Who had the second cutaway?
-
I think it was packing. My body position was fine. I don't know what the packing error was though. What do you all think?
-
At this dz there is really no outs so they have a rule that you must be under canopy at 3k. I am use to a snivel so at 3.5k I deployed my Spectre. I had something different today. As soon as I deployed the pilot chute it opened immediately with severe twists and I was spinning through the sky out of control . I tried to stop the spinning and kick out the twists but had no control whatsoever. I chopped while my body was on my back under canopy and I immediately arched and got back to the belly position before deploying my reserve. I had my second reserve ride today and I have yet to determine what happened. Any ideas?

I had my second reserve ride today. I have not been jumping for the last couple of weeks because of the weather and work so I was full of excitement and off to the dz this morning. I arrived and began talking to a fellow that sounded familiar. It ended up being Dz.commer JNCoughlin. We talked about this wonderful website and his progression through AFF and the fact that he was completing his AFF level 6 today and we discussed his flip and what it would be like. When then discussed the first cutaway I had and what happened. I told him that the training he was having will prepare him for the procedures and he will know when he needs to complete them. I then manifested myself on the next load and Robbie the DZO of Skydive Boston Providence and I completed a 2 way RW. He is an awesome skydiver and has competed successfully in a lot of RW competitions. Second load I did a solo freefly and completed a sit to a head down and was psyched for the next jump. Another DZ.commer Emmie showed up and we talked and then we manifested for a 2 way. We went through our dive flow on the ground and we were going to work on exiting stable for the base in formations. We geared up and we were on the plane. Exit was nice and stable and we locked arms and had a stable two way. Then we had some fun and locked arms and spun around for awhile. Seperation time came and we both tracked after 180 degree turns. At this dz there is really no outs so they have a rule that you must be under canopy at 3k.

All I can say is practice your emergency procedures before,during the plane ride, and use them if you have something like I had today. As far as the reason for the malfunction I have no idea. It opened immediately from deployment which is unusual and there was twists from the risers to the canopy and it was spinning VERY rapidly! What do you think caused it?

I just reminded myself to stay away from JTVAL. I don't swing that way dude but to each his own!

Lummy that picture is sofa king cracking me up!

Is Killers from Iron Maiden one of your favorite albums Slappie?
-
Out of all do respect Slappie I have not met you so when you post stuff like that after each time we post something it can be annoying. Someone who doesn't know you might think it is a personal attack and will take threads into a direction that HH does not like. Ever think of that?

happened to me too. I started crying and then they came back up!

That is a great topic for this forum ChromeBoy! Thanks for asking it! >>1. When, where, with whom (don't have to give names if you do not want to just how you knew them) did you lose your virginity to? I was 15 and lost it at my girlfriends house. I rode my bike about 15 miles to her house and we went swimming and it was like that scene in Fast Times at Ridgemont High in the pool house. >>2. What is your funniest sexual experience? When I was 16 I had a party and this girl really liked me and came over. I ended up hooking up with her friend that night and the girl that liked me walked in on us and and started screaming at the girl I was doing. The whole party came in the room and I was naked on the bed and these two girls were in a fight about sleeping with me! Now I can't get anybody to sleep with me. Times change. >>3. What is your not so funniest sexual experience? Two stroke SCORE! >>4. If you could have sex with anyone on earth (opposite sex please and no sheep) who would it be? Too many to name.

How about having a shark and saltwater crocodile in there and have a saltwater Ultimate Fighting Championship between the two?

Too bad he missed the track and landed in the parking lot....j/k...Sebazz landed right by the track in front of the girls with the biggest boobies!

I like my Mirage. I have tried other peoples Odysseys and I like my Mirage better. I also like the looks of the Mirage better and we all know it's not how good you can skydive it's how good you look doing it!

How about a lot of beer? Does that matter?

NWS? Are you all talking about me? What do you want?

Skymama that is how he grasps the sheep. He Cups his hands to make the sheep stay in place. We all have recommended velcro to him but he likes using the cupped hand method.

You must have been looking in a mirror. Put your helmet with your camera on in the mirror again and you can take a picture to really see it. It's frightening I know but you need to face reality.

Notice how they BAILED from the plane and PLUNGED to the ground.
