jerolim 7 #1 November 16, 2010 Hi, I did my 1100th jump And I have celebrated it with parachute connected to fly backwards. It was accuracy canopy "Classic" with very low WL (0.7). During flight I had to do much mental processing to make it fly where I want to. But after few exercises I have managed to make landing pattern. Flare was almost impossible because canopy would start turning wrong way, so I decided to land with small flare action, and now I have to wash mud from my container Anyway if you want to try it be careful, and use docile canopy. And make at least 1000 normal jumps before. :) And here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdK-lfOZ9yM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Airviking 0 #6 November 16, 2010 Makes me think that perhaps it would be wise to put the entire rig in backwards, and deploy while flying back-to-earth. I believe you have my stapler. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
