I'm glad you got it sorted out. I'm not reading through all of the comment and maybe it's just the camera view but why did your reserve not deploy immediately after? I assume no RSL.

what is a bag lock?

I feel you...I had my first cutaway on my 22nd jump! Line dump broke 4 of my A lines. Pretty scary stuff...

thats sick man!! i had a chop on my 13th jump! had a bag lock!! that got the heart going haha good practice tho..

The RSL only pulls the reserve pin initiating the reserve parachute deployment sequence after a cut-away. It's NOT attached to the reserve freebag.

I have skyhook. Haven't had a chance to test it out yet but from all the footage I've seen I feel safe with it. Pulling the reserve in a stable position is the ideal scenario but what happens when you have a malfunction below 500 feet? That's when the rsl and skyhook really make a difference. According to the inventor, Bill Booth, they had BASE jumpers doing demo cutaways at around 100 ft AGL. All I can say is I hope I never have to experience that!

That was an PdF Atom 0, worked just fine.
Der Reserveschirm hat ganz schnell geõffnet, Gott sei dank. Hoffentlich passiert es mir nie.
Wie viel Absprungen hast gehabt wann's los ging?

Hi, what you see there was my 39th jump.
I guess none of us wishes for a reserve ride, but before each jump I take a moment to think about what to do in this case. It certainly can't hurt to be prepared.

Well, fresh from training. Maybe it's better this way than with ground school a thousand jumps past.
