Ludovico was the first of a group of jumpers ready to jump from Castello delle Nevere (Low exit). Weather condition was great, sunny, no wind, the cliff was half in the sun and half in the shade.
His exit was good, after 3 seconds he was in full flight and after another 2 seconds he started to set the left turn to go on the line. 12 seconds after the exit he disappeared from sight beyond the mountain. Based on where his body was found, we discover that he decided to go pass on the left side of one tower that is on the left flight line.
This tower makes a gate to enter in a steep trench on the right side. To enter in this line it's necessary to be high enough to set a proper right turn. We suppose that he arrived too low at the gate entrance to make the right turn. The impact with the rocks just after the gate was inevitable.
This line is a technical line that needs a good flight plan, probably he set the left turn too late and this decision got him too low at the gate entrance. He did two jumps from this spot last year with his Onesie power, flying the left line, outside the tower. He was a good Onesie pilot.
This jump was the first jump for him from this spot with a wingsuit. We don't know if it could be relevant for the dynamic of this fatality, but in his previous jump he had complained about problems with the helmet visor fogging up. We can exclude no hypotheses till when the video from his helmet will be analyzed.
