First Skydive Shooting Video
May 9th, mark the day! Something I have been wanting to do since I began skydiving was to record video. Today was that day!
Jump #170
First skydive video I recorded. I chased out Carter and Carl and video taped them while they practiced a head down, then practice docks on belly, then a couple back flips. Check out the video…
Apologies…not impressed with YouTube. The quality sucks. Or I need to keep experimenting with different settings.
I did this video in my belly suit, and had a lot more control than you will see in my later video where I am sit flying.
Jump #171
Second video, I turned on the camera…then as I exited the plane, the side of the camera box hit the inside of the plane, pulling the connector off slightly, shutting down the whole camera. Not exactly cool…oh well, mind the plane when leaving next time.
Jump #172
This jump consisted of Amber, Dave and I trying to pull off a free fly sit. Dave ended up way up high, I fell with Amber…but as much as I tried, I could not drive forward enough to catch up with her. Hell I may of been the one not driving forward at all.
Thanks to Mike G. at ChutingStar for the hookup on the camera equipment, advice…and patience!
Blue Skies!
