Skydiving emergency parachute malfunctions, had to open the reserve

While doing an exhibition jump in Uruguay, my pilot chute was collapsed due to a shortened kill line.
When I noticed the parachute wasn't opening, I looked over my shoulder, saw the pilot chute dragging.
saw I was close to 2000 feet so went to the reserve handles.
ended up opening at 1900 feet.
During the opening of the reserve, the main parachute came out of the container, still in it's bag.
the pilot chute got tangled on the reserve parachute, but not causing any issues.
Got it untangled and dropped it just because I didn't want another problem in my hands.
Ended up landing on the runway pretty hard.
My feet hurt when they hit the ground, but nothing else.
All good!

You really need to learn how to PLF. That was a brutal landing, after getting through all those issues.

[@nitewayhunts]

learned PLF in airborne school lol no one lands standing up in airborne school lol, no control over the parachutes lol

[@AndreasRittershofer]

Looks like missed gear check - kill line wasn't pulled.

Why tf did he aim for the hardest part of the jump zone? Dude could have steered into that small pond if he wanted to.

Inexperienced pilot under stress I'd say.

Hard landing

[@AlexSkydives]

Yeah, hurt the soles of my feet like a mother f...... But luckily that was it😂

[@SkydiveHake]

You had a steerable reserve, why not aim for the grass. Great video thanks for sharing

[@AlexSkydives]

@@SkydiveHake preferred to go against the wind, and honestly thought I would reach the grass on the other side, but didn't 😬

[@SkydiveHake]

Well, im glad you’re ok and we all get to learn. Blue skies!

2:07 don't drop it, don't drop it.. Argh.. You should have held on to it until you were lower

[@QuasiRandomViewer]

Wow! How hard was it to find you main?

[@timmyingelbrecht6977]

i'm new unexperienced skydiver, at my dropzone they are all very strict about what type of camera mount you use, what camera and what helmet all to reduce risk of lines getting hooked behind equipment on deployment. and here i see some of your friends with phone sized camera's on their helmet sticking out and .. on their chin ??

[@olexiydevyatka]

why not on the grass? Against the wind is not problems. A lot of place. And pulling the brakes too late. Good thing you didn't broken. Who did pack the canopy? Must be banned.
