Maxed-out and RotaryWing: I watched the video more carefully in full screen and see what you are saying. The bag is definitely out first. Thanks for pointing that out!
I jump a Racer and as you know Racer's pack
tight 
And I never jump without a pin check by somebody who I trust. If somebody offers me a pin check I won't refuse out of courtesy, but I'll still make sure there's one by somebody I trust in addition to that. And a good pin check includes a good bridle routing check, too.
And if I ever decide to do the jump pilot thing I'm definitely wearing a pilot rig, required or not!
