8. If you are falling into your canopy do not pull it all the way in. Instead continue to yank on

the bridle until it inflates away from the wreckage.

the harness and go to a feet down position.

 If possible climb into the control bar and stand with your feet spread on the base

tube.

 Try to stabilize the glider. You may be able to steer your glider with control inputs

from your feet. If possible try to face the glider into the wind for landing.

 Once you are standing in your control bar, keep your head up and arms in. If

possible evaluate the condition of your equipment, pull in any instruments that

have become dislodged and secure them for impact. At this time be sure your hook

knife is readily available.

 Depending on your particular situation, you should attempt to let the glider take most

of the impact of landing rather than your body. If you have good control and your

glider is still flying, you may consider dropping into your harness for a good flair

before impact.

 If you are not able to climb into the control bar try to get into a feet-to-earth

position. Prepare for a PLF (Parachute Landing Fall) by keeping your eyes

focused on the horizon, bringing your legs together with knees slightly bent, and

your arms in. Try to allow your legs to take the landing impact as you roll from the

side of your legs to the side of your hip, to the side of your shoulder. If you are

drifting while you are under canopy, prepare to roll in the same direction you are

drifting.

 Immediately upon landing, unhook from your glider and parachute to prevent the

possibility of being dragged.

How to stop deployment problems before they begin

Repack at least once a year and practice parachute extraction before each repack!

If there is any question about whether your parachute is properly placed in the deployment

bag, hook the handle on a solid object and pull on the bridle. The bridle, lines then canopy

should snake out of the deployment bag in a smooth orderly sequence. (DO NOT ATTEMPT

TO REPACK YOUR OWN PARACHUTE WITHOUT APPROPRIATE GUIDANCE OR

TRAINING.)

Note: When you have your ballistically deployed parachute repacked ask the packer to disconnect the

rocket and pull the lanyard to simulate the rocket pulling the parachute out of the container. It should pull

out smoothly. This process should be repeated after repacking if there is any question about how the

parachute is packed.
