wtf did i do??

Hmm... I guess so - My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

It's an OLD vector with a smallish parachute. It's just going to look that way. and as long as the Loop is tight and your not freeflying in that container it's basically ok. It's not the proper fit and is not a suitable set up to freefly. But as far as deployment issues, I see none. What I would worry about is pin tension. Be aware that the main flap will mostly likely be open on a regular basis. That's the part I'd worry about most. - - My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

(sorry heatherb..it seems to have turned in to a different discussion) Challenging yes. But what's jumping in the dark got to do with it? Heck, how much is your parachute worth? Have a mal and chances are you'll never see it again. That reason alone should denote any requirement to night jump. A night jump is a special event. People plan for it take as many precautions as they can think of (or should any way). It's not an accident to jump an hour or later after sunset. It's Something fun/scary/challenging. Jumping when it's dark has nothing to do with skills needed to advance in skydiving. Do a couple night jumps and get your d-license. If you choose to never do it again, what have you learned, and what was so useful about it? This information will never be needed. It's not like it's water training. Jump where there's water and there is a chance you're going to need that training. It gets dark every day. operations shut down by then. so....back to the top where it's a special event that has no bearing on skills required to Advance in skydiving. ---theses damned circular discussions--- To keep this inline with the topic, I prefer lighted landing areas. Paso had a great lighted area when it was in operation. (ask Skybytch) I agree with the Eloy comment. Just remember... don't avoid your own shadow on a night jump. - - My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Holy shit dude... I'm all for night jumps they're a blast. But honestly... what purpose do night jumps have in fulfulling any safety measures in Skydiving? ( I'm not going to search on the subject, I know it's out there.) For the record, I do night jumps way more often than most. The ground is there and you can see it. But damn what a silly requirement for D-license. You have standards for the beach jump. What does jumping at night have to do with it? That requirement is total bullshit when it comes to the ability to handle landing on the beach. The D license requirements are not that stringent. Perhaps your requirements to jump on the beach are stringent. Are you telling us that any one with a D licence is allowed to do the beach jump?.... During the day...when the jumps occur? Sure this sounds hostile but it's not... I laughed when I read your post. Couldn't resist. Cheers... Flame at will - - My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

I'm offended. That was very degrading to women. Hmph! - - (not serious just in case you thought I was) My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Perhaps a tiny notification regarding the size of the Video is in order. ---------------23.2 MB--------------- Downloading now Thanks - - My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Just a silly observation. There are ways to inflate the end cells of a canopy. Every one agrees on that. -however- Am I the only one with the following opinion? This particular not so lightly loaded 7 cell parachute in question, seems as if replacing it would be a good idea. Cheers - My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry...

Lukas Knutson Gear Inspection I didn't know him but he was a very well known and talented Jumper both BASE and Skydiving. Look all around the Blinc site while you're there. - - - My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

In another post you said there was no snow, just ice on the trees. But if you were to throw the cat, they are properly shaped for a curve. - My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto
