@OSCAR1777 Yes - I'll try to be more manly in the future.

Nice jump. Pilot chute wrapped around the wrist sucks. Did that once in a normal skydive and almost went in with it. Pointing up to the sky got it away though and life is good. We have a guy we call Spike who jumps from tandem gliders at altitudes of like 700 feet with a B.A.S.E rig... He shows up in Utah a lot.

Thanks for the comment. In retrospect, a BASE rig would have been a really good idea on this jump as I didn't end up in the saddle until around 1000 feet.

Well at least you waited till your chute opened to scream like a girl, j/k.
I've taken thermals up over 10,000' hang gliding, looks as if you could've used some thermic activity that day(weather doesnt ever cooperates, does it?)and got a couple thousand extra feet.
I have seen this done before, at Mt Hull in CA, launch is ~4,000' above the nearby landing area(a few miles away). You can get over the LZ with about ~3,000' of altitude, nearly 60% more altitude than you had.

Yeah - we had hoped to be up at least 2500-3000 for the cut away. I had intended to ride the hang glider down if we were under 2000, but I changed the rules on the fly. That was a dumb idea but fortunately I didn't win a Darwin Award.
Thanks so much for stopping by to leave a comment!
