Tandem - broken bridle upon drogue release - what would you do?
garyw replied to cpoxon's topic in Instructors
A few of us use different gear at different times during our tandem career. By keeping it simple you can also keep it safe. Drogue - primary - secondary - cutaway - reserve handle - RSL. Is there anyone that can draw out the decision making process in the RW manual? Could you fast forward though the process having just pulled the drogue release at 5500ft? Esp after when accelerating to tandem terminal without the drogue with the added possibility of all the unusual attitudes that can now happen. -
Skydive Vic Falls was established in Livingstone in 2005. Thousands of tandem jumps have been done in the small resort town which boasts the best adrenalin Activities in a single destination in Africa. Jumping happens at Livingstone International Airport, after a flight to altitude over the Victoria Falls. This provides the ideal photo opportunity over the Victoria Falls. Most of our tandem skydives include a close up aerial view of the Mighty Zambezi River and the Natural Wonder "The Victoria Falls".
