Fun Exits 2-way

Recommended Posts

Any ideas for fun exits/skydives for 2? My buddy and I have been jumping together and we freefly, but we are looking to do some fun stuff other than the normal (H.G., flower, train, etc) exits. We did a tube that was AWESOME...any fun ideas out there?
...FUN FOR ALL!

washing machine!!! - 69 Dude


have him sit in the door facing out with his legs dangling in the wind.

stand over him looking out and bend over to take leg gripps near his kneas. he holds onto your leg grips which should be by his ears.

then just role out and hold for 10 secs

You will spin tjhrough the air like drunken monkeysB|

try to launch yourself out the door for a faster spin - soooooo much fun.

I did it once and forgot my visor was up and kept getting the wind in my face every time I faced the earth... I was like

I know that one as a "ferris wheel".

Another fun one is for both jumpers to sit at the edge of the door facing inwards, backs to the outside. Interlock your arms, like you would escort a maid of honor down the aisle, and cross your legs together. Then rock back-forward-back on "ready-set-go". Snap your torso backwards quickly, and kick your legs up towards your head. This will roll the two of you outside into a series of side-by-side backloops.

Works great from an Otter. Can't do it from a C-182.

You can also do this with a three-way side-by-side from an Otter.

It's fun to see the close-up expression on the other's face, while the earth spins wildly by beyond.

Practice the set-up on the ground, so that you don't take too long in the door on jump run.

What'sd even more fun than a straight ferris wheel is the 'gyroscope'. It's a "tumblefuq" (we're tumbling... FUQ!) where one of the grips gets dropped during the first rotataion off the step. Can you say disorientation? I knew you could. And the longer you hold it the greater the tension and forces become. I'm sure you blow all over the sky but fun exits always take into account proper exit separation for the failure modes? Right?

Mr Bill. Not a freefall thing but sounds great (havent tried it yet cos its unnoficially banned at my dz cos of fairly serious incident involving one a couple of years ago, no one hurt though)

Hop and hop. One guy holds onto the guy dumping until canopy is open. Then just drop off yourself.

Watch your handles.
