    what can be done about the (tow line ?) getting wraped around the air cyl and bending it .done this twice in the last couple years
    we have two chutes
    mabe a small ribbon 1 ply duct tape around tow line up close to chutes so it would tear into on deployment keeping it away fron air cyl ?


    any help?

    Not sure what your exact problem is?? Which air cylinder is getting bent?

    I tape my chute lines to the wheelie bar to keep them from hitting the wiring for the record button if this helps.
