bag is not resting flat on the back
bag was not sitting high enough on the back
Once all of those are dealt with, the bag is pretty stable. On another note...if you are going airborne constantly, maybe a messenger backpack is more up your alley. The problem is if any of those conditions are not met, then when you go airborne, your back changes shape briefly, causing enough loss of friction, to allow the bag to go whereever it wants.
