millertime24 8 #1 March 30, 2011 I'm doing a speech tonight on the basics of how a main parachute is deployed. I'm also going to be going over EP's and reserve deployment. What I would like is to have a close-ish video of a main being deployed and also a video of a reserve being deployed. I dont really NEED this but it would be nice to have to show the class at the end of the speech. Also, I cant use links to youtube or vimeo. I need some kind of video format that I can burn to a disk and use on my laptop. Thanks for any help.Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theonlyski 8 #2 March 30, 2011 UPT has some good shots of a reserve deployment on the skyhook video. Its an MP4 video IIRC. Also, if you wanted to rip videos from youtube, there are youtube downloaders that will download it and some even convert it to whatever flavor of encoding you like.

I sound like my mother. If it wasn't for the last minute, nothing would get done. Try PD's website or RWS sorry, UPT.Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossilbe before they were done. Louis D Brandeis Where are we going and why are we in this basket?

Arvoitus 1 #6 March 30, 2011 Does it need to be outside video? As in deployment filmed by someone watching someone else deploy. I did some WS jumps with my GoPro backwards and I have few deployments on video. It doesn't show the canopy inflating completely but shows the PC flying and lines unstowing and the initial canopy inflation.Your rights end where my feelings begin.

millertime24 8 #7 March 30, 2011 Those will do nicely. Thank you very much! BTW, who do I give the credit to? My public speaking teacher likes us to cite any sources we use that we ourselves do not create.Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BMichaeli 1 #8 March 30, 2011 here is a really good video of both it's of Bear Grylls performing a cut away you just have to click on the parachute malfunction button down the page http://dsc.discovery.com/videos/man-vs-wild-survival-101/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arvoitus 1 #9 March 30, 2011 I actually meant that you could have a video of the deployments since its more informational. Here is a rough edit of 3 deployments and slow motion replays(20%). The 3rd(last) one is probably the best since it almost shows the canopy inflation process fully. http://www.2shared.com/video/0LidqI-J/Deployments.html Give credit to Henrik Erkkilä.Your rights end where my feelings begin.
