Jump / Cutaway Ratio Poll

Recommended Posts

566 jumps; 5 cutaways.

All were wingsuit related (bad body position on pitch) and I've since corrected the problem.

1:113.

I think people may have forgotten the format.

The last published number was 112833/ 217 = 519.98

So:

112833 + 490 = 113323
217 + 0 = 217

113323 / 217 = 522.2

112833+1015= 113848
217+3=220
113848/220 = 517.5

112776 + 57 = 11833

216 + 1 = 217

Holy Moly


Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out and shouting,
".... holy crap....what a ride!"

I have 6000 jumps 3 cutaways

My wife had 6000 with no cutaways untill she got her tandem rating 9 months ago.She now has almost 1000 tandems now, 7000+ jumps and 3 cutaways.

I only have 1 tandem cutaway (she packed it:S)_.

Luck of the draw I suppose.

115651 + 1850 = 117501

218 + 1 = 220

117501/220 = 534.09



Suppose I should do the right thing and do the math for Rhys (and his wife) - assuming tandems count?:

RHYS:

115651 + 6000 = 121651
219 + 3 = 222

121651 / 222 = 547.98

RHYS'S WIFE:

121651 + 7000 = 128651

222 + 3 = 225

128651 / 225 = 571.78

...and me:

128651 + 1850 = 130501

225 + 1 = 226

130501 / 226 = 577.44

Looks like we are beating the myth of 1 in every 300.

Bump.

Currently:

135001 Skydives
230 Cutaways
---------------------
135001 / 230
---------------------
586.96 / 1


I always thought it was 1:500 ratio, which is still lower than our average

138,538 + 133=138,671
232+0=232
138,538/232=597.72


138,671 + 1015 = 139686
232+3 = 235
139686/235 = 594.41
