    So they jump out like that now with the arms wide open. When we jumped we had to place our had on the reserve. Seems like he could have gotten his arm tangled and ? up.

    you sir are correct

    you are supposed to jump out vigorously and then immediately lock in your elbows to your sides, feet and knees together with one hand on the reserve

    then you count and then check your canopy................
