kallend 1,635 #1 June 6, 2004 Did my first Birdman jump today. Classic suit, 67mph average fallrate, 81 seconds from 13k. Unfortunately the cameradude had a bad exit and all he got was a shot of me disappearing into the distance. Line twists on opening but kicked out OK. WOW! I need more of this!... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kallend 1,635 #5 June 6, 2004 QuoteCongrats. :) What canopy did you use, out of curiosity? Stiletto 150. Loaded around 1.2 when I'm not wearing lead. Prolly should get something else if I do this often. Just undid the arms, grabbed the risers and kicked out. Didn't need to undo the legs. Wasn't spinning....
