routing, strap threaded in and our of the friction adapter (vertical bar) and excess stowed away tidily.<\/p>\n

\"WRONG!
\"WRONG!<\/p>\n

Misrouted Chest<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Here are two examples of misrouted chest straps, which could result in falling out of the harness on deployment (talk about ruining your day!).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Check it!<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not sure if your chest strap is routed correctly, try to pull it loose from the center. If it\u2019s routed properly, the friction adapter will push the webbing against the square ring and it won\u2019t loosen unless you lift the square ring. If it\u2019s misrouted, it will loosen.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Safety Tip<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Should vigilance fail and you end up in freefall with a misrouted chest strap (!!), hook your left hand around your right main lift web as you deploy to hold your harness on. Hopefully, this last tidbit is one you\u2019ll never need!<\/p>\n
