The jump is a jump requiring a PCA or a static line. We were 3 jumpers that day, the 1st jumped in a static line, then Reb prepared, he installed the static line system correctly, but we have two possible errors as to the cause of the crash.

The first hypothesis is that in the rush before the jump, he would not have made a final check on his way to the strap, he would therefore have jumped with the extraction strap passing in front of his right arm, which, at the time of the jump,
created a premature break in the break cord, and a change in that fall position that caused him to end up facing a cliff. Reb quickly released his arm strap and the puller pulled the parachute, about in the middle of the wall, Reb was supported by the parachute, but his parachute had trouble opening properly from this position face of the cliff, and the low height of the jump and especially the premature rupture of the broken cord.

The second hypothesis and that there would have been no error in the routing of the straps, but that Reb would have thrown the puller over his arm (hand thrown manner) instead of under it, also blocking the halyard around his arm.

Please, beware of any type of jump, base jumping is a very dangerous activity and, even if it is pleasant, you should never exceed your own limits.

You will never be forgotten my friend!
