sometimes we let our impatience get the best of us.
It had stopped raining at the top so we all geared up and made our way to the exit point, we could see some light winds, and the wind forecast at the bottom showed 10kps but we decided to go for it anyway
bad choice.
while the base jump wasn't terribly unstable the parachute flight was almost uncontrollable. you can see at the end that I have very little influence over my landing and hit the path by pure luck when being pushed side to side.
while I considered the winds, I didn't consider the rotors coming off the trees, and paired with not making the main landing area it was quite a bad position to put myself in, from now on I won't be jumping in cross winds that can result in me being held to the mercy of the wind and trees. but thankfully I got the chance to walk away unhurt with a good lesson, and thats the best we can hope for in base jumping!
