no footnotes date March 2012 ref improve date March 2012 The Skyhook is a safety feature on parachute systems. It is an advanced type of reserve static line RSL , which functions to automatically deploy a reserve parachute after a malfunctioning main parachute has been cut away . Where the traditional RSL only pulls the reserve pin initiating the reserve parachute deployment sequence after a cut away , the Skyhook goes further, extracting the reserve parachute from its deployment bag using the malfunctioning main parachute as a super pilot chute . The Skyhook system is viable because it does not interfere with normal reserve deployment as long as the hook portion does not rip or tear the canopy when no main parachute has been deployed. The key component in the system, from which the Skyhook derives its name, is a cantilevered hook on the reserve bridle. If a malfunctioning main parachute applies more pull force on the bridle than the reserve pilot chute, then the main parachute will remain hooked onto the reserve bridle. If the reserve pilot chute exerts more pull force on the bridle than the main parachute, then the main parachute will unhook and the reserve pilot chute will deploy the reserve parachute normally. The primary advantage of the Skyhook system over traditional RSLs is a higher ... of altitude.
