    How long should the canopy take to stall? My lines are setup with about 2 inches of slack, and at full arm extension, the canopy doesn't immediatly stall, it takes a little while (I don't know how long) This is a "slow"stall, going from full flight to full brakes slowly. I can't remeber about a fast stall, I haven't done one in a little while... -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    I created a stepthrough on one jump when I dumped on my back and the PC went through my legs. I landed that one. AKAIK, they aren't a big deal, as long as everything is clear of everything else (and mine was) -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    In my case, it was because the DZ provided the rubber bands, and they had boxes and boxes of big ones. -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    So how does PD do it with the Vengance? I don't think they have any colour restrictions... Note: I'm not attacking you, this is a genuine question... -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    It depends on the size of the rubber bands. Large rubber bands, you need to double wrap, else they're too big (except for the locking stows) Small rubber bands only need only wrap. DON"T double stow tube stows (or their equivelent) There are ways of attaching them the the dbag that shortens them, and thus tightening them around your lines. Note: This is not an expert opinion, just my observation over my couple of years jumping. -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    no worries. It would be useful as a guide to what people think is important, the details I could probably find out by asking or researching... -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    How do manufacturer requirements for TMs apply outside of the US? -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    Just a question on colour choice. This is purely hypothetical, as I won't be buying a canopy for another couple of years.... Why don't you allow dark colours as ribs? (black, blackberry...) Cheers -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    Another reason why I like Australia's six month repack cycle. Battery changes always coincide with a repack. -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    Is it possible that the rubber stuff around the pins could hold onto the chinstrap? Is there any chance that a riser strike could pull your handle off it's velcro? I'm just trying to think of _anything_ that could go wrong... How easy is to check the pin? . This looks good to me, but I have never seen a cutaway system IRL, so my opinion is probably not worth the bits it took to send... -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    What about: Badger, Iowa, Badger, Kansas, Badger, Kentucky, Badger, Minnesota, Badger, Nebraska, Badger, South Dakota, Badger, Texas, or Badger, Washington? -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    Aren't you limited to 65x75 pixel images? Here are a couple of images. The first one is the entire image shrunk down. The second is just concentrating on your face... -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    Didn't Kansas legislate that pi = 3 ?? I seem to recall some American state doing that... -- Arching is overrated - Marlies

    Maybe so there is less stitching on the MLW, so less chance of weakening it? Just guessing here.... -- Arching is overrated - Marlies
