i use a leash or whatever you call the sun glasses keepers and then put a squeeze stopper deal on the line, and cinch it down around the back of my mellon. Works friggin awesome! my pics & stuff!

TM's, have you ever had, or almost had you hand pinched between the risers? It's gotten me once, and my poor buddy here got it BAD. Something to think about.....if your cutaway hand is stuck in the risers, is the student gonna cutaway for you?... check this out my pics & stuff!

Something I learned about release pins while paragliding.

QuoteThat is too big a workload for amateurs to maintain in the evenings.Quote and not having a life outside the DZ helps. my pics & stuff!

have a tony jacket, Cwing, and love it. Very easy to put on and take off. bitchen for the summer. Wish I had started wearing it several years ago. Bought it used, and it has the sit wings in the back of the arms. They suck, but I just sewed them shut. no cons to think of. my pics & stuff!

http://us.f1f.yahoofs.com/bc/16025028/bc/My+Documents/backwards---1.wmv?bfIBZdBBQuDHEC4S problem there was that someone else did the editing. Still pretty funny. Nice opening too, take a look see. my pics & stuff!

nope, didn't want a thing to do with it. Bummer was that it was on a tandem video, and I couldn't make up some BS excuse why I cut it away. my pics & stuff!

DOH!!!!!!!! me....of all people. What a friggin surprise. That's what happens when you remove it and put it back without line checking. It stayed in the bag the whole time. my pics & stuff!

It was my 4th, but by far my worst. In 4way, I NJ'd twice, and was not happy about that. But in all, I was very happy to participate. Perris is an awesome host, and I plan on being back next year too. my pics & stuff! -
replace my PC1 that had well over 1500 jumps on it. It finally started doing odd things. But it wasn't jumped in humid and dirty environments either. The helmet (aviator) is still kicking. Helmet is a side mount also, without a dbox. my pics & stuff!

i was thinking night shot myself. my pics & stuff!

that's pretty funny, I never thought of it as luetenant(?). my pics & stuff!

1. Terminal no drogue reserve deployment on a strong tandem...the opening put me to sleep for a few seconds 2. sidespin with handycam. Made for a very good video. my pics & stuff!

The old PC was starting to do it, so I replaced it, had probably 600 jumps on it. This one started doing it right off the bat, but I've put close to 100 jumps on it, so I don't think it's returnable. I've heard the idea of the knot in the kill line working, but still not buying it. It collapses just fine. As for symetry, I'm thinking that's the issue. By the way, the old one was a hacky handle, and the new one is a monkey fist. my pics & stuff!

Ok, I haven't gotten a legitimate answer to this one. It's a new pilot chute, and about half the time, I land and the bridle is soooo friggin twisted, it takes a few minutes to untwist, and it's really pissin me off (and it always happens when I'm in a rush). Anyone have a decent reason as to why??? And maybe how to fix it???? my pics & stuff!
-
I have the same setup and have gotten that error a few times too. Don't know why, but only a few times. I would like to know too. my pics & stuff!

a lot of hard work, very little money, and easily 7 days a week. The summer obviously is the best time, a good month would be around 150-200 jumps. But that will only last a few months...if that. Depends on the DZ, and how much staff is on hand. I do tandem vids also, and a little photography and riggin on the side. You will have to learn to live CHEAP! Top ramen baby... There are the exceptions out there, but this is what I've learned. my pics & stuff!

I didn't get my tandem rating till roughly 1,000 jumps. And didn't feel confident until I had just over 1,000 tandems. Doing handycam really taught me a lot, and now after doing those, I feel much more comfortable. my pics & stuff!
