    Poll time - have you ever done the naked skydiving thing? ------------------------- "If you've never jumped out of a plane, the best way I can describe it is it feels as if you've just jumped out of a freakin' plane." David Whitley (Orlando Sentinel)
  4. My newly owned used rig has soft links. Some riggers say those are fine; others say they are a no-no. Opinions? ------------------------- "If you've never jumped out of a plane, the best way I can describe it is it feels as if you've just jumped out of a freakin' plane."

  5. It is attached to a ZP 145. Thanks for your thoughts - I appreciate it. ------------------------- "If you've never jumped out of a plane, the best way I can describe it is it feels as if you've just jumped out of a freakin' plane." David Whitley (Orlando Sentinel)
  6. I am very new to the sport and have recently bought my own rig. Although I had my senior rigger, the DZO, and several instructors inspect the rig - the one thing they didn't mention to me before buying was that this rig has a bungee pilot chute. I am used to a regular, plain old pilot chute. The rigger said that I could notice a slight delay from pitch to deployment (which I did on only one jump so far). He recommended that I go ahead and change it out with a kill line. What opinions/recommendations/suggestions do you have on this topic? Until now, I had only heard of two types of PCs, so this is very new to me. Your thoughts are appreciated. ------------------------- "If you've never jumped out of a plane, the best way I can describe it is it feels as if you've just jumped out of a freakin' plane."
