dragon2 0 #1 March 16, 2008 Rounds like you've never seen them before, at least I haven't... 'watch that step' 'watch your altitude' 'watch that static-line' ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beatnik 2 #3 March 16, 2008 Nice video and you got to give those people credit. They are doing something people less than half their age wouldn't do. I have seen rounds like that before. In fact I own a couple. Nothing new but nice to see. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy_Copland 0 #8 March 16, 2008 I had all the mals drummed into my skull during AFF and watching a load of static lines go up, they threw the WDI out and i was sure it was a streamer or cutaway main 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit.

relyon 0 #9 March 17, 2008 Very cool. Were I on the load, I'd have been a little concerned if Teuge was closer to Eindhoven, Nijmegen, or Arnhem. Some of the older locals could have had flashbacks. Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pontiacgtp00 0 #11 March 17, 2008 I used to want to jump a round....but after watching those landings I don't think I want to anymore! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,121 #12 March 17, 2008 Most of those didn't look all that bad. Remember that a traditional PLF was intended to have you roll over with your legs in the air. Because if you do that, the momentum will carry you back to upright. Worked for me... Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phoenixlpr 0 #13 March 17, 2008 I had the privilege to start from An-2 with a RS4/A round gear. I have jumped out and not just pushed out. That's an experience, but I don't want to jump those ever. I prefer soft and predictable landings. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kikkoman 0 #14 March 17, 2008 What altitude did they jump at? Looks like a lot of fun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beatnik 2 #15 March 17, 2008 Landings under a T10 isn't that bad, You will never get the full experience from a video. A proper PLF if you have never seen or done one before cane be deceiving. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
