How are your landings going? Is it a challenge for you?

I’m close to giving up.
You missed an important thing you do: always say "yahoo/yihihi/yihaa" after landing for extra accuracy and coolness ! Good video ! ;)
Hahaha right on!!
Super helpful. Broke my foot in 7 places on my second landing. Watching these to give me confidence to land when I heal. It would be super helpful if you put when you flared the different stages on the approach. Thanks!
Outstanding. It may be worthwhile to see if you can do a split screen view of your POV and simultaneous video from the ground in order to see both the POV and your actual flare. Failing that, a voice over “Stage One....Stage Two.” Were it not for travel restrictions I would volunteer to be your videographer on the ground. Ah, this is the end of October. How about next season? Perhaps you could travel to Chicagoland Skydiving Center in Rochelle, IL.
The most useful video for new solo skydivers I have found. My legs are really sore from sloppy landings. I'll watch this a few times each day. Judging distance is a lot harder while parachuting than it is driving a car
A definite save to my skydiving playlist. Thanks for this vid.
Glad to know I'm not the only one with a skydiving playlist
I hope there is a lot of SV videos! ;)
Btw, which video should we do next?
I’ve been practicing landings for the past 4 hours on UA-cam? Sweet.
I just got my A license after starting the AFF course early summer. You're videos motivated, educated, and helped me so much going into the progression. This video was especially important, because it was only fear I had when I started the course, the landing. I watched these over and over, listening and watching everything and I walked out so many of my landings. Thank you for making this, you made this journey so much easier!
Interestingly airplane pilots learn to look at the horizon when landing.
Might be a good tip for skydivers as well.
Thank You so much for this video! what a great idea :) This is really going to help us beginner 0 -25 jumpers!! In the same vein - on your next video - could you do a entire jump from your exit to the landing from your camera as a first person POV with just the natural wind sounds etc. that would be awesome to see. thanks heaps!
That last one was just solid gold 🤩 Thank you so much for sharing this compilation! Very inspiring.
I was surpised how much this video actually helps. Hell yeah!!!!
Great vídeo! Landing is always chalenging for me. Even after 20 years skydiving I had my foot broken in a stupid land, nothing serious but I injuried myself. Content like this is always worth watching.
lowering your shadow is reflected like a mirror in front of you and is seen when you arrive!! super !! and Notice that you don't wear gloves. Your hands don't get cold!!? thank you very much for your time
Hey Jose, not during summer!
The last landing was what I was doing too much of on no wind landings and finally found my point for the flare and touchdown and now my Pilot canopy is really more fun to fly and land even in no wind days. There was something in my timing from my previous jumping days back in the 90s when I had a Raven 3 versus the canopy’ of today with my Pilot 210. Thanks for the great videos, they have really helped me along getting back into the sport.
Super Marty!
I love this video! So much fun to practice along with your landings. Thank you!!
Thank you for THIS!! I'm working on my A-license and you've been helping me every step of the way!! 🙂
Yes! Awesome! Thank you for all the great content you have worked so hard to share with us all. As a newer skydiver, I appreciate your style very much!
This was great! I was looking for a video just like this! Thank you!
Hi Catherine, thanks so much for this video... I watched it loads and today I went back after 18 months away from skydiving and did two great landings in nil wind. Your video is SO helpful thank you!!!
This is awesome! I am so glad to see this. I will be practicing daily
Really great videos and tips! tks for sharing! for sure I will continue checking your tips!
A lot of really good info. Thank you so much for posting this
You have no idea how much this video helped me. I had a couple of hard landings during my initial ones and broke two of my fingers due to rough a=landing coz i was doing the flaring right. This video gave me an understanding on how high i should flare to have a proper landing. i wish someday to jump with you on a fun jump! Thanks much! appreciate it!
Thanks for the video!
Great video. Thank you!
Thanks, great video! I'm planning to return to skydiving after being away from it for a number of years, and videos like this can be really helpful. As well as whet my appetite for getting back into the sky!
Very nice point of views, very very helpful. Thank you !
Thanks to you for watching!!
Thank you so much for the video, a great idea 👍 please keep it up...
That is a beautiful free landing area, i wish i had this too! Looks no dangerous at all!
Wow, wish I'd had something like this back in the mid 70"s . Had what was then called a Stratostar, a 5 cell square. My first 10 or so landings were ugly, but no injuries. My last jump of the evening, no wind. Flared too soon and landed on my back breaking both arms. Was never told I should practice stalling my canopy.
This is extremely helpful I wish I would’ve found your page at the start of my AFF program, some really terrible landings to my name but all with a lot of learning involved, thankyou for giving me confidence for my next jump in a few days
I LOVE this!!! I need to watch this in VR. I am redoing a AFF jump tomorrow and bruised my tailbone pretty good in the last jump 😖 our LZ is surrounded by cacti too...That was a fun landing 😂 Love your videos. Great to have a female role model in the sport. Thank you!!!
