Reserve parachute packing video

Reserve parachutes are not used in Speed-Flying very much but still a good video for reference.

VERY Important Safety Note:
Use at own risk, If in any doubt, you should get your reserve re-packed by a experienced and fully qualified parachute rigger.

Results are definitely on the low side. For speedflying higher settings reduce the chance of losing a ski (which you might not be able to retrieve) without increasing the risk of injury much. I sometimes speedfly with my fixed telemark gear with no problems.

The Olympic Speedskiing run at les Arcs provided the ideal opportunity for Francois Bon , GIN Team Pilot, to see what speed he could achieve with his GIN 8 square metre speedflying proto. In a straight line on the very steep piste, and with the help of the European Spatial Agency, and French National Science Institute, a GPS system gave the result of 146.46 Kph. (91 mph)

This World straight line Speedflying record is asking to be broken next year!!

see: http://www.gingliders.com/news/00000167.php

? Is there any video of the world record attempts ?
