First reserve ride - Total "nothing out" malfunction
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- The pin got stuck in the kill-line check window and the main failed to get free. Not all bridles are capable of this, but mine was.
Spectre 210 in Mirage G3 container with Wings bridle. 190 Techno reserve.
My first cutaway was a high speed pilot chute in tow malfunction. I got my reserve open by 1500ft. I only had 143 jumps at the time. It actually gave me a confidence boost in my reserve gear that I had never seen or flown before. It gave me confidence in the emergency procedures and process. I got really really drunk that night
man
the good ending
Were you using a RSL?
@@Illfunction Yeah I had one.
I used to put my pin in, pull it back out retighten the pack and put the pin back in so I knew it didn't take hardly any pressure to release the pin...btw my first reserve ride was on my 16th jump.
It didn't show up in the video but a bunch of plates and silverware came out of the pack
Looney Tunes forever!!
And an anvil
At least you had a reserve you could control and flare. Landings can be rough with some. Good job man, glad you’re safe
At least you didnt have to repack your main
Lee Godfrey I didn't and it worked fine. Just got rid of that pin-bridle combo
i dont mean to be offtopic but does anyone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid forgot my login password. I would appreciate any help you can give me
@Nolan Andy I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and im trying it out now.
Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Nolan Andy it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much, you saved my account!
@Deandre Tate glad I could help xD
I heard him say “Guess I’ll have to make a beer run” I never realized that a common thing...I thought that was only here that they did that. Thanks, Mr. Rigger!
Yeah beer fines are a thing all around the world.
You should get out more. The world, and skydiving, is beautiful.
Done two beer runs. The first for my first manual deployment of parachute aka FEARFALL, the second for my first, and last, malfunction.
You could not have done better; cool head all the way. Take care of the immediate problem and land safely. I loved the main pilot chute recovery and stow. Great job.
Nicely dealt with... calm as you can be!
D.B. Yeah, panicing rarely does anything for you =)
=] gr8
Excellent demonstration of being calm and methodical. Secure the pilot, leave the slider open, leave brakes half set, undo all zippers, soft landing under reserve.
Good call on the beer. You are on point. Good job.
I'm impressed that you kind of went for the accuracy peas after all that.
Why not? Once under reserve, he was safe
You handled it very well. I had to watch twice just to see anything that went awry. Really couldn't, so good job staying in the game.
My very first reserve (15ish years ago) was also a complete failure aka "nothing out". But fortunately not with a wingsuit ;-). Glad you are okay.
Good job staying calm and hitting your emergency procedures
Good job man!
did you make that beer run xD hahahhahha. good job dude !!!
great prospective of speed. cameramen are the balls to walls. I'm a never been, WAY to old now, but so much respect. safe sky's, gents.
Michigan Mister there's videos of 90 years old going tandem
I knowwww... I just use that excuse because I'm afraid I guess... no, I am. deep inside of me I want to jump so bad though.
Michigan Mister so have u jumped?? I just went on my 1st jump on Friday morning April 27th, 2018. It was such a great feeling, once leave the plane nothing but bliss.
free bag? Did a video of a 70yo not long ago. Her reasoning was "either everything goes good, or I'm going to leave skid marks up the St. Peter and the pearly gates" best tandem video ever, all smiles.
Plot twist- it was due for a reserve repack and he just wanted an excuse to buy beer.
Nice job, you dealt with that perfectly.
I think you handled that really well.
why do all the wingsuit skydivers always seem to go down on their backs looking up at the sky. May as well stay at home laying on the back garden staring at the sky.
@cameraflyer Thanks mate, I've been on the edge of my seat for the last year waiting for someone to provide a serious answer to my obviously sarcastic comment🙄
@cameraflyer It is obvious unless you have certain "issues" or you're too serious 🤣Try to lighten up and try to see humour in stuff 🙄
My 1st total was back in the 70's, it left me with total black blood clots on the undersides of both legs and a crick in the neck'
I guess reserve chutes are better now...
@@pierrevilley6675 Ive had 2 totals with a 2014 pd reserve.
Slider down with a 2-2.5 second delay is significantly worse.
2:05 "Fuck!!" - that's for a reserve repack and potential loss of a free bag, handles, etc...
My sentiments on 4 of my malfunctions.
What a fucking beautiful and great jump. Well done, congratulations awesome video !
