Description

Newbie Artist Training Grounds day 3: a pony training; a pony preparing. Part of my recurring NATG concept where Trixie tries to match Twilight’s wings by taking up skydiving.
 
Like it or not, learning to skydive involves learning to pack your own parachute.

The courage to jump...

Indeed, though it’s not quite that expensive, depending on what rigger you talk to. Even if you don’t use your reserve, it needs to be inspected and repacked after 3 months. Riggers have little seals or stickers with their certificate number they put over the closing pin of a reserve they pack - it’s proof that they did the job and the reserve has not been used since then.
 
Your main parachute a recreational vehicle, your toy, and it’s on you to take care of it. Your reserve parachute is a life-saving device.

Interesting fact. Only a certified rigger is allowed to pack the backup chute to make sure it is done right. It costs about 80 dollars I believe.
