Posted: 30 Oct 2020 10:17 AM PDT

What happened Despite not having enough experience (by his own admission), this jumper was attempting to fly a cross-braced canopy at a high wing-loading. He noted that he was "expecting a toggle fire or major line twist on every jump." On this particular jump he opened into diving line twists, but instead of cutting away...

Skydiving: Skydive Student Has Premature Parachute Opening On His Back

Posted: 23 Oct 2020 09:21 AM PDT

What happened On skydive number 30, this new jumper had his first attempt at back-flying and sit-flying while still using student gear (yes, we all know what happened next).
