Those two releases are used a lot in the "tandem passenger accuracy" contests. Hopefully, they are under 40 ft when they pass over the peas.

Quick release for the passenger..............Great idea!

Casie, you know they said "ditto," and not "diddle," right?

Some one please record and post the commercial for us non_USers


And Jeff you can very quickly release the Tandem passenger, just undo the side stabilisers under canopy ,then you only have to 2 quick release snaps at the shoulders. the TM here do it all the time.
As soon as the passenger touches ground and is steady (well mostly) there disconected.

Hmm. Not being a TM, I was simply viewing the commercial about a day after someone at our DZ had been showing a student the fact that he would NOT be able to release the student while under canopy because the student's weight would keep him in the clips. That's what I was basing my criticism of the commercial on. The student was hanging in the harness along with the TM, and the TM just cut him away... I just think it's not good PR for people who may be a bit nervous about just that subject: accidentally falling from the nice instructor man who has the parachute.

You obviously did not have to field the calls to any small or large DZ after the release of Point Break or the Coke commercial etc.......Talk about funny.....

I don't know the Coke commercial, but after Point Break, did you get people thinking they'd be able to talk back and forth during RW?

Man who cares....Get outside and enjoy life...

C'mon, don't take my criticism to mean that I don't do just that. I happened to be on here while I was watching t.v. and saw the commercial for the first and so far only time.

I was out jumping just this afternoon, actually. It was a REALLY good day for me. Came home and made a delicious meat loaf, too!

I hope it really chaffes your ass to know that my wife and I thought the commercial was so funny, we ran out last week and signed up, plus we bought two phones.

Yay number portability!
