Safety pin with “ Breathe “ brass metal Stamp… not just before the jump, but a mental reminder to simply, breathe ~ A skydiving closing pin is a curved or straight piece of stainless steel metal sewn onto the pilot chute bridle that locks the parachute container shut until deploymentWhen the skydiver throws out the pilot chute, the pilot chute catches air and pulls the closing pin out of the closing loop.
Canopy Release: Once the pin is pulled, the container flaps spring open, and the pilot chute extracts the deployment bag and parachute. I collect and have been collecting pins from retired parachutes. surprisingly hard to find used haha
