What happens when your parachute does not open 🪂🤷‍♂️

[SkidzFPV]

It opened, it just had a twist, looks like the skydiver handled it well

[RideHuntFish]

Line twists are not a malfunction. They are however, a situation that has the potential to create one.

All I could hear was: "Scissor kick, scissor kick!"

[joshhart]

I've already had 3 line twists. My 13th jump I had a line twist and an end cell enclosure. Dealt with it like a boss 💪

"Stay calm." it's the best advice

[potatogmod]

Well.. tehnicly it did open.. Just if it fails or something.. You can always use the backup

[haroldpinter]

Reach up, grab risers, pull apart while kicking

[ryanr]

Well first thing to do, I would check my altitude actually... Turn your hands upside down the way your altimeter is on you wrist and finger so you can see it while grabbing your risers. Did well but always try and see what could have been better. But no matter what in a low speed malfunction, CHECK ALTITUDE MAN. Glad you're okay tho send it and blue skies 🤘🪂🤘

[MM-matt]

It did open its just the risers got twisted. Happens allot. Pull apart risers and kick in the opposite direction of twist. 99% of the time that works. If not, cut away and pull reserve. Out of my 11 jumps (5 static line and 6 freefall) happened to me twice. I miss it and wish I had continued with it. Too old and fat now lol

perfect! 5th tandem in.. already happened

[danmusic]

I had a similar problem once upon a time on my second static line parachute jump. The toggles were all twisted up which was a little unnerving and I was in a spin. I don't know how common it is but in the end I managed to untwist them.

[WhySoNiceDude]

Weird way of undoing the twists but you got it

[RickyIcecubes]

You came mighty close to ditching the main and deploying the reserve time, but you handled it well.

[American_Devil]

This happened on my first tandem jump today. We were spinning for a few seconds

[bobandy]

Whats with the red toggles? That's not a reserve is it?

[gert]

This is a routine problem not a malfunction... Just untwist it before decision altitude😊

[popoffcity]

That kinda happened to me yesterday just not that bad

[SoulHypnotic]

Skydiving with a twist should be the titlle

[garycole]

It’s called line twists and not a total malfunction.

[philb]

My 2nd (non tandem) jump ever, that happened to me. 🙄
