scrublink 0 #7 September 13, 2006 Between 5 and 10 minutes. Drogue in tow deployed reserve as soon as I realized I couldn't free it. Long cold ride. Ed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dayle 0 #11 September 13, 2006 I"m not exactly sure, time dilation and all. However my protrack said I was in the saddle at 700 feet. So that's what, 10 seconds or so to landing? Dayle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monkycndo 0 #12 September 13, 2006 I just demo'd a reserve from 8K, but I guess that doesn't count. The last time my reserve was out was about a 40 second ride.50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thread was inspired by : How long was it since your last reserve ride... Take 2 words out and here we are Not sure how long mine was. I have only had 1. That was my 32nd jump and it was a pilot chute in tow. I know from people that saw I had pulled my reserve a little below 1000 so I would imagine it wasn't that long but I was to pumped with adrenaline to really remember. Oh yeah and what video is that? Is it on skydivingmovies.com?I may not agree with what you have to say but i'll defend to the death your right to say it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peckerhead 0 #14 September 13, 2006 I had one from about 10,000 ft....It seemed like about half an hour. It was not my last one but for sure the longest. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtval 0 #21 September 13, 2006 Hmm. didn't time it but iswas from nromal deployment alt. I had a horseshoe at 4,500ft agl.cutaway and was in the saddle by 1700ft agl. I didnt do any radical turns or anything so it may have been longer than a normal ride. EDIT: actually it was more like 3000ft deploy and 1600ft in saddle under reserve.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACMESkydiver 0 #22 September 13, 2006 Not bad...I think I was under orange and white (funky lookin' reserve!) by 2k.~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grue 1 #23 September 13, 2006 A few minutes. Smart 220 loaded at a 1.2 or so, in the saddle at like 2800. There wasn't a lot of debate with the main regarding if I was going to land it, and I happened to pull higher than normal on that jump.cavete terrae.
