Lineover |
|
A malfunction where some of the suspension lines are accidentally drawn over the canopy during deployment. Caused by a bad pack job or a severely unstable body position during deployment. Since the canopy cannot be fully expanded on that side it will most probably start to rotate very quickly and also descend at a hazardous speed. Calls for immediate reserve pull. |
