Skydiving Malfunctions - Crazy Line Twists & Low Altitude

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 decision would have been to perform emergency procedures at a higher altitude, rather than fight the malfunction.

I remember when they taught us in training that part of our emergency procedures was to give our canopy the finger.

the double middle finger was badass! glad you got down ok!

Lol

And that's how you get your cardio in while skydiving. I've had many line twists. Always got out of them.

I had the same thing yesterday. I cut away at 1800. I recovered everything. I felt the same way when I had to cut away from line twists.

[@le-bingxie1636]

twist in the wrong direction......

[@rickdiaz100]

Why was he twisting it worse?

[@edvinholmstrom5895]

I think you made it worse by twisting it down before it stopped spinning

Left out the part where the stuident started tracking straight down jump run

Body position!
