Slider down brake settings for slider up jump
After watching a video on skydivingmovies.com of an antenna jump with a lineover where the guy used WLO toggles to fix it; the worry of a line over became more prominent to me. I don't have WLO toggles but I do have a hook knife.

Just a little worried on how quickly I can get my hook knife out and cut my brake line. Would it be possible to have the steering lines go through the slider grommets but not the ring (Stow them like slider down jumps but on the slider up setting)?

Then if u had a line over all you would have to do is shove the toggle through the slider grommet (The slider should come down though with a lineover - right?)

just think what will happen when your toggle fires and wraps around your not yet descended slider.

get WLO's and put the silly questions to rest.

In a line over type scenario slider up, if you don't feel comfortable being able to take your knife out and use it properly then you shouldn't be jumping. Sliders don't always slide down in line over mals, snd shoving it through might prove to be way more difficult than just cutting the thing. what if you shove it through and it goes between a few other lines trapping it. Oh and by the way, you just pounded in three sentences ago. Unsure
