    Well put indeed. VERY valid point as well. Very very valid! -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --

    Maybe your DZ should adjust jumpruns for long climbouts if necessary. Gee, there's a simple solution to all problems. -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --

    People that yell from the front of the plane when THEY AREN'T LOOKING OUT OF THE DOOR TO SPOT piss the hell out of me. There is absolutely NO PLACE in the sport for idiots like that REGARDLESS of the number of jumps they have. They do not know the specifics of what the spotter is looking at NOR the specifics of the jump itself. STFU front seat drivers. -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --

    "I keep reading about people bouncing without the cypress firing." I doubt there are that many incidents out there where the Cypress didn't fire around where it should have when it should have.

    There is redundancy all over the web. Look up anything in Google and see how many websites you come up with. My half cent. -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --

    Forget idiots like that - jump when you are ready. I've never had anyone shouting explitives at me, but I've had three or four experiences with shouting. There is no need for it EVER from idiots inside the plane. For instance, there could be a problem that someone propped in the door is attempting to fix. -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --

    I thought of putting it on my left side when I had a bad shoulder. I've only seen one other rig that had it on the left side. I can't see any real glaring issues with moving it riggin-wise, but alas, I am not a rigger... Peace -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --

    "my husband has a low opinion of skydivers" There are all sorts of skydivers, doctor skydivers that save lives, lawyer skydivers that save asses, etc... etc...

    Ahhhhh - thanks very much Ron, I always thought it was just a quick reserve pull. I stand corrected and educated. Thanks much! -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --
  14. freakydiver
    Right but how much time to do a really quick one. I would never do a simultaneous pull, but is say half a second enough to clear a main? A quarter of a second? -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --

    With the resurgance of the RSL debate, I have a canopy transfer question. On a typical two handle sport rig, what is the quickest way to get rid of the main and dump the reserve, I guess what I mean is, pulling both handles at the same time could result in the quickest transfer, but shouldn't there be a brief pause to let the main clear and then pull reserve, like half a second? Any suggestions? Anyone ever done both handles at the same time, is that dangerous (I would think so)... Thanks! -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --

    "I have never been married (for much of these reasons)" No offense, but I think my wife is simply amazing and although she doesn't jump, our lives are still great. Marriage is actually a very good thing when you meet the right person, its like combnining two minds that think alike and having like the power of ten when all is said and done. Although you are right jt, quitting will not cure all problems fo sho... -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --

    In case by cnahce your main gets tangled on your helmet when chopping. You would clear your helmet than pull reserve, time permitting of course. -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --

    IMHO a significant other should support theirs 100percent no matter what they want to pursue in their lives. What is the point of being married otherwise? -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --

    Nah - got my new mtn bike on its way and got some good sit jumps in last friday which really isn't today. Shutting up now. -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." --
