How does the deployment system work? He pulls the white ripcord first and something happens then he pulls the orange one and the canopy comes out. If he had a spring pilot chute it would make some sense but he seems to have a collapsible PC.

he has a spring loaded PC, mounted like a tandem drogue chute, and it is collapsible Smile

such an evolution from the first climb to now...
A great new video by Skydiver Evert from Belgium. That guy can really use his camera Smile

maybe the video was pulled down for the moment... For those who have seen it, you know how beautiful it was Smile
For the rest, well wait for a moment, pretty sure it will be back. It was a very recent video in the Swiss Alps, around Bex, which is Yves "local" place. Pure beautiful flying, clean aerobatics, and filmed by Evert from a helicopter equipped with one of these eagle-eye cameras. Sure beats the quality of a Go-Pro Tongue
