My First Cutaway - Jump 1,242

[@patricioelosua5886]

Damn! This happened to me yesterday while doing the AFF Stage 4, was pretty frightening but sort of comforting knowing that I'm able to act in pressure situations. Glad everything was ok mate 🤙🏻

[@djglennyboy]

well done you for remaining calm and remembering your training.

A very empowering experience. Hope you stuck with the sport!

[@jperiodchapin]

I had a C line over malfunction my 37th jump. I was so far off the DZ I landed in a residential backyard. It matured me as a junior jumper pretty quickly. Good for you staying calm through it.

[@ThanosStamatopoulos]

Well at least you didn't have to look up for your main!

[@pccoder]

well done. a little time on the main as would be expected, and then you dumped it when you realized it was a lost cause...and didn't eat up too much altitude in the process. great job.

[@SkydiveVibes]

Chris Kirkman agree that was well done!

[@duanemckitterick3450]

Text book. Identify, diagnose and recovery. Well done. You took time to identify the problem but didn’t burn up too much altitude before making your decision.

[@doggonemess1]

And you landed next to your primary chute! Awesome!

[@SkydiveVibes]

Hey Jeff. Could I reuse this video for educational propose on FB? I'll link your channel out.

[@Sneaky1]

Nice save on the handles.

[@janstain9320]

he is very lucky he can collect chute back too

[@michaelpal7641]

Line twists-Caused by unstable body position at pilot chute deployment. Depending on altitude, you can kick them out-but yours looked severe and "non-landable". Good job on making the cut-away decision.

[@tellurye]

I get that, but he looked very stable at deployment. Do you know what else could have caused that line twist?

[@michaelpal7641]

@@tellurye Tough to call with that video footage-Any twist of your body throwing out the pilot chute-example-You throw pilot chute with your right hand-and its not "out" at a 90 degree but your arm comes forward on the throw-you taking your body into a turn-I know because I have an old video on VHS (yes, I'm that old) showing this. Deployment bag "has" to come off your back and out of the rig straight up and off your back. A throwing motion, any throwing motion of the pilot chute (I was taught) has to be executed "on heading". I had a tendency to look, throw and turn-and yes.I had line twists like he did-But-I learned to either kick them out-or twist the risers in the opposite direction. There's a good vid here on You Tube that shows someone doing just that. Hope this answered your question.

[@michaelpal7641]

@@tellurye Here's the video I was referencing with regards to line twists: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqvUhWCcia93p6c Also, a high performance canopy (elliptical) I believe-just begs for line twists if not "deployment on heading" and deploying in a stable position. Tried a Stilleto canopy once-it wasn't really my cup of tea. My main was 220 Fury, and then a 190 Sabre-both rigs with a 170 Reserve. Never really caught the "Swoop" craze. I was more into small RW groups and accuracy. I can land on a dime and give you .09 cents change back:))

[@benbazy9238]

@@michaelpal7641 The link to your video has nothing to do with this video here. Your's shows a stable canopy, this cat was in a down plane.

Good job and you got your main back! ;)

[@galt820]

Hopefully he got a ride back after landing off too. Small treks while carrying one canopy is bad enough.

[@kd6mtw]

What was that you called out after during the reserve deployment.. I might guess it's your riggers name. Congrats on your first cutaway, you owe beer!

[@Cuentaderecuerdosmios]

I'm really scared while watching this video

[@djglennyboy]

such a cool video,, quite scary for a minute there though!! I did my aff level 2 last week,, be a while till i get to your level. good job, well done.

[@SkydiveHake]

That other dudes jumpsuit really is ‘kick-ass’

[@Paiadakine]

At first it looked like line twist no big deal but then you can hear the wind pickup. Great job!

[@garretttye6038]

yeah you're not getting line twists out in a spin.

[@wildeyestudios5]

Your ep was spot on

[@justinvonderheyde3150]

At least you were able to easily recover your main.

[@stag3t-muspsa910]

at least you didn't meet the POPE....

[@mgphotography3074]

One of the advantages of skyhook....reserve free bag stay with the main :)

[@9fifty1]

I guess I never knew that.. That is nice!

[@mgphotography3074]

@@9fifty1 if the riggers red seal thread through the holes in the lexan covers of the skyhook remain intact after the cutaway (in a reserve activation due to a total malfunction it had to break easly) , it prevents the red skyhook lanyard that pull out the reserve freebag from container to slip away from the skyhook and the freebag remain attached to the main canopy thanks to that locking knot (of course if the rigger follows the manual istructions and do his pack job correctly) . Just a single thread but do is job...and no more searches :) Take a look to this video at 2.25 kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6G2oIyjhdKUfM0

[@amaerilderimfrost7677]

I thought you should pick out something to eat from an inner pocket, after that cutaway!

