Abstract
A roller assisted low friction reefing grommet that facilitates movement of a reefing line through the grommet. The roller assisted low friction reefing grommet includes a grommet ring having a roller therein that reduces friction of the line traveling through the grommet. A line channeling guide is formed within the interior of the grommet ring by a low friction material positioned on either side of the grommet, with a channel formed by the line channeling guide and the roller for receiving and guiding the reefing line.
