Did she chop it or land it?

Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Vibes Girl !!!!! So did you keep it ? Or do you owe beer for the first chop?

Well............you know what THEY say.............If you are going to be stupid you gotta be tough! Seriously, hope you are OK and not hurting too much.

I kept it, which was fine. However, one of the many stupid things I did while regaining the use of my arms and whatnot was NOT to even consider that I might need to chop it. I didn't even know the cells blew out until the packer I dropped it off for showed me.

I probably would have kept it anyway, based on the nature of the tear, but I should have at least thought to check it out before landing it. But all's well that ends well, and BIG lesson learned.

[swedishcelt 0]

We are all very glad you are okay.

Exactly..........you are now a smarter skydiver than you were yesterday. Just be sure to pass it on when you can.

Hey, little lady. We all do stupid things at times, however, that does NOT make you stupid.

Hope you are back in shape quickly.

[SuFantasma 0]

Well, it looks like it was square, steerable and stable; and you landed it well, no harm done.... Congrats. And like Clay said, you are smarter skydiver than you were before that jump

I was just wondering what type canopy it was. And do you have any idea why it slammed you? Maybe a bad pack, open still in track? Any idea's? My Sabre used to nail the shit out of me until I had the lip put on the slider. Some of the openings were hell. They are not something I want to do ever.

If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

[kelel01 1]

It is an original Sabre, and this was BY FAR the hardest opening ever. I actually blacked out for a second and then came to pretty stunned.

I do have 4 theories regarding the opening:

1. Openings are chaotic events. (A.K.A. Shit happens).

2. I packed it (which is basically a recipe for disaster).

3. I might have been ever so slightly unstable at deployment. I say this because all the pain inflicted was on my right side - except for the leg straps which was more on both.

4. I may not have slowed down from my track enough. I'm not sure on this one, but it's definitely a possibility.

Anyway, given the speed with which it opened, I feel very lucky to just have this soreness. I mean, initially it was PAIN (but even that is just a good reminder that you're alive ), but now it's just a nicely sore shoulder and back.

I had an opening once where my entire body went numb before the pain kicked in. It sucks but I was lucky nothing was broken.