[@Alexagnick]

Do anybody know whether or not your ADD will fire if you dont get that reserve out on time? I'd imagine if you're too low itll get triggered in a second or 2.

[@game1boy1007]

Yeah, if your going fast enough it will even fire if your reserve is already out, not doing anything offcourse.

[@MrElementleader]

What kind of main was that? Sabre / Safire possibly?

[@tarajoyce3598]

Nice find!

[@jimfarrell8662]

No big deal had 3 streamers 3 line over and 1 total at 500 jumps. Just chop it dude the sport is what it is.

[@graydoswanna7124]

I'm going for my aff in august, I'm 16. I'm really pumped and excited. I'm not scared or anything like that! Any pointers or tips i maybe should know?? Cheers.

[@ggjggdghf8417]

GRAYDOS WANNA just have fun

[@pccoder]

yes, you aren't invincible. being scared is a good thing, without a little fear you end up doing something stupid. I broke my back with attitude. have a great time (I know you will), but don't forget that the most important thing on a jump is to assure that you get to do one again. Blue skies.

[@graydoswanna7124]

yea I'm so excited ! have a good one :)

[@skydivertyler]

What country do you live in? Wondering because I'll be 17 in a few days and here in 'Murica you have to be 18 to jump... t'was originally 16 with parental consent, but when I was 15 they made it so you have to be 18. Blue skies on your first jump!

[@Cashmeister96]

Yeah if you have a cut away try not to drop the handles I did on my first cut away last consol and found out how expensive the handles are lol.

[@bullhippo9023]

Do you recover your main when it is cut away?

[@emrebekmez845]

how often do you guys have to cut away ? I will start my AFF course soon but these videos scare me to be honest :D

[@galt820]

On an individual basis cutaways are pretty rare and aren't that big of a deal 99.9% of the time as long as you know what you are doing. Just make sure to pay special attention to EP's in your ground school and practice all of them before every jump even after you finish your AFF. I know D license instructors that still practice their EP's. This guy made 1241 jumps before having to cut away. They are more of a hassle having to deal with finding and re-rigging your main and paying for a reserve repack.

[@VladimirGluten47]

@@galt820 who packs reserves?

[@skydiverclassc2031]

@@VladimirGluten47 Reserves are madated to be packed by riggers licensed by the FAA. It's not an easy course, because there are many requirements to inspect and repack the reserve and inspecting the container. I'm not a reserve packer, but I do check with one when he/she is done, just to keep up on the condition.

[@skydiverclassc2031]

I had three by 650 jumps (two by unstoppable spins like this one, and one where the canopy ripped). On the other hand, I knew someone who went 30+ years and thousands of jumps before his first (successful) reserve ride.

Hey guys, what happen if u deploy your reserve before your main?! Will it work ?

[@Dionisio181]

Deploy your reserve before deploy your main no problem, just will have to buy a new reserve pilot chute and free bag, new reserve handle if you trew it. Now, if you have a main malfunction and you deploy your reserve before to cutaway your main then pray!

[@SRA349]

I would have a heart attack

[@JPBrasca]

Great video, what dropzone is this?

[@kvarnerinfoTV]

I had first on my 7th jump, then on 106 and last one was on jump number 478 I think and close call at around jump number 600. It was not my fault any of it. First cutaway...pack job issue, I was noob, guy helped me to pack. Second my brake line snapped. Third, toggle fire, equipment issue. Fourth, issue with my left toggle returned, almost cutaway. Issue solved by strengthening stowing pocket.

[@TheHapton]

Buddy if you didn’t notice your lines and Velcro were on their way out you may wanna pay closer attention.

[@game1boy1007]

What is toggle fire

@@game1boy1007 when your toggle unstow during parachute deployment.

[@game1boy1007]

@@kvarnerinfoTV what happens then, it gets stuck somewhere and puts the chute in a spin?

[@kvarnerinfoTV]

@@game1boy1007 in my case toggle unstowed because pocket in which was olaced was too loose. As it unstowed, left one, left side of the canopy had more speed so my canopy went into a spin causing nasty line twist. By the time I figured out what happened it was impossible to correct malfunction.

[@InspiraBoost1096]

how did he do that 1:17?

[@knatter134]

Jholan Richardson at 1:14 you can see how he pulls the "cutoff line" So his parachute gets diconnected from his rig and his second chute can open

[@tellurye]

I think you did everything right. I mean those lines were NOT coming untangled. You wouldve run out of time. I think you did great. SOrry about your chute tho. Those aint cheap.
