Default Super Chutes/ Winch & High Start Chutes

I've recently acquired a great durable winch chute. May I suggest checking out " Super Chute"!
It's made from light weight strong material, and the chute has a strong one piece steel ring! It's suitable for those powerful heavy duty custom built winches!!!

Regards,

Keith

It serves a few purposes.

1. It puts drag on the towline so it slips off the towhook easier (assuming you use a standard towhook and not a releasable one.)

2. It drifts the towline downwind (back towards you)

3. It makes the towline easier to see on the ground and also when it releases from the plane.

4. Gives you something to hold onto when you stretch the highstart, if you're using one
