Instead of rolling do a "fold" Hold your left hand over it to hold it in place and then fold/roll with your right hand. It could help to put a weight at the bottom aswell. Otherwise if you just roll you might have a tendency to just pull the topskin and totally expose your bottom. It takes some practice. But once you got it down, I don't think you will change. I will never go back tp propacking after learing to psycho pack. Hope this helps. It's easier to show then describe. Blue ones Ankie Skydivers are a bunch of insensitive jerks...

Hey, Your reserve data card is in the pocket towards your chest. Under the mudflaps. There is also a tab with the serial number and container size. Ankie Skydivers are a bunch of insensitive jerks... And that's why I don't skydive anymore!

Damn, That is soo funny I wish I could be there. Just to clarify, not every one in Sweden run around in speedos Only the ones that really shouldn't. And it's relly a crime to see a fat guy at the beach fixing his package right in front of you. I hope to see a lot of photos from this event. Ankie Skydivers are a bunch of insensitive jerks...

You can get pretty much what ever type of camera to fit your helmet. If you are doing it yourself. If you buy premade boxes, then you pretty much have to go with their standard. Ankie Skydivers are a bunch of insensitive jerks... And that's why I don't skydive anymore!

I have the Sony DCR PC 109. It's a small camera and it's really good. I got it at a great price aswell. It has a docking station that makes it reall easy to firewire to the Computer. And the battery is really flat and small not like a lot of the cameras out there. So that's my vote! http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=311433&is=REG Skydivers are a bunch of insensitive jerks... And that's why I don't skydive anymore!

*** Ah, so it has more to do with how the bridle attaches to the d-bag... Not how the lines are stowed... So such would likely require a whole new dbag/bridle/pilot chute?...*** The anti line twist D bag we have is different from the other manufacturers D bag. I don't think the other manufacturer has it. (I’m not sure though) Anyway, as you can see on the attached picture it has a triangular point attached to it which is also sewn to the P/C which allows the bag to pull out equally instead of just from the middle. The lines stows on the top is just a preference. The way this D bag is designed is similar to our free bag. I hope this picture helped, since it seemed as if people here didn't follow the link and actually saw the bag and thought we where only talking about how the lines where stowed. If you want this feature you only need a new dbag, which costs $40.00 and you can either have your rigger sew on the P/C for you or send your P/C to us and we will sew it on for you for free.

Hey, This dbag works like this: Instead of pulling from the middle of the bag where the bridle comes out, it distributes the lift from the sides of the bag instead. And therefore lessens the chance of linetwist. You have the options of putting the rubberbands either on the side or the top. Me personally prefers it on the top.

Hi, We do have a new handle now which is really low profile. On the next rig I'm getting I will go for that handle instead of the pillow. So If you would like the low profile handle, make sure to specify that in special instructions. If you don't you will get a regular handle. The low profile doesn't cost anything extra! Also like Heather said, pin striping is a really nice looks option. If you have the cash go for it. Cause is "brakes" out the colors. You can get different color risers at no cost. And you can color match the trimtape however you want. You don’t have to have the same color trim tape all over the rig. It’s just the standard. And that is what most people get. But If you want to play around with stuff like that, give me a call and I can let you know if we can do it for free or what the cost would be. 813-788-1910 Ask for Ankie Our Free Cut in laterals really is the best free option give away we have:) Obviously if we could we would give away free rigs to everyone. However I wouldn't get paid so that would suck Blue skies Ankie Skydivers are a bunch of insensitive jerks... And that's why I don't skydive anymore!

At what jump was your first cutaway?
freeflajankie replied to justaflygirl's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
My first was not really a cut away! I was a student and on jump 9 or 10 I was doing my first actual freefall delay (static line) And I got out, got unstable and lost altitude awareness, thinking I had to get stable instead of getting something out. I finally realized and pull at the same time as cypres fires... Reserve opens faster and I'm flying that for a few seconds before landing... Second one I was still a student! Jump 20ish somehing! I had finally learned to be stable and I deploy and nothing happens. So since I had my previous I was scared of the ground so I cut away and pulled my reserve. 3rd not a student anymore... I had borrowed gear and it had a collapsible P/C which I hadn't collapsed! So obviously I had to chop!!! 4th was an intentional one! From a 3 parachute rig that we where testing. It was around jump 400ish! Now that was fun!!! So i'm done with my cutaways at least I hope so! I sure learned a lot when I was a student Ankie Skydivers are a bunch of insensitive jerks...

It's not so much a strange name but still... Chocolate milk and moonshine. I was taught how to drink that at the most awesome dropzone EVERÖD in Sweden!

I am a donor! Take it all, it's not like I will be using it any more. What I don't understand is people who are not willing to donate, but then they think it's alright to accept for example a kidney. How do these people justify that? Ankie Skydivers are a bunch of insensitive jerks... And that's why I don't skydive anymore!

Well, all you have to do is try to have a labor day boogie.... This is the 4th time we are trying for it, and this weekend we were sure it was going to happen! So if it's get shitty again this weekend, we are going to tear up those labor day boogie posters and toss them where the sun don't shine Which is obviously in Florida!!!

Here is my pretty little angel Tamara. She is a brown lynx sacred cat of Burma, or simply Birman. It's thanks to her that I'm skydiving. It was her kittens that got me though Static line