Thank you Catherine. The most helpful landing video I have ever seen. Stood up looking at the spot and seeing if my timing matched yours. Brilliant.
Awesome Mick!
Hello how are you!! My name is José Maria fascinated with the videos !! 10-point super professionals; It shows that you are super detailed! and take #13 Excellent!!! Excellent when you come traveling
Great vid as always!!
great vid, thanks fpr sharing
thanks that makes nice practice
Nice Video....thank you Catherine
This video was definitely helpful as I am just now going through the AFF portion. I completed my Category A jump and passed but my landing was a bit hard. I'm adding this video to my arsenal of references.
Great video!! Thank you! :)
Nice video! I like the final youhou at the end of each landing :-D
Another great video! I'm getting ready for my first canopy course. Have you gotten your Sabre3 yet?
Thank you!
Awesome video! Loved watching all you landings! Thanks. Blue skys!
Thanks for watching!!
Superb 👍👍👍its very helpfull .Thanks soo much👍
That's a beautiful drop zone!
that was really fun to watch. i laughed and then hit like😄
Great idea!
went to land my first AFF as a tandem (legs up), remembered last second it wasnt a TAFF and put legs down. saved my back, but stuffed my ankle.
lessons learned: flare FULLY and PLR :)
dont flare fully - win stupid prizes XD
thanks for doing this compilation.
I have an idea for this that might be helpful. Say “go” just as you start your stage/flare. I could match what I’m seeing
Another great and very helpful video and a great resource for instructors to help their students. Should also help AFF students with their landings, well done and keep up the great work.
You are amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Good vibes from 🇧🇷
Thank you for this video
Yhhh-haaaa 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Thanks my friend!!
Informative video thanks for that Kate. I have questions, what the best way to landing ; sliding or on feet? I saw some skydivers slides &others landing on feet.
2nd/ does rig differences effect for landing? Example the big rig(tendem) & small rig (solo)?
I'm interested in skydiving.
No skydiving school at home.
Thanks Kate for all ur job.
I liked these landings. I hope I can land my first tm
Thnks for it
Haha j'adore le dernier atterrissage ! Sympa d'entendre ton accent Québécois en français, il ne sonne pas du tout pareil qu'en anglais. Merci pour toutes tes super vidéos ! 🤘
This is great! You should film one for VR!
GRACIAS...
Hey, this is a very helpful and great Video, thank you, for creating this 👍👍👍! I will share it and hope, it would be helpful for other skydivers, which have problems with their landings (like me from time to time 🙈😂) or beginner! Thank you so much!
Thanks Julia for watching and sharing the word! Where do you jump?
@@SkydiveVibes my homebase is in Germany, the town called Bruchsal, and my skydiving Club called FSC Bruchsal.
This year I had a few bad/hard landings, because my eyes have turned bad, and I didn't noticed it immediately. A big problem was, that I became unsure for the flare, and often I flared too late or only half, what does the landings not better.
I detected, that the Problem were my eyes and I went immediately to the eye doctor.
As I got my new contact lenses, the view was different like before and I had to "learn" the landings/the flare time new 😂. At this time, I saw your last landing Video, which helped me so much.
I needed nearly 10-15 jumps, until it was ok.
Hai catharine, Just wondering.. how many jumps you have, your canopy size and when did you downsize to your current canopy. I know its personal, so please mind not to answer if don't wish to. Thank you.
Hi, thank you for sharing this video, it's very helpful form me! :)
Awesome thanks!
Thanks for the video!
Why most of your flares slides to the left at the second stage? You make the first step with a left leg?
Excellent!... I wonder about the possibility of transposing your advice for the practice of paramotoring?
Im new to skydiving and my landing really annoys me! lol your videos are helping quite a lot.
One question, is your slider kept tied up? If so, why?
I love these videos but i wish there was any way to know when you start the flare?
i am not a skydiver at all. i fly a cessna and watching the video clip i was thinking that when you flare your chute are you converting vertical travel into horizontal travel and bleeding the speed off as i do with the cessna. eg final approach glide path holding speed above stall of wing then on flare converting speed into a balance of lift and drag to delay wheels touching ground. ps love the vidios you could call me a virtual skydiver with over 300 jumps by sitting on my sofa .
is it possible to add into the videos the point where you go half brakes then full flair?
im having trouble hearing and visualizing when the movements actually happens.
Great tool :-)
Would be great to have a sideways perspective too and a vocal on the 2 stages timing :)
Yeaha! Alonze Madame !
