slug 1 #51 January 15, 2004 QuoteIt's wierd to read the high-winds hook turn procedure, in light of recent skydiving trends. So anyone ever hook a PC as described? We jumped in Kansas so we were a little behind the times, and backing up a lot of times. We did see a visiting jumper hook his PC in during high winds to get penertration for a nice standup. His timing was perfect. Never had the gut's to try it on rounds and or even squares when I was still jumping. A person can really hurt themselves doing that stuff if they screw up The grapevine back in the day was a little slower and the winds would blow the smoke signals away befor they got to far, but don't remember hearing/reading about any bad accidents. Just folks saying don't do that. So we would just land backing up with minor injuries. The barb wire fences were useful for stopping you from getting dragged to far in case you got knocked out on landing. R.I.P. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mlinda 0 #52 January 14, 2006 I came across your reference to Bob Hill on this Dropzone site and wonder if anyone has any idea whatever happened to him. A number of his Toronto friends have been trying to find him We would appreciate any help you can give us. We're planning a get-together and would love to include Bob if he is still around.

markd_nscr986 0 #53 January 14, 2006 28'.....American Pap........Starlite....... 300 total on rounds........always stood them up........unless the wind was 15+.........and you could flare if you wanted........worked best for me on the 28' but......... I was 6' and 130 lbs back thenthat might have had something to do with itMarc SCR 6046 SCS 3004 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norman8791 0 #54 January 14, 2006 I use to hook my PC in high winds, and did real well with it, until one day, I missed just a little and tore my knee up pretty good. I got better results pulling the front risers down, until just before landing and switching to rear risers, Norm Van Pelt D5555 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ripcord4 0 #55 January 14, 2006 No, you can not flare a PC in the sense of flaring a square. And I have the broken ankle to prove it. Stand up landings could be as routine with a PC as they are with todays canopies, but there was no flare, per se. You had to be very carefull with control inputs near the ground as it could stall and sink you into the ground. Let up too fast on the steering toggles and it would surge ahead and be on the ground before you were...ala today. Either way could be hazardous to your legs.

wayne8577 0 #56 January 14, 2006 Yes you can! On a hard turn the PC would pendulem slighty foward with full brakes at the bottom of the turn. Had to be done JUST right! No where near as much as a square! But, only with a turn as you needed the centrifical force of the turn to do it! Otherwise No!Here's to Old Farts in the Wind!

tbrown 26 #58 January 16, 2006 QuoteQuoteThe Para-Commander was one of the best chutes ever made, and I think I only had 2 malfinctions on them... I never had to cutaway from a round canopy either - never. I had a Paracommander and later a Sparrow, which was a mini 21' lightweight sort of a PC clone built for RW. Also tried one jump each on a Starlite and a Piglet II, didn't really care much for either of them. You couldn't really "flare" a PC in the sense that you flare a ram air, because rams are wings and PC's are rounds. But I used to get fantastically soft landings with my PC and acceptable standups with my Sparrow by pulling down on the rear risers. The PC landings were so soft that I gave up on wearing paraboots (that's right kids, we used to wear paraBOOTS), for sneakers. Never tried burying the toggles, as it didn't make sense to me. Pulling the toggles down would not only stall the canopy, but would do so by releasing more air out of 6 side slots (3 on ea. side). That never sounded to good for landing a round, so I never did it. I will admit in those days I was a bony 155 lb 6'3" scarecrow, noadays I struggle to stay below 220 lbs and much as I'd love to jump one again am just too heavy for a round.

Trust me, it's a great chute and won't bust you up. It's a delight to jump. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites steve1 5 #61 January 17, 2006 I read in a skydiving magazine, a while back, that many old skydivers used to pull down on the rear risers at the exact instant that they hit the ground, thus lifting themselves up to lessen impact. I wonder who dreamed that up? I don't think anyone did it that way, but maybe some jumpers did. I doubt if it would help much. Everyone I knew pulled the back risers down a few seconds before hitting the ground. A flare may not be the right name, but it did slow down your forward speed for a softer landing. In the 70's I was a pretty scrawny guy and had no trouble standing up a P.C. I even had a couple one foot standups when the wind was just right on a Mark 1. I hadn't jumped a para-commander in over 25 years. A friend had one at a boogie a couple summers ago. So naturally I had to try it. Even though I'm now a fat old man I still stood it up. Kind of like riding a bike....Steve1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Beermonster 0 #62 January 17, 2006 The PC doesn't generate lift as a product of forward speed in the same way a ram air does, thus flaring the beast would be a futile excercise. What I've found is that pulling down on the back risers just before touch down pulls down on the crown lines that invert the apex and probably force air out and down a bit faster, giving a softer landing. The down side is that if you screw it up, the small amount of acceleration required to inflate the canopy properly again could mean a harder landing. My 2c worth....

I've still got two pair of "Frenchies," or, "Waffle Stomper" paraboots. At some point I quit wearing them for PC jumps, unless I was carrying a smoke bracket on my foot. For landings where I'd either be in the peas or on fairly level grass, I felt that I had more control of how my feet were placed with tennis shoes than boots...sort of like a sports car not doing as well in a collision as an SUV, but maybe more likely to be able to swerve away from a collision than an SUV, I guess. In order to truly say whether or not a PC could be "flared," I guess that depends on how you define that term. We used to refer to "flaring" as a method of landing cheapos and PCs. My own PC was a short-lined Mk 1, and I weighed between 170 and 185 lbs when I was jumping it. Before that, I had a 28' with a 7TU mod. I jumped them both the same way. If I was making a stable and straight approach to the the point of landing, I'd pull the toggles as far down as I could reach, just a few feet before contact. If I timed it right, the canopy would be just about to stall when my feet hit the ground. That would reduce the forward speed-over-ground of the canopy. If the wind was around 5-7 mph, that sort of landing was fairly gentle. Nearly all of my landings, starting with my first jump off static line, were standups. "Flaring" the canopy would also swing my legs forward a bit, putting my feet at a better angle to hit the ground with a little forward drive (unless the grass was wet or there was a fresh cowpie there). I tried the pull-down-on-the-back-risers technique on cheapos a few times, and on the PC once, in a high-wind landing. I remember thinking at the time that it didn't really make much difference, but stalling the canopy did. In case of an anticipated hard landing I guess that it did put your arms into a better position for a PLF, though, than having your hands down by your sides.
