In addition try to execute the last ~30% of your flare(from ~70% to 100% toggleinput)unusually fast/all in a sudden/"explosive". ..

That is of course when you know where the stall-point is... otherwise you might find your canopy unusually fast/all in a sudden/"explosive" behind you...

Got one too, for a velocity 79..

Thanks for flagging it!

Can anyone explain (guess?) how you can get a baglock on a reserve freebag ?

A TM at our DZ briefed a few tandem students and explained they should arch. "Take the banana position".
As the TM tightened the straps to get ready for the exit, he reminded the (female) student: "Remember the banana.."

She replied: "I think I can already feel it"

That's the one I was looking for!
Thanks Jerry

A few months ago I came across a website which had a lot of manuals off current and even more on discontinued canopies.
Of course I DIDNT bookmark the site then and now I can't find it :-(

Can anyone help me?

TIA!
