Default RE: broken 3 ring system

hello!

i was jumping an vertigo warlock- 2 pin- container with an atair troll 265. after an 1,5 sec. delay, i deploy stabil and symmetric. the wind was nearly zero. (46" pilot chute -not vented)
my friend was standing on the exit and wait for his jump. he said: "your pilot chute was oszillated very strong and turns the canopy 180° when came out from the container"
i had a very nice opening, but in the wrong direction...
i try a turn with my right backriser, but it was to late- i hit the skyscraper. the cannopy collapsed. i`m fighting,etc.-no chance
sekonds later, i was falling down quickly and some lines are arround my body.
45m above the ground, two a-lines stop my fall. they are hanging on a part of an cran.

ad 3 ring system: while i hanging i see, the right front and backriser are away from me (ca. 0,5m). the cutaway cable was into the loop.
i don`t see it exactly- broke a ring or the risers? this time i had have other problems...
by the rescue, i do an cutaway- the risers are on the cannopy
my cannopy is in germany in this time. i hope, i became him back quickly- then i can check all things exactly

greetings,
miko
