  1. yep looking for someone to write one for me LOL went unstable (ended up on me ass) on a 5 sec delay ... kicked my legs and everything *how embarrassing* want to get belly down on my next one any quick ways to recover and any ways i can practice while i'm not at the dz? cheers in advance Wayne (the pain) ------------------------ Can You Ere Me Now?
  2. there is another thread running on this so i'll thank you all for your input on this one and let the other poster get the lime light
  3. cheers for that i must apologise for not having the clickable link , i'm used to the v bullitin boards where the url is automatically tagged heh.. i guess i've still got alot to learn about everything ------------------------ Can You Ere Me Now?
  4. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3610501738 found that while i was browsing ebay for a cheap alti to get me started.. i only have 7 sl jumps (lol) but i'm a gearfiend and this sounds like the compleate solution to audible/visual alti and logging system.. (pro dyter?) is it worth me saving to get this as opposed to a "normal" clock face type alti (which are about £100 at our dz) this works out about £160 ------------------------ Can You Ere Me Now?
  5. i understand that, i just don't want to get wrong off the cci
  6. cheers for that :) i must have have had all of the nusance factors (high slider, twists end cell closure) by now so thats no sweat.. on my next jump i'll be out at 4k i think so plenty time to try a turn
  7. flap flap hehe thats why i was asking i sometimes feel like pulling the thing off .. so a bit of velcro wrap around solves it.... i thought the slider was there for a reason ------------------------ Can You Ere Me Now?
