Forward loop on exit?

[Ruffles 0]

I am beginning to feel a bit saucy (a whopping 35 jumps now) and I think I'd like to try one of those forward loops on my exit. I jump a Super Otter. How does one accomplish such a feat and is there any danger in doing so?

I did one around jump #25 after seeing another newbie do it. Nothing to it, and it's real fun! Having someone check your bridle and pouch on jump run may be a good idea.

I do it all the time. Especially out of the van. But it's always a mistake when I do it. Have fun!

Forwars roll, just tuck your arms in, and bend at your waist (basicly do a roll how you would do it on the floor). You legs will get pushed up and you'll roll forward. If you stop here, you'll end up on your back or head-down.
When you're rolling forward, tuck your legs in untill you facing earth again, and then stretch your legs again and open your arms..

Shameless plug, there is an avi of me doing a couple of frontloops at ftp://ftp.skydivingmovies.com/public/misc/mccordia_solo_divx.avi

When you watch it, you can also see a small problem I have..I always slightly roll over one side (slightly over my left/right shoulder), doing more of a judo-roll then a real flip...

Anyways...just play and have fun..
