GroundZero 0 #1 July 30, 2002 I just finished packing my rigs for Rantoul. Got the latest and greatest, jumpsuits of all sorts, but... My my coolest rig is a zero jump...i.e. brand new, North American Mini System container with the mark one Para-Commander I made my first jump on. This container was found at Precision (Thanks George for letting me borrow it! I promiss I won't get it dirty! Every landing a stand-up and I'll shower the sweat off my body before I don the pristine rig!) Just repacked my 24' tri-vent reserve... ready to go! Who is planning on bringing rounds for jumping? Look for me at the Precision tent. Le'ts put together a big way... like ten way "star"! Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FallRate 0 #3 July 30, 2002 Intersting thing about rounds: Can turn a seasoned skydiver into an instant whuffo... "Whuffo you want to spend an hour packing your main?" "Whuffo you wanna open hard enough to decrease your stature by half an inch?" "Whuffo you want to play roulette with the chance of landing anywhere near the DZ?" So it goes.

SkymonkeyONE 4 #4 July 30, 2002 We will have at least one PC in our camp. Both my wife and Scott Sheck jumped in a five way last year. Sheck was dicking around and almost landed on a balloon! I was laughing my ass off. My first rig was a R/W/B mini system with a R/W/B Papillon. I am talkin HIGH PERFORMANCE here! We had the POPs nationals here at Raeford two weekends ago. On the dummy load for the "hit and rock", Scott Sheck jumped an MC-3 long-line PC and scored a 7.8 seconds I think. Nice. Unfortunately, he is only 32 years old and it didn't count.
