    Hi guys, in a week or so me and a few of my friends are going to do a tandem jump, it's the first time for all of us. I know you probably get plenty of questions asking what it's like, but I have one particular inquiry which I couldn't find anwsered anywhere. When you first deploy the parachute, how harsh is the deceleration? Do you get thrown around a lot or is it somewhat gradual? On a related note, does anyone know what are (or where I can get) statistics about the speeds one is going during a tandem freefall/while one is gliding with the parachute? Thanks.
