If you are a Stiletto owner,you should try the vengeance on one size bigger that you have for one or two jumps and then drive the same size and comnpare.It is a question of feelings and they are completely different.Just be careful,the toggle input is a bit late after a front riser dive,like a velocity.Best way to make sure,contact PD and try one.

Are USPA rating recognised in Australia and New Zealand?
parafredo replied to iam's topic in Safety and Training
tandem ratings are from the manufacturer and have nothing to do with USPA.Quote -
We had the same incident with a 4way exit on a 182.One jumper got his left bootie hooked on the step.He was stuck on his back for a few seconds and he was trying to get out of this mess.When the pilot saw this ,he took out his seatbelt from the seat and grabbed a useful knife that we always kept close from his seat.we are doing AID instruction and we were always afraid premature deployment around the door.we never knew when we will use it.That day,a qualified instructor got his life saved by the pilot and his knife...Pilot had to cut the bootie and the diver went down freely and in perfect shape.One thing the pilot said was ...A Tony suit bootie is well done because I had to cut it completly after 3 times...
