I was actually able to land a complete step through one time. Was able to twist my risers under my toggles to land the main safely, then I never used a packer again. The kind I had could have been missed a lot easier than this one could be. What a mess!

It almost looked like after you fixed your reserve you calmed down enough to make sure and see where your primary landed. I wonder why some reserves are white. You would think they would want them to be optic orange or red to announce and emergency and be easier for potential rescuers to find.

I don't have a lot of jumps (about 60), and I've only had one mal - a minor line twist. It surprised me by pinning my head down to my chest, but I got the risers pulled apart quickly enough and everything was ok. The coincidental part of this; it was in ZHills, and I too had paid $7. I had a tiny little uneasy feeling about the packing shed (I chalked it up to being a newby there - not wanting to disrupt their system with questions), but hey, they must pack a LOT of rigs every day, right? Upon landing, I did have them pack my rig for the trip home, but for peace of mind, I had it repacked at the home DZ. I'm not placing blame on anyone, these things just happen. Now, a packer not finding a step-through?

yarpos I had a step through on my AFF2 jump. It was on a PD210 so no twists and it flew straight but I couldn't find my toggles until I pulled the risers apart. Front was rear, rear was front. The malfunction flash cards didn't show a step through so I just stared at it awhile trying to figure out where the Hell my toggles were. Released the brakes and control check worked so I landed it. I didn't dare turn any more than I had to and landed without a flare. Just flew it into the ground and PLF. I learned to pack my own as soon as possible. I check my lines unlike the 'pros'.

@ClarksonA64
4 жыл бұрын
Edison Matos kind of hard to explain, it’s when the risers (the 4 bits that hold to parachute onto the backpack part ) have been step through. Caused by a few things but mainly by the parachute going over the top of you on landing or the skydiver stepping through the lines, thus causing the twist you saw. An example would be if you put a swing set through its self you cause a twist in the chains. I’m sure someone will correct me more but that’s basically it.
