  • beautiful decent. I heard they stopped all further use of the t-11 because of one soldier's death

  • I LOVE THE T-10s ! Day or night they were GREAT ! I hated the -1 Bravos . Oh they sucked ! Always feet,ass,and head ! T-10s I always pull my risers down and hard and damned you could almost get away with a "standing landing"but I dont want the 1SG or the CO putting their jump boots up my ass .

  • @111khristopher Congrats. I'm a former 19k myself. I wanna do a tandem skydive next year after I get my spine fused. I've always enjoyed watching new equipment developed and implemented, so I can't wait to see the next version of the Abrams tank. I hope this T11 works out better for the folks that have to use it and pack em, such as yourself.

  • @HauptmannAmerica 3 months i started in july n graduated september 28

  • Now Army investigators say Staff Sgt. Jamal Clay fell to his death last month because his T-11 parachute malfunctioned. Clay died during a training exercise at Fort Bragg in North Carolina.

    An internal Army memo says investigators found "potential packing, inspection, quality control and functionality problems" with the T-11 parachute system.

  • How long is the training school to become a parachute rigger?

  • Well they didnt mention that it takes 6-8 seconds for your slip to respond.If you dont what that is then imagine ur car reacting to your steering wheel 5 seconds after the fact and 2 seconds before the turn. Weather varies from day to day so your not gonna have a soft landing all the time. I've landed softer in T-10s than i have T-11s. Its harder to pack takes longer to deploy and it wieghs an extra 10 lbs.not worth the extra weight. i work this equipment all day. It sucks.

  • nice landings on 2:35 :)))))))))))))))))))))))))
