2. If the apex lines are on the inside of the upper lateral band, and the control line assembly is to the
outside of the lower lateral band and extended gores, the canopy is inverted through the skirt.
Remove an inversion through the skirt as follows:
NOTE
Take care not to pass the apex out through one of the canopy vents/slots.
a. Remove canopy from apex hook.
b. Pass apex down through the canopy and out the skirt between two adjacent suspension lines
(figure 4).
