Sport parachuting is a hazardous activity that can result in injury or death. An altimeter is a mechanical device and may 
malfunction, even when properly designed, built, assembled, maintained and used. Do not rely upon an altimeter for your 
safety. Your altimeter must only be considered as an aid when checking your altitude. 

 
“The needle can stick during both ascent and descent – a visual cross reference with the ground should be used in 
combination with the altimeter”:

 USPA Skydivers Information Manual 8-5.03.C.2.
