Bagpipes & Bonfires 2023 - Level 2 Pro Rated Demo Jump
After working the ground crew for this demonstration jump in 2022, I set a goal to earn my PRO Rating and jump into it this year. Well, I made it happen!
This landing area is pretty large for a demo jump and was a great way to get myself acclimated with the planning process and emotions surrounding a demonstration jump.
Two of my close friends and mentors went along with me and it was truly an experience to behold!

SLTB 2023 3-Way Jump #2 Gus, Hemanth, Eric & Zach
มุมมอง 186ปีที่แล้ว
This was our second jump of the SLTB 2023 - 3-Way Skills Camp. Gus (pink and black) had a bit of a hard time getting back to formation. This is due to the position of his arms, primarily.

This was the first jump of the day. All of the crew did really good on this jump and everyone progressively improved throughout the day! Dive Flow: Open Accordion Exit, Star, 360, Star until 5000ft breakoff

SLTB - Solo Looking To Build SLTB is the FREE coaching event that I host monthly at Chicagoland Skydiving Center. Each month is a different topic (tracking, advanced turns, group skills, etc.), and it's open to people of all skills and jump numbers. Ideally the curriculum is focused on the newly licensed jumper, however it's also a low stress environment to work on coaching. SLTB events are com...
Tyler FU1 with Zach Foreman AFF Category A @ CSC
มุมมอง 146ปีที่แล้ว
This was Tyler's first skydive with his own gear and he did fantastic! Overall, his body position is arched and stable for the entire skydive. His practices touches were a bit off target to begin, but that happens for most students. His third practice touch was on target for this pilot chute handle.
Skydiving Malfunctions - Crazy Line Twists & Low Altitude
มุมมอง 18Kปีที่แล้ว
This was an everyday skydive. Nothing odd and just another jump... until things went wrong, and fast! The skydiver on this jumper was an advanced skydiver and their decision altitude was 1800ft. As you can see, they fought all the way until it was close, but should have cut away when they checked their altimeter the 3rd time. . Line twists are not often this bad and to be honest, the smarter de...
Close Call Skydiving - Crazy Close Opening- Almost Canopy Collision
มุมมอง 1.9Kปีที่แล้ว
Talk about a close call... The videographer is falling at 110mph and about to safely end their skydive, when another skydiver under canopy zips right in front of the videographer! At speeds like this, a collision is likely fatal. . At the end of each skydive, jumpers are taught to create separation from other. The videographer created the correct amount of separation from his group, but unbekno...
Skydiving AFF Category A / FU1 with Jon

This is Jon's first ever jump out of an airplane with his own parachute! Crazy! Jin was very responsive to the initial hand signal "legs out" to correct his leg position. Jon only performed two of the three practice touches from the dive flow, and had to have instructor assistance to find the pilot chute handle. He was altitude aware and did a great job at the bottom end of waving, reaching, an...

Skydiving AFF Category F-2 with Joe Levels Up & Down
มุมมอง 4.7K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Joe did great on this jump. Our goal was to work on relative fall rate control (up & down movement). Joe, like most students struggled with de-arching to go "up" or slow his fall rate. He did a great job of staying relative to the coach throughout and a fantastic track away at the end.

A License Check Dive Skydiving with Joe from 9k
มุมมอง 2.7K3 ปีที่แล้ว
The A License Check Dive is the last required jump before you are eligible to apply for your license. A typical check dive includes a swoop to pin, two 360 turns, and an unstable maneuver before breakoff and a good track on breakoff. Joe kicked butt on his check dive and all of that from 9000 ft due to weather! Great job Joe!
Skydiving Gone Wrong AFF Category A / FU1 No Arch Flipped Rolled AFF Happens
มุมมอง 9K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Category A jumps are 90% of the time, uneventful. This jump however, was a bit of a roller coaster ride to start. The issue all stemmed from the students de-arched body position on exit. When I felt comfortable and would initiate a move to correct the student, he somehow found a way to become even more unstable, until at last, I got him on his belly. We still had plenty of time to perform the d...

      ​@@SOLDOZER ​ He's right though. I had a severe twist my very first jump and he described the procedure I used. You kick your legs separately and you keep kicking with the leg that makes you spin. You will spin a quarter turn each kick. My instructor reiterated that it's not even an emergency. I don't know who's teaching this procedure but I'm sure glad my instructor didn't.

    Nice job on that instructor giving it a little help. That student eas in good hands, when i started jumping it was 5 static line jumps with a DRCP. After that the freefall was just me and no instructor. I didn't even have an altimeter, i was told to count seconds off then deploy. That being said, i had a freekin blast. Skydiving is is pure freedom. And very safe statistically speaking. I made 166 jumps, which isnt alot, but i would love to do it again. Unfortunately im too heavy atm😢

      That was what I saw. At @1:23 he went to do the right thing pulling the risers APART, but for some reason @1:25 right up to his middle finger at @1:38 he started to tighten the twist UP ? ? ? At first I thought he had done it deliberately to get some "body purchase" from which to kick the twists out. That seemed to "work" after @1:57. But it seemed a strange waste of 30seconds ? When it once happened to me, IMMEDIATE pulling apart the risers stopped the twisting, then holding them apart and "bicycling kicks" untwisted them as fast as they had twisted ? ? Made me realise how important a stable body position is at deployment ?
