jdog 0 #1 October 23, 2003 Where can I find a Strong tandem rating course in the next couple of months. I know I can go to Zhills, but are there any West coast options? I already checked the USPA site, and there are none listed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #2 October 23, 2003 There are some folks in Texas that can do Strong Ratings, if you'd like to find out about it, I can find their names for you.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TALONSKY 0 #5 October 23, 2003 You might try their web page http://www.strongparachutes.com. I know that in Washington and Oregon Jim Straight is the director that can give certifaction course. Jim owns BodySport USA (503) 285-5492. I do not know if you need a cutaway or not but Strong can ship out a three canopy rig for doing an intentional cutaway for $25 over te cost of shipping.

riggerrob 643 #7 October 25, 2003 Last time I checked, Vinny Palmeiri (sp?) was a Strong Tandem Instructor Examiner based at the Perris Valley Skydiving School. There should also be a STE in San Diego County, and there should be another one in the San Francisco area. The STE for British Columbia is Brian Gough. You should also be able to find an examiner in Arizona. Best to ask Strong Enterprises directly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
