Standard "free options" on the Infinity include collapsible main pilot chute with hackey handle, RSL and polycarbonate hook knife. 

VSE has added a new standard comfort option and safety feature on the Infinity. Contoured leg pads and a freefly friendly tuck tabs on the hackey and monkey fist pilot chute handles are the latest and greatest additions to this freefly friendly rig!

The contoured leg pads have no binding tape showing on the inside of the leg pads meaning they aren't going to cause any pinching and eliminate any discomfort.

"Say bye-bye to that uncomfortable “pinch” you might get from those standard leg pads with the binding tape on the outside. With Infinity’s new contoured leg pads the seam is internal making it way more comfortable in the crotch. This modification was sort of a no-brainer once it was applied. Kind of like "why didn’t they always do that?!" Sometimes the best ideas are the simplest ones." - Jeff Provenzano

A few things to know about the new Infinity MARD:

• IT'S FREE. One of the philosophies at VSE has always been that safety should not be an added charge. The Infinity MARD is installed into each new custom rig at no added expense.
• In order to create a MARD that could be pin checked and also be the most dependable MARD available, Infinity relocated the AAD window to the backpad of the rig.
• During the MARD testing program, VSE had a 100% capture rate on each cutaway. This means there wasn't a single premature release during any malfunction. 
• VSE has left the final configuration up to the owner of the rig. Every Infinity will be built and shipped with the MARD components and the owner of the rig will be able to configure it however they want -- MARD setup, just an RSL, or good old-fashioned ripcord-only deployment of the reserve.

Functionality

VSE wanted to create a MARD that they could say with confidence WILL work when it’s called upon. With a mechanical MARD, they’ve changed the thinking process, and the point at which the “decision” is made to deploy via MARD or reserve pilot chute. VSE added a “trigger tab” that securely locks the MARD to the reserve freebag bridle when it is extracted during an RSL/MARD deployment. This also allows VSE to have a VERY low release force from the MARD in the event of a total malfunction or low speed reserve deployment, unlike most aerodynamic MARDs that require a sacrificial tack of thread to help them stay attached at higher speeds, but may prevent the reserve pilot chute from doing it’s job at low speeds. Because of this, VSE feels that they have the most “transparent” MARD available when considering how it integrates with commonly taught emergency procedures (meaning it acts more like a standard RSL when considering EP’s).

The Infinity MARD consists of a trigger tab with a stainless steel locking pin on one leg, a grommet in the other leg, and a loop attached to the reserve bridle. During packing, the trigger tab is inserted into a pocket on a sub flap, then the loop is passed through the grommet and the pin is inserted through the loop.

Partial Malfunction

During a partial malfunction/RSL deployment, the RSL pulls the reserve pin, and extracts both legs of the MARD from the sub flap, locking the RSL to the reserve bridle and preventing a premature release during deployment. 

Total Malfunction

During a total malfunction, the leg with the grommet is free to move, but the trigger tab holds the locking pin stationary so when the bridle pulls on the loop, it pulls the grommet away from the pin, releasing the loop.
