when david nye packed it it snivelled for a second and it was sweet. the last jump i made on it felt like i hit a tree at 30 mph and got a black eye from altimeter. didnt maintain good arch and was kinda well lets just put it this way kinda gave up on the dive that wont happen again thanks again yes it is a student rig but i reallyyyyyyyyyy like it cant wait to jump again this wknd

as i am very new to the sport i was wondering at what altitude do the majority of experienced divers deploy @? my lowest has been @4,000, i personally dont see me deploying below 3,000. also is there anyway to practice a cutaway? thanx

sorry for being stupid but do you have to cut away from somthin as small as 21sqft or do you land it? i ask this question for knowledge as i do not know better. my last jump was with chris and to me he was quite familiar he was my jm and im having trouble with this. does it make me look stupid to be using these large canopies any info would be much appreciated as i am very new to the sport with only 4 jumps -
having only 4 jumps i still shake rattle and roll till altitude mr martin and mr nye would laugh and i will always remember mr. martin telliing me to relax as they were reading the warning labels on my harness but for some reason when the door opened and chris would motion for me to get into position it was all focus. everything had its place good or bad. me personally i wouldnt do it if it didnt involve some kinda fear

can this type of spinning mal occur in larger canopies?

Risk of spinning mal with g-forces not allowing you to cut-away
