Friday Freakout: CRAZY - Grandma Falls Out of Skyd...
OMG! This has to be one of the craziest/scariest tandem videos I’ve ever seen. Kinda makes me feel sick just watching it, but luckily this tandem instructor’s negligence ends without casualty. Long story short, this 80 year-old grandma does a tandem skydive for her birthday and nearly falls out of the harness because it’s not... Watch Video »

Intentional Cutaways. Many, Many Cutaways
Cutaways are a strange thing… we don’t want to have them, but we also want to know all about them so we feel prepared if and when we ever have one. One way to prepare is to do an intentional cutaway on a system with a tertiary reserve like the one in this video, which... Watch Video »
Voss Show Reel... Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool.
HOLY… SHIT. Damn, I don’t even know where to begin. Freakin’ downright not-fucking-around amazing footage. I mean, a snowmobiler does a flip over a swooping parachute. And that’s after killer paraglider and swoop demo footage, on top of swooping the mountains, and jumping over snow-capped everything. This is a must watch! These Scandanavians do some...

This exit is just plane painful. Pun intended. Excuse me one moment while I put on my helmet… I was just reminded why we (should) all wear one. I might even consider wearing two after watching this :) Watch Video »
Hardcore HALO: Skydiving From 30,000 Feet
This is what it looks like to do a HALO skydive from 30,000 feet (otherwise known as High Altitude Low Opening)… pretty quiet in the airplane before exit, sipping on oxygen. Mmm, delish. I love how this tandem student was like, “13,000 feet?? No way. I wanna jump from 30,000!” Hardcore. Now that’s some decent... Watch Video »

Friday Freakout: Paratrooper Survives 50-Foot Cuta...
Talk about a close call. This has to be one of the LOWEST cutaways I’ve ever seen. Two paratroopers get wrapped up and one of them chops his main less than 50 feet (give or take) above the ground, and luckily his reserve opens 15 feet before impact. Pardon me while I change my underwear! Watch Video »

What do you do when your AFF student’s toggle comes unstowed in freefall? Do nothing? Watch it flop around like spaghetti? The instructor in this video had a pretty sweet (slash scary, slash dangerous) save, and managed to unstow the other toggle on deployment. Luckily it worked; the student had a nice on-heading opening and... Watch Video »
