    Chris, I like how you defer the responsibility to others. Nice! Look forward to seeing yall out in Colorado in late August! Grant

    "Swoopers won't know it since the Batwing is old technology and they quit selling them before most the jumpers today started jumping." Shit son.... Not every swooper is a punk fucking kid. Just take Steve Armstrong for example. He is older than freaking dirt. He's like in his 40's. I'm sure Steve and Jesus swooped together back in the day...

    "But if Larry doesn't want us at his DZ, he doesn't want us. What can we do?" We can lite a paper sack full of poop on fire, ring his door bell, and run and hide. Then when he steps on it to put itout he will have poop on his foot, and then the swoopers will all have the last laugh!!!! Muahhhh ahahahahahahahahaahaaa That is the best way to resolve conflicts and differences of opinion if you ask me!

    I have a few jumps out of a c-17 from when I was in the Air Force. They are really nice. A little fast on jump run but it doesn't make much of a difference. The c-130 is cool to jump out of also.

    nope... belly flying makes you a better belly flyer.

    Who defines reasonable precautions? If it is the dzo or local sta then it would change from dz to dz, but what is the same from dz to dz anyways? It is that way even with the faa. One fsdo may interpret the rules one way and another fsdo may interpret it the other way. If they are hell bent to make a bsr then at least yall are making it fairly nebulous so that it really isn't binding in the fact that it forces one group or another to change their landing methods.

    I will only probe deeply into your condition if I know what condidtion your condition is is. There is nothing worse than probing into some nasty condition...

    You can do eeeeeetttttttttt!!!!!!

    YOu would think that the tail would rise up a few degrees in reflex with this mod. Some airplanes do this with their flaps to get a better cruise economy (mooney, c-182, lancair to name a few). I think with our non rigid wings that this might cause a slight tail flutter. You really don't see tail flutter on the velo's, but I have seen it up here in Colorado when it get's hot on the vx's and jvx's. At the last comp I saw a vx have tail flutter pretty much through the entire swoop. It only seems to happen when it is hot up here though. It wasn't happening in the mornings but more in the afternoons. I don't recall if team x was getting it on their sail canopies but I do recal Dan Raymond getting it on his ZP jvx and Noah or sunman getting it on his VX. TJ got it bad last year. It sounded like an automatic weapon on his canopy.

    I have several copies printed and ready to be posted at the DZ.

    If I understand the mod correctly then you are adding the distance to the steering line by changing the position where it attaches to the riser up higher on the riser. When you transfer you are adding that distance to the toggle stroke (I just said stroke hu huu huuhuuuhuhuuu) thus making the transfer longer, but I am sure we are splitting hairs here.
  14. Spizzzarko
    If this modification changes the throw of the the steering lines then you have to move the togles further when transfering. This moment when you are off rears and tranfering to togles is when it becomes un-effecient. The longer the canopy is flying at this moment of un-effreciency the more un effecient it is. The works that I just typed were so profound that I'm not even sure what it was that I just typed, albeit I typed them effeciently.

    I think they call him Crazy Larry He used to fly alpha's and did pretty well.
  16. Spizzzarko
    The transition from rears to toggles if taken to deep will create a noticable "pop" in the canopy. The crw people uses distortions such as this to arrest their forward flight. Not effecient!

    If it is on the main then you can put what ever the fuck you want on it. I have home build 2:1 risers on the lightning that I jump that has a mirage bag on it and I'm putting it in an infinity. I have the infinity risers on my 90 that I put in my Jav, and the jav risers on my 96 that I sometimes put in my infinity.

    Have fun. There are some good people there but some shit bags too. I guess I'll see you up at mile hi some day. Take it easy.

    Probably, bu there are some fucked up things that go on there. Just like any other place. Beware of teh civilian mafia there and I'm not talking about the riggers in the loft.

    Have fun. Be prepared to be in for a rude awakening if you think it is just civilian skydiving.

    They should use "E" lines.

    I added 2 inches to a 103 Velo lineset at one time. I didn't really notice a huge difference. I think you would notice a little difference if you changed the risers but I think you would find more difference out of turn technique. Working with Stu and changing my technique has been very very helpfull. I Just got my 90 relined with 350 technorra and I had stock length put on it. I also have stock length on my 96 velo and 89 jvx that are both for sale.

    "Damn that Truman Sparks! " I wonder if he took a hit before doing it. I'm sure it made the "ride down more interesting" It was also an experimental so I bet he had to turn the radio on his tum tum up a little What a classic movie! Fandango Get it on net flix as soon as you can.
