This procedure assures that every TEAR DROP 1 PIN has the correct loop length for a
good pack job and an easy ripcord pull. The CYPRES and/or VIGIL loop does not
stretch and allows the ripcord to slide more easily than a nylon loop would, even when
the reserve pilot chute is pulled firmly down on the container.
