I’ve done over 10,000 jumps so I’ve no idea why you’re calling this bloke an idiot he did what he had to do and he landed safely

Why does YT keep giving me malfunctions and cutaways to watch.. I mean holly d*rn, I've had enough, but new videos just keep popping up and somehow I just have to click another one. First plan was to watch some skydiving videos since I'm thinking of doing AFF next year, but somehow here I am watching induced anxiety videos instead lol. Glad you managed a safe landing btw. I saw a horrible reserve malfunction on YT - the skydiver pulled his reserve after getting a pilot chute in..trailing or what's it called again? I'm not quite sure what was wrong with his reserve (a knot?) but he was falling down. Luckily he didn't cutaway his main and managed to manually pull the bag out and somehow it deployed, but had twisted lines. So he had 2 out, reserve useless and main twisted lines - it was the most horrible thing I saw - makes me sick whenever I replay the video in my mind. Luckily he managed a safe landing. As a matter of fact, lemme search for the video and link it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpPJf4qYgtuGjs0

That was done amazingly. It's gotta be hard to make that decision, even when you know you absolutely should. It's trusting your life to your absolute last resort.

NEVER cutaway a good canopy. Kick the twists out.

Nice job hanging on to the cutaway line or whatever the heck it's called. Its good to see this. I was flat on my back unable to reach my brakes during my malfunction and cut away. The DZ crew said nothing was wrong with my chute. I didn't jump there ever since.

@NeoMorphUK Жыл бұрын

Twisted lines suck because you feel you can untangle them eventually and you don’t want to go hunting for your cutaway canopy (they ain’t cheap). So good decision there. I had one canopy that was so badly tangled that it was forcing my head forward so I couldn’t see what was up. Wasn’t a square though… was a para-commander round.

If I had been in the same situation, I would probably have opted to stay with my discarded parachute instead of going for the airfield. The price of a taxi is a lot cheaper than a new canopy.

Yes, you are an idiot. On my very first solo at 14,500, I pulled at about 4,500. My line twist was so severe that I could not even raise my head enough to look at it. But I remained calm, because my instructors -- just hours ago -- taught me how to handle it: you grab the lines FROM THE BOTTOM, and PULL THEM APART -- just like as a kid when you tangled up the chain on a swing.

@MrAllAmerican1000 Жыл бұрын

When wing suiting, and you have line twists on opening, as long as it is "there and square", you can use your wings to untwist you. Look up and figure out which way you need to twist, figure out which direction you're facing and which way the wind is coming from, figure out which wing you need to stick out to get you to spin in the direction that you need to spin. When you stick your arm out, you'll begin to twist, when you rotate 180°, then stick the other arm out, because it will keep the spin going. It'll get you out of line twists in a Wingsuit so easily! I call it the weathervane method. 😁Also...from the squirrel people, if you have a normal, soft opening, immediately look up and grab your risers and try to keep yourself from twisting up. That has helped me immensely! I have not had line twists since I started doing that. WinX 210 (cuz I'm old and phat)

@jbfrost02 2 жыл бұрын

@@amus835 it is in your control. Several factors are involved. How you pack your parachute will affect the opening. Having proper body position when you deploy your parachute has a large impact on whether you have line twists or not. This is why I called myself an idiot in the video. I knew my body position and stability were horrible (while wearing a wingsuit which exaggerates mistakes), and I deployed my parachute anyways, thus causing the line twist. If you watch the horizon as I deploy my parachute, you can see I was turning. Line twist are easily dealt with and nothing that should keep you from getting into one of the funnest things you'll ever do. I just didn't kick long enough each time to clear the twist. Plus later I realized I could have reached the risers just above the twists and just spun myself out of them very easily. Each make and model of parachute opens differently. For my parachute I jump all the time when I'm not windsurfing, I prefer one that opens slow and soft. Some people prefer parachutes that open quicker. It's all preference. Starting out you'll have large beginner parachutes that are soft very slow and give you plenty of time to do everything. After awhile you'll get bored it'll take so long to get down. Anyways get into and your instructors will give you all the tools and confidence to deal with any issues you might have. Blue skies

In todays technology I guess you could fit a gps locator to the riser? So you can find you wing back easier. They are so small now.
