frost 1 #26 April 3, 2006 Quote I think it would be a great thing if everyone, from the student moving to his first 1:1, or the 3 year veteran moving to a cross-braced, took the time off from their normal jumping routine to get to know their new gear better. I actually considered coming up with a "canopy transition syllabus", but then I realized that I am lazy...and I can't spell sillybus You'd be wasting your time for two reasons: a. It's kinda been done (brian germain chart) b. Nobody would follow itSoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying. Because nobody knows your skills better than you.

diablopilot 2 #27 April 4, 2006 QuoteHi Phree, I just bought a used, (new to me) canopy with a brand new line set. The guy I bought it off told me that PD recomends doing a hop & pop or two prior to taking it to terminal. I doesn't really matter to me cause I'm going to do many hop & pops up way high to get used to the canopy before I really start flying it. Dayle They don't have a sugestion either way, this is a rumor that has been creeping up.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
