Only Skydivers Know Why The Birds Sing



One of primeval man 's desire, the desire to fly, in the last century has become a reality, inevitable reality without which our world would not be so available.
The largest number of people flying today to bridge large distances in a short time, however, there are those who fly exclusively for pleasure and love of flying.
Flying for pleasure can not compare an unparalleled, simply must experience it.
It is because, it will not be much even try to convey to you what a feeling, but I want to meet you at least a little with one of the most popular aero sports, skydiving-TV (sky diving)







Start parachuting linked to the Frenchman Andre-Jacques Garnerin, who 22 October in 1797. years with a height of nearly 1000 meters successfully jumped from a balloon, three years later, his wife Jeanne-Genevieve Garnerin became the first parachutist.
The creator of the parachute was a famous artist Leonardo DaVinci, which is another 1483 years imagined and sketched a parachute.
Skydiving at the beginning of the twentieth century, used mainly for military purposes, but in 1951. The parachuting and officially became a sports discipline.
To deal with this sport primarily need is a strong desire and a little courage at first, medical certificate and completed parachute training.
Medical certificate may be removed at any authorized medical institution, it is necessary for you by the adult or to have written parental consent if you are between 16 and 18.
As for parachute training it is much simpler and shorter than a few decades ago and depending on the mode on the first day of training, you can make your first jump.
To permit the sport parachutist in our country can compete after 50 rebounds, until then means that you are a student and you're practically in training, however, continues each subsequent jump parachutist has an opportunity to learn something new.
In the mid eighties made a tandem parachute that carries two people.
Tandem skydiving is a revolutionary popularized, and unlike the former managed by weeks of training, is now less than an hour you can prepare for your first jump and experience the same in the full light, with great height and with a long delay, the so-called free fall.
For a tandem jump you do not need medical certificate.
In addition to classical training and tandem skydiving, very popular training AFF (Accelerated Free Fall - accelerated training in free fall), a pupil of his first jump, accompanied by two instructors experiencing longer freefall and during a few jumps student progresses incomparably faster than the use of classical methods. The only drawback of this training is its price.
Upon completion of training parachutist can be dated by one or more disciplines target figures, relative, relative work, canopy relative work, free style, sufring sky, sky flying, swoop etc. ..
Depending on the discipline of using different types of parachutes.



Equipment

As an essential part of the equipment in the first place should be mentioned parachute.
Initially they used a round dome, which are difficult or even controlled unmanageable.
These parachutes are yet to be removed from use and are used mainly for military purposes.
In sport parachuting for a long time used a parachute-type wing, which is far more manageable and provides a very soft landing if used properly. Each paratrooper carries two parachutes, the main and backup.
Reserve parachute is used in case of failure of the main parachute which happens very rarely, and almost always is the result of poor packaging of the main parachute, because the reserve parachute packed very carefully and must be re-packaged to every 3 months.
In addition to the parachute essential communications system (a system that connects the parachute and parachutist), backpack in which it places a packed parachute, parachutist pilot or lever to activate the parachute, vending, altimeter, helmet, goggles (brile), coveralls, gloves, etc.. .



discipline in skydiving

Jump to the goal, the goal of this event is that the parachutist jump from 1000 meters lands a marked position, the position is marked with a disc diameter of 30 cm (popularly called pancake) at which the zero is in the center and diameter of 3 inches.
The most important piece of equipment in this discipline is a parachute, it is a parachute-type wing that is designed to allow high accuracy in landing.
Figurative jumps performed from a height of 2200 meters, in the course of 35 seconds of free fall must perform four twists and two flips in the schedule that is determined on earth, is necessary to accomplish the task as accurately as possible in the shortest period of time for which the need is very great speed in freefall. For this reason, use the smooth and tight clothing, small parachutes (due to lower volumes in the ranch).
Light falls in figurative jumps amounts to 300 km / h.
The winner was a paratrooper who has four rebounds in the shortest time performance, while the imprecision penalize additional seconds.
The relative jumps are leaps involving more than one parachutist, the goal is to make a link formation and maintain a specified time.
World record in such leaps made in Thailand 2006th as a formation of 400 paratroopers.
Relatively Work (RW) is intentional maneuvering of two or more paratroopers, maneuvering paratroopers perform the assigned characters, jumps performed from a height of 3200 meters.
The team consists of 2,4 or 8 paratrooper paratroopers and cameramen, and the goal is to be in free fall time quarterbacks all specify characters that are specific to the country, the trial is based on footage from the ground as well as footage from the air.



Free Style, parachutist jump from 4000 meters running a series of prescribed movements which can add some at their own discretion, with competitors required and cameraman on the basis of whose recordings are rated jump.
There may also participate more paratroopers what we're synchronized Free Style.



Sky Surfing is a discipline with a flying plank, plank opens up new dimensions in performance figures during freefall.
Thanks to a specially designed jumpsuit so-called wing suit developed discipline sky flying.
With the help of such overalls parachutist moves horizontally rather than vertically higher speed which also significantly prolonged the time of free fall.



The relative Canopy Work (CRW), in this discipline are performed jumps from 3200 meters where paratroopers immediately open their parachutes, skydivers intentionally manev1rišu their parachutes making figures.
Maximum formation so far accounted for 85 paratroopers.
Canopy Piloting (swooping) represents another attractive parachuting discipline, it's about piloting the parachute landing of the most commonly performed landing on the water surface, which enables the measurement of trace landing, the record in this discipline keeps Jay Moledzki and it is 206.85 meters



Paratroopers usually jump from heights of 3-5 km.
Greater heights bring with them drastically lower temperatures and the lack of oxygen.
Yet despite all the above mentioned disciplines largest number of parachutists jumping but not competing with the aim alone or in relative jumps with his friends enjoying the feel that they can not be compared with anything else I've gone through.
