I think Rod explaint it VERY well ! I just wanted to stress the fact a little more that you may get VERY VERY hard landings even with little breaks. I would try this only on emergency cases with a high loaded canopy.
Last week I did one of these "stupid" landings myself with a crossfire 109 loaded at 1.85. I made a slight correction due to traffic very low and had to flare right away, without getting to full glide again. I wassurpriesed by the very hard impact. Nothing happend exept some blue/black color still on my left leg.
Stay save !
