    Hi Catherine!
    I'm a B Cop with 227 jumps.
    Just experienced my 1st cut away July 3rd.
    Canadian skydiving is a short season, and working on a C Cop.
    Hope to be in the sky July 6th for a canopy course.
    Jumped with Brian Germain 10 years ago, great guy.
    Keep up the good work!

    Flying and landing came really natural and easy to me, I think because I grew up flying stunt kites which seemed very similar to controlling my canopy.

    Engineering alert when you land with a great big long lever arm called a wing attached of strings and hanging on your weight with your foot the lever arm inside that joint is very tiny if you can hit with both feet at the same time you take the rotation out on those displaced ankle joints that have a longer lever arm so it's less damaging birds land with both feet at once usually.

  • @mr.invisible3770
    @mr.invisible3770 2 роки тому

    Last time I went skydiving I broke my leg on landing due to used, improper fitting fitting rental equipment (The leg strap slipped on a very hard pull and snapped my leg backwards, causing so much pain I couldn't use it). The drop zone near me does not have any better selections. Im at 64 jumps. I swore I would never use rented gear again. Saving for my own new full rig and having a hard time justifying buying a 210. last jump was on 210. Any advice from anyone on buying a 190? Good idea or bad idea?

    • @MisterK-YT
      @MisterK-YT 2 роки тому

      I have no advice for you, but I triple-fractured and totally dislocated my right ankle on my 3rd jump (and hopped onto my feet right after “landing” to gather the canopy real quick cuz there was some wind, not knowing I had broken it, and instantly felt that it was fkd and went down to my ass when I tried to stand on it). Could see the bone dislocated above my shoe. Mannnnn it sucked for damn near a year. I can only imagine how much worse yours was 😱. Take care mate.

    in the minute 11:12 he ( ua-cam.com/users/BSGermain ) shows a drawing that i found very interesting, he talks about glide ratio and having a rough estimate between my glide ratio and the wind against me (when facing the wind) can he elaborate on that, or even make a video so that i can do it by my own(like for example what could be my glide ratio on my sabre 2 150 etc etc)

    I was on a DZ in the 90's and swooping was gaining popularity. Then a guy comes "swooping in" misjudged a few variables and hit hard...affectively ripping his ass cheek off....skydiving is shits and giggles enough without swooping. But go ahead...I just don't watch.
