ninja707 0 #1 January 13, 2011 Im thinking about doing a jump in Medellin, Colombia off a paraglider. I was wondering how much the altitude will affect my canopy and if anyone has ever tried attempting this there. Also if anyone else wants to join I will be over there in February, just let me know!!!you dont need a parachute to skydive, only to skydive twice!!!!!!!!

kirkverner 0 #3 January 13, 2011 Medellin is 4900 MSL. You should expect a faster landing speed and a more ground hungry canopy. Like jumping in CO. ParacleteXP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
