  1. After one jump, I had -40 meter on my digital alti. Is that a good news??? I had no other problem, because I have realized before.
  2. Are you depressed? Risking your life for a stuffed dog??? You should ground yourself as long as you work this out.
  3. I have both. I used both. I still recommend an analog for you.
  4. I had one jump, not in Finland, where exit was about 225-250m and we used RS4/A round canopies. We were on the ground pretty fast.
  5. I'm not worried at all. I had some back flying and back flying exit too, but nothing even close to flat spin yet.
  6. I had about 40 flights and no flat spin so far. Is that depending on the type of the suit too?
  7. Ok. Get polaroid sunglasses and try to read it.
  8. What was keeping him/her back from implementing the idea?
  9. What is the base of the spinning problem? Is that the lack of forward speed?
  10. Is your computer working better from your dirty words?
  11. Depends. I have seen someone kicked 4 cm on a sub 100 sqft Velocity.
  12. How about having it inside the swoop pants? And flush it with a tongue switch? It can even keep your legs cool or warm.
  13. I would not expect 50 years lifetime. I would expect minimum of 12 years and the device would indicate need for new battery or service.
  14. Aye, Sir ! Robnyk Sapphire Black, metric
  15. Does it matter? Look around your DZ or club and get one from the most popular brand.
  16. I have bought my analog altimeter 7 years ago. No problems at all. It is a really simple piece of equipment. Simple: do not smash it.
  17. This feels quite similar to back-tracking for me. How about having a shadow or wing-man over you? He or she would navigate for you and you follow his/her lead? Is it too simple?
  18. You should be able reach maximum speed even from 270 degrees. It is not only the rotation but also the time you use for that. If I understood right The Parachute and its Pilot by Brian Germain.
