    I think I had one of those years ago, don't remember why (maybe when I had kidney stones???) It was about the size of a baby food jar - WTF???? And speaking of containers of human waste - is there ANY way to look cool while handing a bottle of my pee to a really hot nurse? I really tried, but all I could come up with was "uh, is this enough?" Just a reminder, poo and kidney stones don't come from the same place. My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    A method I use that works well. Place the rig, less canopies of course, in kit bag of some type. I use a military B-4. Go to a laundromat. Use the big commercial machine, the one for rugs. Use woolite and throw it in. When it is finished remove for the bag and hang, out of the sun, for 48 to 72 hours. I have done several rigs and they come out great.

    Unless there is a problem that results in the FAA stepping in its a moot point. If they become involved the rigger in question better damn well know the definition of "direct". My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    The FAA says a main must be packed by the person who jumps it unless it is packed by a rigger. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Not at all. The ribs on a frap hat can focus an impact on one of the plates of the skull, thus increasing the likelihood and severity of a skull fracture. The utility of a frap hat is for carrying gloves, altimeter and whatnot, as well as keeping a dirt-alert against the ear and reducing injury from sharp metal in the airplane. For protection against impact a frap hat is junk, and may well be worse than nothing at all. I wear frap hats, and try not to hit my head. Blue skies, Winsor You can't really believe that crap. Any protection is better then none. The ribs in a frap hat are 8/9 inches long and any impact would be distribute the impact over the length of the rib. When you work cutting fire wood, do you wear gloves? That thin piece of leather gives you some protection. Come on people get serious. My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Try doing a relaxed delta first. Body flat, legs a little wider then you shoulders and your arms angled out from you body. As you get comfortable with the delta start trimming it up. First, arms and legs coming in then rolling and cupping the shoulders and last put your butt in the air your chin on your chest and rock. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Have you ever patched a hole, 12" for the tail in the top skin running into a seam. A few minutes is closer to enough time to go crazy. Just my 2c, I would never use tape, tape is for closing boxes. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    You might just scare the wrong one and he'll pull your fucking head off and shit down the hole. That would problably ruin you swoop. My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    The flare point will always be the same distance from the canopy. The change will be where you hands are in relation to your body. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Bad advise, it is possible to relax in the plane for a student or a team jumper competing at the world meet. Focus on what your job will be on the jump. Breath in through you nose, slow and deep, exhale through your mouth, slow and completely. Remember, focus. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Paul, I think the only consistent measurement is form the top down to the control line ring. This is need to make the brake setting the same from rig to rig. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    John, The startrac comes in 3 sizes, 245, 265 and 290. The 245 is the same size as a sharpchuter but the aspect ratio is less, less span more cord. Does not flare as well. The tail pocket has been around for about 20 years that I know of. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    You are right, there is no correct gear, just gear that will kill you and all gear can kill you if you let it. For the record, I am dyslexic so I always use spell check. Your warm and fuzzy maker. My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals
