"But if it [sky diving] was safe, nobody would do it"
phoenixlpr replied to tdog's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Yeah, we all rather play russian-roulette instead . -
I have not met this problem by myself. I had no Sabre, I had no jumps with Sabre. Slider placement can be a good trick, but you don't need any special trick with a fine canopy.
-
I think he needs a proper sized slider not a new or different canopy.
-
What is the reason that some canopies with "no stretch" lines open just fine?
-
It can be a production fault too. Check it! If it was produced on Monday, you shouldn't be surprised. Or was it Wednesday ?

Landing Patterns in Variable Light Winds
phoenixlpr replied to GoalSkorar's topic in Safety and Training
They could be the best source of information. They should know the surrounding and things better. -
No. You are mistaken, thats Dolphin :).

Landing Patterns in Variable Light Winds
phoenixlpr replied to GoalSkorar's topic in Safety and Training
How about talking with your instructor? -
Just ignore him silently.

strap tightnesses ? It is not a rocket science. Get it tight for freefall and loose it under canopy.

spectre with dacron lines - softer openings?
phoenixlpr replied to wilcox's topic in Gear and Rigging
So, What do you think what the reason is why the canopy manufacturers prefer to use micro line on sport canopies nowadays? -
I'm about 100kgs with gear.
-
Hm. I can reach 150-160 km/h SAS with a really baggy jumpsuit and camera wings.

phoenixlpr replied to wilcox's topic in Gear and Rigging
I think right (in trim) lineset and right size of silder is enough for having nice openings. -
Head up! I had 2 total mal in raw. So? I went back. I was a bit nervous in the next jump. I saw an instructor landing under 2 out last weekend. It was low pull & long snivel under a Saber2. Learn the lesson and get back!
-
It can be. IMHO popular all-around canopies are not F111(low cf) anymore.
-
Wow! AFAK Mirage G4 is coming with a split d-bag.
-
Do you think its about your D-bag ?
-
He has told before. And before is not necerary means that students are midair.

What is the fastest wingsuit available at the moment?
phoenixlpr replied to Trae's topic in Wing Suit Flying
Airspeed or ground speed? You might have used GPS, so thats ground-speed. How about your tailwind? :) -
AFAK the student wind limit is 8m/s max in 10 minutes in Finland.
-
What is the best way to wash the rig (container)!
phoenixlpr replied to matereti's topic in Gear and Rigging
By doing at least a search before that. It was discussed several times here already. -
He is instructor, he should have some idea of student wind limits.

Things to Keep In Mind Regarding a Cutaway
phoenixlpr replied to Bandanarama's topic in Safety and Training
Indeed, but he can't count all his loses before bounce. What a pity, it so easy to become a piece of statistics.
