storm1977 0 #1 July 2, 2003 While jumping the other day, I saw a student with a disposable camers duct taped to his cheststrap. I could only think this was a bad idea. The student was not "on his own" It was for a tandem jump. I was just wondering if this was done often? I know duct tape is strong, but what if it works loose and smacks him or the istructor in the face. ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChileRelleno 0 #2 July 2, 2003 I'm sure the tandemmaster either gave permission and or made a decision on whether or not his passenger could have/use it. "SWEET" ChileRelleno-Rodriguez Bro#414 Hellfish#511,MuffBro#3532,AnvilBro#9, D24868 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casie 0 #3 July 2, 2003 Yeah, I'd agree it doesn't sound safe at all. Haven't really heard of any of that going on at my home DZ.~Porn Kitty WARNING: Goldschlager causes extreme emotional outbursts! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freakous 0 #5 July 2, 2003 I can only imagine that the Tandem master was the one doing the duct taping. Therefore knowing the concerns involved. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
storm1977 0 #6 July 2, 2003 I agree they would be cool pictures, but was the "going low" directly related to the distraction of the Camera?