What kind of canopy & what wing loading? Looks more like my landings under a rented Pilot loaded around 1.1 - my canopy is Sabre2 loaded around 1.3, & I flare late most of the time. Unless I intentionally try to flare high, then I do flare high, lose airspeed, & the canopy doesn't want to shut down.
Awesome video! Curious though, why do you seem to have a constant left favoring movement? Almost as if you are reaching with your left foot, or flaring more with your left arm more so... unless its wind drift, but it doesn't seem like it. Just curious! Great video tho! Keep up the good work!
The wind at our DZ has a tendency to come from that direction so I correct with my harness to face it. But I noticed that too myself. ;)
A bit late to comment but, it would be great if you could put the moment when you flare maybe in the subtitles? I mean, I think I can hear the wind but maybe I am doing it completely wrong! :D
Thanks in any case for your fantastic videos.
Thanks!! So useful!! I'm a little unsure when you start your flare, as we can't see your arms? Is it when it gets quieter? Or is that when you finish the flare?
Yes quieter is when I do my flare.
@@SkydiveVibes thanks! ☺️
Maybe you could do one and literally shout out “START FLARING NOW!”...so that us newbies get a better idea. Thank u for all the helpful tips🤘🏼
@@SkydiveVibes could you put annotations on when you begin the flare? I’m just starting out and the landing/parachute control is the scariest part to me. I’ve watched almost all your videos now and they’re super helpful!
What size sabre2 & loading?
Hi ! Im going to buy my first altimeter and it will be very helpful if can recomend me one, i have in mind the dekunu one or maybe something more traditional like Viso II.
If you had the posibbilities to acquire anyone of those wich one do you choose ?
Also if you could do a video comparing smartaltimeters vs digital altimerts it will be wonderfull.
Thanks, your videos are worthwhile.
Thanks Alexis. Howa many jumps do you have. If it will be your first digital altimeter, I would recommend a Viso II. Hop on store.skydivevibes.com/ ;)
Im a begginer, i have like 25 jumps. Thanks for your advice, but i only want to imvest one time in the gear jaja the dekunu one is more expensive just for 100 dollars, that why im so confused and i dont know what to do, also some reviews about the dekunu arent good and maybe an expert like you can help me.
I have read the caracteristics Between Ares II and Viso II there are basicly the same, which is better brand ?
@@alexislopez2287 yes they are basically the same but the Ares has a bigger screen and it is made of Aluminium instead of plastics. The dekunu or Aon X2 has a lot of extra data that can be just confusing for someone starting out. To be honest, you'll be glad with your Ares or Viso for more than 200 jumps. ;) And it keeps a great value on the market.
Great video and nice tips. I find it a bit hard though to estimate when you start your flare in many videos as there's a bit of a lag between the flare and the wind noise reduction. Though saying it video 13 is pretty good as you can see your shadow on the ground and it seems like you start the flare roughly at around the tree level if I'm not mistaken. Thanks again!
Thanks for the heads up about video 13 :)
The wind sound is key there. I agree it is not always clear but again. It gives you a rough perspective. ;)
I always panic when I see the ground rushing at me and freeze up. I'm the worst jumper
Do not worry, we all feel that way at first!
Instead of staring at the ground, try to spot on the horizon next time. It will provide you a better perception of how fast and how far away you are reaching the ground.
It works perfectly for me; I hope that tip can be your game-changer as well.
Thank @Skydive Vibes for creating this channel for us to communicate.
Super
What's your wing load?
Is it possible to set your altimeter to go off a few feet before you should start to flare? lol
Whats a loading u have and how many jumps? )
I have problems to flare completely. It seems hard for my arms. So when I flare one arm is slightly more down than the other one. Does someone has the same problem? Or have any tips? Thanks :)
When you go to your first stage, it can help to bring your elbows up behind you slightly rather than keeping them next to your ribs. Then, make your 2nd stage motion more like a chinup than a tricep extension, which will give you more power. Doing lat pulldowns and any tricep/bicep lifts at the gym will also help.
@@kelsey124090 thank you for your tips :) I‘ll try it out!!!
i like.very good 👍🍉🤣
Thanks Amy!
I don't get the first step. I'm always to late und crush on the ground.. 😕
What canopy do you jump ?
Where are you from?
❤👍
Firsttttt
Hi Catherine, The BEST video AND Detailed instruction on flaring and landing I have seen in the past 5 years. Thank you for putting it on U tube. With all the injuries that happen on landing there should be hundred's of flaring video's, YOUR THE BEST, Keep up the good work.
Just quietly... this video would’ve saved me a sore and bruised anus bone, tail feather sprain, bouncy rolly polly landing a couple of weeks ago... thank you for the vid 😉😁 and now to practice twinkle toe landings 😆
Yee ha
miss ur accent
