Holy shit
-
@ClutchMuchGaming the second one can fail actually
-
I'm not lookin' forward to my first cutaway...scares the shit outta me.
-
cuz it will be called 1st so u will end up with only one . ha ha

@ClutchMuchGaming i think the 2nd chute is much more basic and less manoeuvrable and its release system is different. The main chute gets deployed and packed over and over again during the day but the reserve is only checked and packed every couple of months or so (i think) by an experienced and licensed packer. Experienced skydivers can use really small sophisticated main chutes that allow them to pull off all kinds of crazy impressive stuff! but probably at the cost of some reliability

@ClutchMuchGaming Probly we say the 2nd never fails because we don't use it a lot. But if the 2nd one fails after the first refuse to open, this is a very bad day. x)
-
@27Juicygirl that was a good day , a bad day would have been having the main canopy get tangled up with the reserve
-
@ClutchMuchGaming because you cant afford to have a rigger repack your reserve every jump , and only a qualified rigger can

daym that was close..
A parachute has 2 parachutes in it. If the 1st one fails then there is a 2nd. And they say the 2nd one never fails.
So why don't they just open that 2nd one first?

Because if the second doesn't open, you will never hear about it
