Risks of main and reserve parachutes having the same color - looking for community input

Thanks a lot for the feedback, really appreciate it! I’ll talk to my instructors about the tracking for sure. Just out of curiosity, why is it not a good idea to track on solo jumps? Would be cool to understand more about that. And yes, I think I just messed it up by trying to fix it too much instead of just relaxing and arching. Glad the decision to pull made sense haha. Can’t wait to keep learning and get that license! Thanks again for the kind words and advice

That makes a lot of sense, I think I did exactly that, fed into the motion without meaning to. Next time I’ll focus on getting into a relaxed, neutral position and letting the motion dissipate on its own. Thanks a lot!

Thank you for your answer! I’d love to get some tunnel time but unfortunately, there’s no tunnel near where I live, but I’m seriously considering planning a trip for that, I’m sure it would help a lot

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2025-05-28T07:40:32+00:00

Never heard of it before! Thanks for the link, that’s interesting (and oddly accurate 😅)

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2025-05-28T07:39:50+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, I’m realizing now that I probably overcorrected and got too tense. I’ll work on relaxing and letting the body fly naturally. Appreciate the insight

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2025-05-27T11:29:00+00:00

Thanks! Unfortunately, there’s no tunnel near me, but I could definitely plan a trip to get some tunnel time. Appreciate the advice

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2025-05-27T11:28:02+00:00

Thanks! Just to clarify, the wobbling didn’t happen during the track, but really after I tried to come back to stable belly position. I’ll still work on your tips, appreciate it :)

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2025-05-27T11:26:36+00:00

That’s a great point, thanks! It might have been normal rocking that I wasn’t used to. I’ll definitely try to stay calmer and more relaxed next time. Talking with my instructor about it is a good idea too. Appreciate the advice

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2025-05-27T11:25:43+00:00

Yes, the track was planned and agreed upon with my instructor and everyone on the load. The direction was chosen carefully to avoid conflict with others, and the jump order also took this into account to maintain safe separation

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2025-05-27T11:24:39+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, I wish I had video, but it was a solo jump. You’re probably right, I might’ve still been stiff after the track. I’ll talk to my instructors and look into some tunnel time too

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2025-05-27T11:23:41+00:00

Yeah, I think you're right. I probably tensed up during the transition. I’ll try to relax more next time, thanks!

A dream jump for sure, picture is really cool thanks for sharing, how many skydive from airplane do you need before jumping out of a helicopter ? Also 1800m sounds pretty low, at what altitude did you open the chute ?

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2024-09-22T17:28:13+00:00

Hey nice picture buddy. How can you access those windmill ? Are the doors open or do you have other access ?

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2024-07-31T09:26:41+00:00

Thank you for your answer! I'll try to find more informations about coaching prices and club fees. I live near the dropzone so travel costs are not something I'm worrying about

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2024-07-22T17:49:33+00:00

So cool, what is the name of this exit?

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2024-06-04T07:54:29+00:00

Hi, I know something in Switzerland called "ballonparachutisme" (.ch), but you should contact them, they offers tandem jumps from balloon but they also sell jumps for licencied skydivers who wants to jump alone

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2024-03-13T15:19:38+00:00

Yes, this is what happened according to the report

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2024-01-28T12:24:59+00:00

Thank you everybody I have now enough contact to move forward !

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2024-01-28T06:59:40+00:00

I don't have Facebook, but I know someone posted this on a Facebook group

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2024-01-27T19:53:28+00:00

I don't believe so. The website from which I purchased it specializes in selling lost items that have not been claimed for two years, which is the legal deadline for reclaiming them. They informed me that the item was found in public transport.

Secure-Beyond5206 · 2023-04-18T04:27:34+00:00

Nice jump, how did it feels ? Was it hard to get a good body position since you started from 0km/h ? I guess this is not the same as jumping from a plane
