pack40 0 #1 March 12, 2003 A fellow skydiver sent me a link to a Russian site reporting a tandem jump with two "passangers". Check out. ARTICLE http://www.skydiver.com.ua/english/news/trio/index.htm VIDEO http://www.vesti.ru/video.html?vid=19434 The video is in Russian. PS: If anybody would tell me how to download/capture that asf video I would be gratefull. I have tried with Streambox VCR capture :-( no luck.

flyingferret 0 #2 March 12, 2003 Pretty intense, although I bet that is really really pushing the limits for the gear.-- All the flaming and trolls of wreck dot with a pretty GUI. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mccordia 74 #4 March 12, 2003 I remember this being done in holland a long time ago. It was a male TM with a dutch woman (his wife if I remember correctly, also a skydiver) and her/their 10 or 12 year old son attached to the mom. They claimed it was the first triple tandem back then, think it was somewhere around 1989 or so..JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmytavino 16 #7 March 13, 2003 hahaha " Veeeerrryyyy Interesting""" ONLY ... I am not too sure about the "extension carrabeener (sp.) " which is seen on the TM's Upper Right Connection,,,,,.. that looks just like the thing which could fail,,, in cold temps....or under a heavy loading,,,, at opening....... though I may be overreacting....
