When you select “Next” you will see:
•
Avg: Average velocity for the freefall portion of your skydive, where freefall =
exit altitude until you are under a fully open canopy
•
12K: Average velocity between 12,500’ and 11,500’
•
9K: Average velocity between 9,500’ and 8,500’
•
6K: Average velocity between 6,500’ and 5,500’
•
3K: Average velocity between 3,500’ and 2,500’
The velocities are an average of your velocity within 1000 feet of the reported
altitude. This is how fast you were going at that altitude, it is not an average over a
large part of your skydive.
Note that the 4 velocity averages do not incorporate data for the entire skydive.
Average velocity for the entire skydive does not equal the average of the 4
averages.
When you select “Next” you will go back to the screen shown above. If you then
select “View Next” the counter will go forward one jump; “View Previous” goes back
one jump.
WARNING
PARACHUTING IS A HAZARDOUS ACTIVITY THAT CAN RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH.
An altimeter is a device subject to 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.
A visual cross reference with the ground should be used in combination with any altimeter.
