I would jump without it. I had jumps without AAD.
-
I dont agree with you. Just think about a misfire.
-
If I were him I would rent a gear for awhile. You can save more money by not buying any gear, because you dont know what do you need and you dont know what are you going to be capable to handle by jump nr14.
-
You may improve your packing, thats up to you, but you cannot improve flare of the canopy.......
-
"Just keep in mind that some folks find the ZP very difficult to pack because they are so slippery - " if they are new....... I suspect he is wondering to buy used gear. Im sorry but easy to pack is not my nr1 priority. IMHO I would not buy any F111/cfm canopy.
-
Try a ZP main in the same size. The cfm/F111 main has just only one advantage: price. Theres glide and flare/lift on the ZPs side.

Ive started jumping with RS4/A. Its a round East German military canopy. It was simple and cheap, but a pain for packing.

Sweet winter: snow of 30-40cms, -6C -16C on ground. Grounded? It depends on your and your friends preference. It can be blue sky and slite wind, if you are willing to jump in cold :). I was told that some maiacs are visiting spanish DZs this time of year.

Its a kindda fun to jump in Finland :). We have some spare landing area, but the main area/airfield is that has been chopped out from the forest. You may find other words for landing out here :).

Are you talking about Sabre or Sabre2? In gneral or just foir P150 vs. S120?
-
Id like to have a P150. Im going to be under 89kgs when I get mine :) I think Im going to skip demo. The delivery time is 10 weeks. It wont be nice weather here before April.
-
How was the Pilot150? Im planing to order one.
-
Ive found some interesing issues. No TSO cert number in manulas.... Washing canopy or waterjump is not recommended. One "Introductory" jump is recommended for e.g. Demon.
-
Does anyone know about that company? Has anyone tried their gear?
-
But resistence is ~c * v ^ 2 where c is a contant of the PC. He whanted to point out that under WL 1.1 speed is not so radical.....
-
Im not sure if its a real problem. I always test my PC before stow. I can close the container because the pin is hidden if PC is not cocked.
-
Would you be so kind and write some review at Gear section? Thanks.
-
Panform is one thing, trim is counts too. What is and advantage of Stiletto280 over Nav240?
-

Dont mix skydive with politics! -
I dont get it. I was told that ellipticals are performing better with higher WLs. Students have WL limits/recommendations. So what is the benefit on traning with ellipticals loaded
-
Thanks. It was quite descriptive. My kill-line PC is safe, I cannot close container if its not cocked because the closing pin is hidden :).
-
So if its cocked its pulling out the canopy, but what force makes it collapse?
-
Hiall, Ive just bought a kill-line PC. I was told its the best. Is it better than other solutions? Hos is it working at all? Thanks 4 your answers.

If you notice Its an inner religion of skydiving. There are fanatics, hates, believer and unbeliever. You have not summoned the fanatics yet. Im a believer = I have faith, but I could not tried yet. :)
