JUMPING THE VECTOR 3
DEPLOYING THE MAIN PARACHUTE
Before a jumper uses a hand deploy system, they should first practice the procedures on the ground
under an appropriately rated instructor’s supervision.
DEPLOYING THE RESERVE PARACHUTE
Before a jumper uses a Vector 3, they should first practice the reserve procedures on the ground
under an appropriately rated instructor’s supervision.
A skydiver may be faced with a number of emergencies including those in the aircraft, during
climb out or exit, in freefall, during deployment, under canopy and landing. A currently rated
instructor or parachute center must provide training for any and all emergencies before jumping
a Vector 3.
