What is the consequence of performing advanced canopy maneuvers in a common landing area with other jumpers?

  1. It is encouraged

  2. It is considered a violation of USPA Group Member Pledge

  3. It is permissible with caution

  4. It is safe if done at high altitude

The correct answer is: It is considered a violation of USPA Group Member Pledge

Performing advanced canopy maneuvers in a common landing area with other jumpers is considered a violation of the USPA Group Member Pledge due to the increased risk it poses to the safety of all jumpers present. The Pledge emphasizes maintaining a high standard of safety and mutual respect in shared environments. Advanced maneuvers can lead to unpredictable flight paths and potential collisions, making it essential for jumpers to adhere to established safety protocols that prioritize the well-being of everyone in the landing zone. Thus, engaging in such maneuvers without sufficient clearance or in the presence of other jumpers undermines the principles of safe skydiving practice and is discouraged by the USPA.
