  3. I find that if I wear gloves in the warm weather,that when the time comes that you do need gloves,you are already acclimated to the feel of wearing them. Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

  13. So you're a skydiver, you're SUPPOSED to have gas! Was it enough gas to power you off the landing area? Or was it enough to knock someone else off? Now THAT's gas! Gas award of the boogie has to go to Lee.He had me really close to throwing up Saturday morning.

  14. I listened to part of that.Got the wide chest strap and risers.I also did the "check with the manufacture" concerning dbag placement.Here was the correspondence. -----Original Message----- From: Curt Meyer [mailto:cmeyer@geisrealty.com] Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2004 11:40 AM To: rigging@sunpath.com Subject: Main bag placement in container Would it be ok to place the dbag in facing straight down (against the back pad)instead of being oriented to the bottom of the container?Its a brand new (OCT 03)J-2 and the main is a Cobalt 150.It really takes some work to get to the recommended orientation and I worry some of the lines may get tangled. Curt Hi Curt Try Pulling up on the closing loop retainer with your pull up cord as you are rotating the bag in that should help. We do prefer that you try to get the correct orientation of the bag, as opposed to droping it straight in with lines on the back pad.

  15. What happened to the dvds of the big ways? Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.
  16. If 15 inches is the manual recommended length,but you like the idea of the shorter length,wouldn't packing grommet to pin facilitate keeping the lines at the shortest length? I never did like the idea of rotating the bag with excess line underneath.

  17. Wonderful time at funnel camp.Personally I like the two strikes rule at boogie bigways.Met a lot of nice people,had a blast with some good friends,on the calendar for next year.

  19. The only time you have depth perception issues are when everything in your field of view is the same with no contrast.Snow.water,sand even grass.The environment in Belize was such that it is very unlikely to have depth perception issues.
