Choosing Your PD Reserve
Selecting the correct reserve size is an important part of
configuring a skydiving system. Reserve choice should take

Reserve sizing and compatibility should always be confirmed
with an appropriately qualified rigger and checked against the
relevant container and canopy manufacturer specifications.