Case of beer! Haven’t heard that in a long tome😊
My first total was in 1976 jumping the old military rigs with a paracommander. Talk about a hard opening with a chest mounted reserve and no sleeve!!! We had to make 50 jumps on rounds before transitioning to squares. Really nice to “upgrade back then”! Cheers, Joe D6575
"that was exciting" Well, near death does tend to get your blood pumping real hard so no doubt about that
I was thinking the whole time that you are pulling on that bridle and PC, that your main was going suddenly extract
glad you didnt have any problems with releasing your reserve toggles
yarpos there are always the rear risers to be used mate. Even in the unlikely event if you have to cut the toggles for any strange reason...
yarpos j
I thought reserve canopies have red toggles?
Adapt, improvise, overcome.
Blue skies!
As a former skydiver.....the word “fuck” or fuck me is a word known world wide when he pilot chute kind of disappoints us
I have a skysnatch pilot with the longer bridle. Im hoping to dust off my WS soon. Maybe tape up that check window, or a new pilot chute bridle. Id go for the later. What happens once can happen again.
Well played mate. Nice EPs. Be careful with stowing that PC too well, if your main d-bag drops out you need to be able to toss that fast
True, in a way. That's why I didn't close my suit all the way up just to be sure(wasn't sure the pin was really jammed the way it was - thou it felt really stuck before releasing the reserve). In that moment thou, if the pin would have opened there would have not been anything to generate the force needed to open the double stowed loops of the D-bag. No airspeed to mention(just riding the reserve) and the PC was in my suit. So the risk of 2 our after the PC-to-suit insertions was rather low.
@@Leksi80 Think there is still a possibility of lines unstowing simply from the force of the main/dbag falling out of the container.
What was the cause of the total malfunction wad the pin the wrong way?
Hey, you missed the peas....
How were your legs after that rough landing
This is risking a main and reserve entanglement when you don't cutaway. Do you collapse arm wings after deploying?
@cameraflyer how much time in the sport do you have?
Is no one going to bring up the complete lack of heading control?
perkele!
Did you cut away the main risers prior to development of the reserve?
not necessery
@@not_stephen why not, couldnt the new less pressure get the main pin out causing a two out and possible entanglement?
@@LowKickMT well yeah, didn't think about the less pressure. I'm just a rookie.
should be better with cutting away.
@@not_stephen If you're pilot chute is out of its BOC and you have to go to reserve you should always cut away. Only time you shouldn't chop is when you go straight to reserve like in an emergency exit scenario at low altitude.
Well done! Find your freebag?
Awesome
Every thing was cleared a little under 2.000 what is all the hoopla.
did you start routing bridle from the bottom after this or still on the right side?
From the bottom after this incident. And I changed the bridle to a type that does not have that potential problem. So I did both improvements that should minimize the possibility to ever getting this again. Also now-a-days I have a new modern container also, but still route it from the bottom...
No cut away ........
Would an alternate bridle routing have prevented this?
circa326 yes it would have. But just for this version of a wings bridle. I have routed the bridle from the bellow ever since.
Had a pilot chute in tow on jump 76. Never get in a hurry to make a sunset load.
Finds a zip tie on the pin....
Possiksesta?
Kyllä. Sississä ei ole kahta tankoa.
That could of been so much worse. I hope you know this.
Utti :)
man pull reserve first are you crazy??? wow
Sebastian Velandia Just a brain fart. Had a pilot chute in tow so in the moment thought there was no reason to chop(having nothing out). In hind sight you should always release the main just in case if the pinlock will resolve and release the main after the reserve deploys. Already had my second reserve ride in which I did the correct prosedure.
My first malfunction was a pilot chute in tow. It was only my 32nd jump and was my first jump back from a broken knee. Misrouted the bridle so it couldn't pull the pin. I wasn't thinking to just pull my reserve. I instantly thought "look red grab red...." and did exactly that. By the way that happened back in 2000 and ever since then my sternum pops and cracks on a regular basis.
If you pull your PC and nothing happens, chop then reserve
Cutaway and then reserve or just reserve, both are correct. Cutaway and reserve is just a way to keep things simple and in this sport to keep things mentally simple save lives.
Straight to reserve if there's a total main malfunction. If your reserve fails and you can cut it away with a knife and have the altitude to do so, you may be able to get the main container open to deploy that parachute 🤙 EPs will only bring so much benefit, so you have to think outside the box. We're seeing crazy, new malfunctions all the time!

Not an expert here, can someone explain me better what happened?
