Guest 1010 #26 January 24, 2006 (caution - newbie here) My first instinct is to direct you toward your instructors/dz staffers -- have you been given the TUG speech several times? If not then maybe you're just getting lots of crap out of the way for a while. (Not that you won't have another chop next jump ). Are you able to relax and move smoothly at pull time? Can you be unrushed, have one hand on the hackey and the other out front, and be nice and stable as pull time comes? That'd be good. If you still get line twists off of a jump like that then I'd buy a video slot so you can see what's going on throughout the canopy deployment (and someone else can look at it also to see whats up too). I had many line twists on the F-111 student canopies and less so on a Triathlon rental rig, but not even more than a half so far on my Spectre 190 @ 1.1. Yes more experience with each rig helps, but I still think the parachute itself has a lot to do with it. What are you jumping? (Not that I know the difference between them. ) btw, is the shoulder well? How long to get over that injury?? You can have it good, fast, or cheap: pick two.

skinnyshrek 0 #28 January 24, 2006 She can fall stable and she is a good skydiver...Her problem is she gets idiot packers to pack her shit. Just my opinion but if you start packing your self you will get familiar with openings....Probably better openingshttp://www.skydivethefarm.com do you realize that when you critisize people you dont know over the internet, you become part of a growing society of twats?

waltappel 1 #32 January 24, 2006 Quoteunfortunately i am still using student gear that doesnt fit me all to well.....and I don't pack.....not until I get a smaller canopy I have had people watch me on opening.....they said that it doesn't really appear to be body position....so I don't know It's like anything else. You need to start eliminating the variables. See if you can jump the same rig every single time. Start packing your own main. Pack it the same way every single time. Make sure your harness is tightened exactlythe same way every single time. Make sure your shoulders are level with the horizon when you deploy. If you do things in a really consistent way, you will eventually get consistent results. Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xenaswampjumper 0 #47 January 24, 2006 honestly...i am not too upset about the line twists....i am just starting to wonder if there is something out there telling me in a "gentle" way that I shouldn't be doing this.....i never felt that way until about 20 non-skydivers told me this.....i still really don't.....but wanted to get the opinions of skydivers the shoulder took about six weeks......although it was over three weeks until I really knew I had the injury till later have fun & love each other seeya mb65johnny gates....
