Ignoring the line twists, anybody notice something else wrong with the canopy in this video?

Apologies if it's been posted before.

Flip thru the risers.

What is the SOP with regards to a flip through the risers as shown in that video? Haven't thought about this 'malfunction' yet.

If that would have happend to me I think I'd haved checked a.s.a.p. if the canopy would turn and flare like it should and would then have kept it if I were above my hard ceiling (2000 ft). Would have chopped though if I couldn't perform said checks if I were between 2000ft and 1000ft.

That's about right. A flip through is generally not cause for a cutaway, it's just a screaming clear sign that you, or your packer, don't do a line check and you're asking for a more serious problem in the near future.

But yeah, just do a control check, and then take it easy for the rest of the canopy ride. Be sure that your control check includes a full, deep, sustained flare, the same way you would do it for your actual landing.
