  1. yes the upper one, the one doing the video got wrapped ! and you are correct, why cut away a good canopy ! my guess is he panicked and went to his EPs
  2. I was on this jump ! I try and avoid commenting on stuff like this ! but would like to clear up a few things ! 1) yes we had a safety briefing, I remember the number one rule stay the f#@% away from the kite! 2) this was investigated by local police and the FAA, I'm almost 100% sure we filed a incident report! they confiscated the injured jumpers video equipment and my video tape of the incident ! and reviewed, no one was found negligent ! 3) it was a slow day at our drop zone, only a few people on site, no S&TAs on site. 4) the video you see has been edited , the wrapped jumper did have a good main canopy over his head, he performed his emergency procedures. and deployed his reserve canopy into the wrap . I don’t remember if he had an RSL . 5) the injured jumper had CRW training,
  3. i work two dropzones c182 dropzone______ pac750 tandems $0 _______ $30.00 all other $0 _______ ? video $85.00 ______ ? you do all editing shipping etc... i think i need to find a better paying dropzone!
  4. make sure you using a firewire, click on the capture tab make sure the camcorder is set to vcr and turned on click on set up tab, then click capture source then click on the video drop down and select your dv device if that wont work go to your camcorders web site and see if you can get the soft ware drivers and download them if you have windows you might also have windows movie maker, if so will wmm recognize your camcorder if it will you have the drivers installed
  5. skittles i hav a video of you in a flat spin,uncontrollable for a few thousand feet. at the time of the video you had a A licence should i make that a clicky? you recovered and they still keep you in the sport it didnt look all that bad to me, he was just lucky he did not have line twist!
