Blacksheep Rigging Service Bulletin
This was brought to my attention this morning. I encourage jumpers that have rigs with black hardware from all manufacturers to follow the same procedure. This is, and has been, an industry wide issue with this type of hardware in both the skydiving and base jumping world.

This is most importantly a reminder to everyone to do thorough and regular gear checks. This particular wear is not obvious at first glance while the riser is assembled. It could be overlooked during a normal pre jump gear check.
