Every sport common expressions that are used to describe what is being or what was done. These are some of the terms I use and are a carryover from my old skydiving days.

Crabbing: Quartering the wind.

Dirt Dive: The parachute didn't open. (For Skydivers this has a different meaning)

Holding: The jumper is facing into the wind.

Hop and Pop: No freefall opened just after being dropped.

Running: The jumper is going with the wind.

Using brakes: Pulling down both control lines to slow down the forward speed of the parachute.

Juan,

Thanks... Still one question what is quartering the wind mean?

Brad,
Quartering the wind is like tacking with a sailboat. You would be flying your parachute at an angle to the direction the wind is blowing. I hope that helps. You could crab into or with the wind.
