Reverse riser check.
Mucho BASE team discovered this stitching failure that could result in a riser release upon loading. This was from wear and tear failure. Not manufacturer related. A hard assymetric opening.
A large 3ring system has a load reduction of 10/10/2.
This scenario would be 10/2/2. But they are minirings
Which I think is 7/7/2 in correct orientation. So
7/2/2. 1200kg/7/2/2= 43kg on the loop. as opposed to 12kg on a 12G, 100kg loading.
take care,
Mucho BASE,

Wow. Thanks for putting that out. I am going to check mine right now.

There risers a waaaaay out of specs... (attached).

Those files address different problems. The good riser was in spec for its age.
Take care,
