joe399 0 #1 November 14, 2007 and it was pretty weird. I was doing a hop and pop with an instructor and we jumped,we tracked a little...then he took out a laptop, and in a sit fall he started using it...while i was trying to keep up with his fall rate flying belly down. it felt like a 13k skydive, then I went to pull, and I remember it taking like 10 seconds before anything happend, then my canopy tried to inflate but never really did, At that point I remember checking my altitude and seeing 1.5 and I cutaway, Which was really hard to pull for some reason, then the reserve. landed fine and the ground crew said they had to go into a oil patch over some hills which were glowing red. It looked like I had just landed in hell... I also remember thinking "I gotta go post what just happend on dropzone.com" weird huh? BTW, I should be getting my A tomorrow. Cant wait...Anyone going to be at Elsinore? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baksteen 84 #2 November 14, 2007 Funny you should mention that. Check this out. http://www.parachute.nl/interactief.html It refers to the site of the KNVVL, the Dutch parachuting association."That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
