Here is my 4th jump of the event. I was the first man out of the first pass so I included all of the pre jump procedures, including a nice solo performance of "I believe I can fly" from Stratos Reaper before it was time to exit. Thanks to you and Kraz for JM and safety duties and Tater as Loadmaster, twists aside it was a good jump.
Jumper in the door at the 4 minute mark.
This landing is also a good example of be prepared to do a PLF in any direction, as you can see I am all set for a rear right PLF, but about 10 feet off the ground I am thrown into a Front Left. You can hear a bit of concern right as I hit but all was smooth.
Another trick for jumpers that fly flags, if the winds support doing so, you can pull in the lower set of suspension lines to deflate your chute rather than chasing it down and dragging the flag with you. If the winds don't allow this, then just pop a canopy release assembly so you don't get dragged or drag the flag with you.
