Jumper exited and turned right to go over plateau La Marchande. Two jumpers saw him exit and were immediately concerned seeing him flying very slow. He was found dead on plateau by first responders. Canopy was out but it's still unclear if jumper pulled or it came out on impact.
The plateau requires a glide over 3 and has a long no-pull section. Morning jumps are tricky because of the high altitude and thermals. Jacques was from Paris and was not experienced in the mountains. He had roughly 20 jumps on his Corvid, more information will follow if the go pros are found over the coming days.
Update 11th Nov 2020
Footage has been seen. Jumper was low and emergency pulled. Canopy opened downwind and he came crashing on rocky terrain a couple of seconds later. Helmet was heavily damaged and he had no chance of survival
