Object Type: Earth
Location: The Chief, Squamish B.C.
COD: Impact (low-pull)
Clothes / Suit: Wingsuit / Aura 1
Parachute: tbd
Age: tbd
Experience: Experienced
Time of day: tbd


Description:

Gary was first to exit. The jump occurred around 10 AM. The conditions were calm on exit with a slight right to left wind in the LZ. The face and talus is shaded at this time of day. Gary exited and started to fly with very little forward speed. He continued to fly at this speed as he approached the two sets of high tension power lines between the exit and the LZ. The forward speed decreased as he attempted to fly over the lines. He cleared power lines and deployed immediately. The pilot chute opened the container and canopy extraction began to occur as he impacted before line stretch.

Date: June 25, 2016 Nationality: American
Object Type: Earth
Location: waterfall exit, Kjerag, Norway
COD: Pin Lock Malfunction
Clothes / Suit: Wingsuit / Colugo 2
Parachute: tbd
Age: tbd
Experience: 1200 skydives and 235 basejumps
Time of day: tbd


Description:

"The Jumper in question, whilst on the exit point, had realized his bottom pin had become dislodged. After taking off his gear and re-adjusting his pin into the closing loop, he had packed himself a pin lock malfunction. As you can see, it seems that whilst the jumper was on the exit point closing his bottom pin back, he has not taken the bridle and pc out of its stow and continued packing it differently as to how you would whilst packing after a jump. Because of the pilot chute still in its stow and the bridle tucked away under the bottom closing flap, he has effectively closed it with the bridle on the inside of the closing loop..
This caused the pilot chute when pulled would expand in the air and start the sequence but stopped when it reached the pin because of the way it was figured.

The jumper died immediately after pilot chute/bridle fully extracted and impacted at high speed.

Please, as a warning to others whilst base jumping, take the time to slow down and remember to do all the things you have been trained to do and not skip any steps whilst packing your ONLY parachute."

Date: June 23, 2016 Nationality: American
Object Type: Earth
Location: Torri del Vajolet-Dolomites, Italy
COD: Impact (Terrain flying/Emergency Pull)
Clothes / Suit: Wingsuit
Parachute: tbd
Age: tbd
Experience: Highly Experienced
Time of day: 3:00pm


Description:

At 3pm on June 23rd, 2016, Chris jumped solo from Torri del Vajolet, attempting a wingsuit flyby of the restaurant/rifugio, Rifugio Preuss Hütte. Chris had free-solo climbed several hundred feet to the exit point, no other jumpers were present that day and this was his first jump from this exit point. His original flight plan was a more direct path towards the rifugio and to remain visible to the ground crew during the entire flight and deployment. Outside video shows him flying initially towards the east, then turning south, towards the rifugio where he disappears from view of the camera. Other witnesses saw him flying down a gulley, east of the rifugio, then lost sight of him. When he did not land at the primary LZ, ground crew hiked downhill from the rifugio looking for him. Italian Alpine Rescue found his body via helicopter approximately 2 hours later, at the bottom of the gulley, southeast of the rifugio. He struck a tree approximately 60ft uphill, at a 45-degree angle, from where his body was found.

Gear inspection shows the canopy sustained damage from the tree, but the slider was still at the top of the lines, suggesting a low/emergency deployment. The closing loops were intact, evidence the PC had opened the container, not the impact. Injuries sustained and equipment damage suggest a high speed impact. His GoPro was recovered, shattered, without the SD card. Hours were spent searching the impact area on June 25th, but no SD Card was found. The weather conditions were described as light winds from the south, no clouds. The altitude difference between the rifugio (his planned flyby location) and his primary LZ was approximately 300ft. The location where his body was found was at a similar altitude to the Primary LZ.
Chris had jumped that morning, from a different exit point and performed a flyby of a cross next to the rifugio. He landed south(downhill) of the rifugio, on a trail. The planned flight for the second jump was a more direct path to the Primary LZ.
