pentrough (iou) and Fall Rate - Skydiving (gambling)


pentrough (iou)



pentrough noun. L18.
[from PEN noun1 + TROUGH.]
A trough or channel, usu. of planks or boards, for conveying water from a weir, dam, etc., to the place where its force is applied, as in a water-mill.

Fall Rate - Skydiving (gambling)


The rate at which you fall, another name for terminal velocity except that it refers the rate relative to Other jumpers, rather than an absolute velocity. Fall rate is adjusted by adjusting body position. Different shape and weight jumpers in exactly the same body position will fall at different rates. Fall rate must be adjusted to be the same as everyone else so that the jumper can do RW.
