Choosing the Right Rubber Bands for Your Rig
Selecting the appropriate size rubber bands is crucial for safe and reliable parachute deployment. If the bands are too tight, they can cause uneven line release, and if they’re too loose, the lines may slip out too early.

How Often Should You Replace Parachute Rubber Bands?
Rubber bands naturally wear out over time due to UV exposure, stretching, and frequent packing. It’s essential to inspect your stows before packing and replace any worn or brittle rubber bands to prevent breakage during deployment.
