In light of recent incidents I suggest we all test and get used to using our primary safety systems.
It needs to be instinctive (Like gear changing or pulling the hand brake of your car , you dont need to look for it )....... and for that to be the case we all need to be familiar of its position so in the event of the unforeseen you just yank it !!!

good idea ,having said that from my own pesonal experience when it all goes to crap the time it takes to clear your mind and go for the so called "safety" release is an eternity and by then it's probably too late .My advice is "safety week " keep plenty of room and time between you and disaster.
A couple of years ago I had to punch out and bing, the safety line snapped when under load and kite ran away from me, the red line looked ok but it wasn't, so testing is a good idea.
