What should I check before every jump?

Run a pre-jump gear check on yourself and have a buddy check too: handles in place (main, cutaway, reserve), AAD on, reserve in date, pin seated, and altimeters reading correctly. A second set of eyes catches what you miss.

Checklist

Licensed Sport Jumper Gear Check

Once you are off student status and jumping your own rig, the pre-jump self-check is on you. Confirm your rig is airworthy, your safety gear is in date, and you are dressed for the temperatures aloft before you ever board the plane.
