If you are not using your Multi-2 System be sure to connect your 

bridle ONLY to the main attachment point, and not the Multi-2 

attachment point. 

 

Brake Settings 

 

Your canopy will come with two pre-installed brake settings. The deeper 
brake setting is designed and tuned for use in the slider off environment, 
while the shallow brake setting is designed to be used with a slider on higher 
airspeed jumps and/or where object strike is not a concern. Educate yourself 
about the different brake settings, their applications, and 
strengths/weaknesses before jumping your BASE parachute.  
 

Sliders 

 

Apex BASE offers sliders in three sizes (measured in inches): 
 

1. 17 x 24 : For canopies sized 200 sq./ft. and under.  
2. 20 x 24:  For canopies sized 210 - 250 sq./ft. 
3. 23 x 28:  For canopies sized 260 sq./ft. and above.
