Jump #77 4-way belly round into campfire

I got my own freefly-friendly rig recently and am enjoying being able to finally put tunnel skills I’ve learned into practice in the sky.

Here’s my second campfire out of a 206 at Texas Skydiving!

🇸🇪 The light posts are lava: Obstacle avoidance and proximity practice with my Prism Synapse 170

I’m doing some indoor skydiving training in Gothenburg, Sweden for the next two weeks and figured having my parafoil with me would be a fantastic way to have some fun during the down time.

I saw this patch of grass next to a road outside of the wind tunnel with these light posts and thought it would be a fun challenge to fly around them. Basically had a M shape that I could fly in.

The winds weren’t that strong and consistent (there’s a few buildings in the area and trees further back downwind which certainly contributed to some turbulence but enjoyed the challenge which kept me on my toes.

Couple of grass-touching swoops in here too.

Enjoy!

Love a day when I get to fly a 75ft tube tail

The winds could’ve been stronger and more consistent. Had to walk this one a bit lol.

Prism Synapse 170 at the Gateway Arch

Was on a roadtrip from Michigan to Texas and along the way stopped in St. Louis and visited the Gateway Arch for the first time. Brought my Prism Synapse 170 since it’s easy to carry around.

Got some flying in.

Here’s a short little POV of some light wind bliss.
