Zoter 0 #1 January 23, 2006 A movie has recently been uploaded that shows a nice clear example of a PC in tow due to an uncocked PC. The jumper grabs the bridal to pull out the pin and at this point the PC 'inflates' where it was clearly collapsed prior to pulling the bridal... Any experienced people have a good explanation as to the mechanics of this ....ie how the jumpers action resulted in PC inflation on an uncocked PC...?? http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=3257 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazydiver 0 #2 January 23, 2006 As you probably know, a pilot chute can still be cocked when the canopy is in the main deployment bag. What I'm guessing happened is that while the bag was in the container, it was too tight to allow the wind to cock the pilot chute, but when he manually extracted the pin, it allowed the kill line to cock itself with the wind resistance on the PC. My 2 cents. Cheers, Travis Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
