I did my 1100th jump

[jerolim 7]

Hi,

I did my 1100th jump
And I have celebrated it with parachute connected to fly backwards. It was accuracy canopy "Classic" with very low WL (0.7).
During flight I had to do much mental processing to make it fly where I want to. But after few exercises I have managed to make landing pattern. Flare was almost impossible because canopy would start turning wrong way, so I decided to land with small flare action, and now I have to wash mud from my container
Anyway if you want to try it be careful, and use docile canopy. And make at least 1000 normal jumps before. :)

And here is the link

You should have jumped it in higher winds and landed it going "forward"

Have you seen my pants?
it"s a rough life, Livin' the dream

Makes me think that perhaps it would be wise to put the entire rig in backwards, and deploy while flying back-to-earth.

I believe you have my stapler.

What goes around, comes later.
