Wraps

[packerboy 3]

Unfortunately I don't get to see a whole lot of CRW go on in my dropzone. What really amazes me everytime I see it is a wrap. There are a couple of vid's on skydivingmovies.com but not too many.. is their a special CRW dog lair dot com where I can check out some more pics and vids of wraps and cool CRW moves. You guys are awesome, keep on barking, just don't shit near my trailer..

More sensationalization of the dangers of CRW?

Psst. Will PM you link for vid that has some sweet CRW and a couple of aerodynamically challenged canopies.

Edit: Anyone have a link to the shots of the British 8way team exiting the CASA. Those are sweet CRW shots.

I'm guessing he means the Skytribe exits out of the skyvan - when would there have been a British 8-way team jumping from a CASA? Wendy used to have them on her site but they don't seem to come up any more. The only link I could find was this old article:

When indeed would we have an 8-way team training out of a casa.

Not much difference between a 4-way exit and and 8-way exit, probably 4 people if my working out is correct.

Nothing comes up. Just an X on the main page thumbnails and a 'Page cannot be displayed' when you click the thumbnails.

I remember those photographs. Saw them several years ago. Incredible sequence. Simply speaking, these guys were nuts, but then again, I believe the reasoning was that if one of them was gonna open off-heading and hit a teammate, the collision would not be so bad because they deployed close enough to each other...

Still, I don't have the balls to do something like that, not yet anyways.

I usually give at least a second out the door before I pull. That was after the time I pitched just as I jumped out of Mullin's King Air and my bridle went over the horizontal stabilizer! The next guy out nearly peed himself! This was years ago, in the late 90's.

However for exits, I prefer at least a 2 second delay between jumpers and the jumpers alternate between 1 and 3 seconds of freefall before deployment to cut the risk of mid-air collisions from off-heading deployments. That's just a general rule...

Very quick on the draw: 4-way rote jump with canopy over tail. Canopy was OK, #4 joined us late and we still did a 6. Only found out what he did after landing.
