Jumper's safety kit
Skydiving gear is the equipment used for parachute jumping from aircraft.
The essential components include the main parachute, a reserve chute, the container system that holds both, a harness, and an altimeter.
An automatic activation device deploys the reserve if the jumper fails to do so at a safe altitude.
She checked her skydiving gear twice before the jump.
