Cutaway Recovery talk

[Cutaway01 0]

I will be doing a Cutaway Recovery talk during thanksgiving here at Skydive City in Zephyrhills if anyone is intrested. I will cover everything you need to know to recover your main or freebag in all kinds of conditions.

Just in case any readers aren’t familiar with this poster...
Robert is THE lost equipment BLOODHOUND! Given the time of day, cutaway altitude and an idea of where you cutaway he’ll go after your gear and FIND it. There are very few times where he has come up dry even in the most inhospitable terrain in the area. Snakes, hogs, swamp, brush, woods... it doesn’t matter. He’s like a bulldog and won’t let go until your gear is back.

Very interesting topic, I have recently been unable to find my freebag while I have seen my main land and found the cutaway handle while looking for the freebag. Will be unable to attend the talk in person obviously but is there any chance of a video being recorded, uploaded and posted in this thread? Would be invaluable I think, thank you!

It would be nice if someone could record and post the talk.

Instructor quote, “What's weird is that you're older than my dad!”

And if you've been to Z-Hills at least once, then you've heard the stories.

I'm standing on the edge
With a vision in my head
My body screams release me
My dreams they must be fed... You're in flight.
