Advanced is a funny way to put it

Give it a little time. A lot of people had a long ass weekend and might need some rest My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

It's fine. Those strands are from normal wear. Keep an eye on it for 1000 jumps. If you're sending it back to be resized, that's fine, but it's not even close to needing repair. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

The handle is installed correctly. Look where the reserve cable housing is. If it was backward, the handle won't fit in the pocket because the reserve cable would be to the outside (the side you can see) The shape of that handle is still tapered from inside to out. It's a fairly sharp angle but it's correct for that handle. The cutaway cable housing should be pushed down farther into the mudflap. If it tends to do that all the time, care to push it down each time a student wears it should be taken. On that particular rig, or at least later models of that rig, there should be an elastic keeper under the mudflap to route the housing through. It prevents the housing from doing exactly what you see there. Edit: The handle is was modeled after the larger handle that was so popular for many years. The lower profile and smaller handles were only made popular in the 2000's. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

The G2 works well with glasses. A friend of mine looked long and hard for a helmet that worked with glasses. I wear a G2 now also. I don't need my glasses to skydive but now that I can, I wear them. Depending on weather, they also fog, both the glasses, and the full face lens. That's the main drawback of using a G2. Anti Fog products do work, but not always and you must be diligent about applying it. Look into the G3 that's coming out soon. They are supposed to be better at fog prevention.

I wasn't expecting a serious concerned reply to the original post I have have a BASE jump or 2 and it's definitely a game of sorts. The trailer was pretty funny, especially since he's wearing skydiving gear. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Search is a function. I get 30 for main side. Sometimes it's a easy, sometimes, not so much. It's tough to make a living as an AFF instructor however it will supplement your income enough to pay for jumps. Mind you, after 10s of thousands of dollars, you deserve as much as you can get. It's also a lot of fun. I thoroughly enjoy doing AFF. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Maybe, when it comes to skydiving, a little less engineering should go into it. I'm saying that with complete sincerity. Just flare. It's a parachute. Let it fly, when you get to around 8 feet or so, just flare it smooth and completely. If it's windy, flare less, but just flare it. If you keep trying to analyze every movement, you'll drive yourself nuts. Pull high, fly it around, test flare and feel it. Start feeling it rather than trying to use some formula. Good luck My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

From jump number 1, besides maintaining heading, we are taught arms up to let the canopy fly, then flare around 8 feet (generalized). That still stands true. When you flare, you should basically pendulum under the canopy first stopping the downward speed then hopefully finish by stopping horizontal speed. If you put the brakes on up high, you will remain behind the canopy and never be able to pendulum under it when you finish flaring. If you're struggling to be able to stall, it's either by fear, or the brakelines are long. I expect a certain amount of fear but are you able to actually stall it by holding the brakes down or does it never actually stall? Another thing... Triathlons kinda suck The flare characteristics are not what I would call powerful. A person can learn how to fly them just fine but it's a canopy I never suggest unless it's suuuuper cheap.

I would not do it unless, my manufacturer recommends it. Go ahead, you can be a test jumper.... Why to fix something is not broken? Why re-write a manual if it's close enough, is the only reason it would not be considered recommended.

The bobbin carriage is likely out of adjustment. If you want a lesson in timing your machine, here's the chance. Mind you, You're about to get a lesson in frustration if this is your first time timing any machine. Turn the carriage every so slightly toward the side that skips. Good luck maintaining the same spacing between the needle and the carriage Basically as the needle passes the pointy end of the carriage, it should almost touch or barely touch. That spacing should remain the same if it's sewing well already. Turn that assembly a very tiny bit toward the skip. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

You should be able to sit with ease or curl up in a ball completely without it mashing your nuts. It doesn't fit. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

The Cop folks I have talked with prefer their BMWs. I've also watched a few CHP completely breaking road laws having fun on them. They may not be exempt ... but they are. Point is, they like them. I know many a civilian rider that have test ridden a BMW and sold the Harley. I've ridden both. and there's simply no way I'd pick up a Harley. For general purpose and actual riding. Gimme da Beemer. If you're a Harley stunter, sure. Why not. There are several in this area. They are fantastic riders and I appreciate their opinions and abilities however, it's no standard Harley Cruiser they ride on. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry...

He did it for Fun??? It's a move that can be duplicated consistantly on other canopies including some crossbraced canopies. It did do what he told it to, even though he didn't exactly mean all of it

Feed back eh? Doing helicopters on a Velo is rather difficult. Borrow a VX and you'll have much better luck. I jump a Velo. I talked to TJ last night about this. He's very good at doing helicopters and he said he's never been able to sort it out consistantly on a Velo. There's more to it but we didn't have time to discuss the reasons.

Local, it's a weather thing. When it rains the servers go down. It's cool. And nah I went into google and tried to get rid of the filter but....nah no go. Such is life. Got to do what you got to do. But it's allso good to vent a little. IT guys are like Cops. You know you need them but you can't help but get pissed at them from time to time. That's the URL filter disallowing a change to the safe search. It's set that way from the factory. The email servers aren't going down either. For whatever reason, the connection to them is. That does not mean the servers are down, they’re just not reachable. T o you they are down, the rest of the people using that email service, it’s working fine. I'm not like a cop but some things I'm not allowed to bypass. I can't fix a problem when it's not mine either. If the connection goes down due to weather, it's generally up to the ISP to sort it out. Your relationship with the IT folks may suck or they really do think they’re hot shit. You may also consider that looking up crazy bitches so you can post it on a website is wasting valuable company time, and searching for naked skinny girls is also wasting company time. That’s the reason the URL filter is left as is.

My guess is the strict safe search box is checked on the URL filter. They tend to be set that way from the factory. Most companies don't uncheck it. I know nothing about your email issue but I can assure you that not much thought was put into blocking crazy bitches Ask them to remove the strict safe search and if you succeed in convincing them to take 14 seconds of their time to uncheck it, you can search bitches all you want. I don't block anything. It's not my job. I put up the filter as requested. When legitmate stuff gets blocked, I set the URL filter to allow it. Are you the only one having email issues or is it global? My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

The upper 4 point is a very solid Stitch pattern. When the canopy is opening, the harness is spreading out and the the 4 point (under the mudflaps) is likely hitting you in the arms. Could be wrong but the Likely culprit, small harness. Unable to tighten chest strap enough. If you can tighten the chest strap enough to keep the harness inline, it probably won't hit your arms anymore. Also, your arm position can make it worse. Good luck :) My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

I am Jealous. I may have to come check that out.

You sure told us!! Tell me the physics are actually how it's described on the website and especially that funky leg down picture. Call it anything you want to. An eagle and an over under is the same move yes? When we (the general we) started naming freefly moves, people that named the same moves had to switch to the popular name. I can back track right up to another jumper and take a dock. It's still tracking but you're still welcome to call it autmonauti. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry...

That is some seriously tight angle flying, changing the leader like that and remaining so tight is simply amazing... Thanks for sharing. To the atmo nay sayers, if you don't like the tv show, change the channel. freedom of choice and all that... go do a tracking jump or something... I was kidding. I am not disagreeing with Simon .The flying in that videos is great but I see plenty of tracking. There are plenty of tracking positions including all of them in the 2 attachments.. Call it anything you want to because TFS just isn't good enough. (Tracking formation skydiving) My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto
