This is the first time I hear about it. Pictures please!

Reserve inspection & repack turnaround time?
phoenixlpr replied to angrypeppers's topic in Gear and Rigging
The actual work is about 2 hours only. -
What do you mean by not so forgiving? Was it flying strait or was it diving/spinning?
-
Take it simple! Skydiving and packing is a religion. At lest you need faith.
-
What was preventing you from kicking the other direction? Probably the inertia from the twisting of the lines. If Im hanging still its not that easy to get the momentum. Its not a big deal to get rid of the line twist on a big'O student/square canopy.
-
Are round canopies ok for you? Why don't you jump them? You can find and old ZP cheap that flies and lands better.
-
Stay away from those even if you are really broke. I can find better canopies easily.
-
There are other countries too where some part of the gear (H/C, reserve)has limited, 20 years or shorter life cycle.
-
Short answer for you: its not happening with a student canopy.
-
You don't even need uneven risers. Do a hard riser turn after opening when breaks are still set..... The turn/dive might not stop by itself....
-
Have you ever read the receipt or order form? Its coming with soft links anyway.
-
You seem to look for a coat by a button.... There is 2 versions of Cameye II out there anyway: v1.4 and 1.6 ...
-
What ? Some swoop by beep heros can fly a crossbraced with about 500-600 jumps safely....
-
Excuse my ignorance, but who is Mr. Bill??? His nick name is "Search". He is living on the right hand bottom corner of all page here.... Or just check to skydivingmovies.com. Here are several Mr. Bills there.
-
There are countries where skydiving rules contain prohibition of smoking in a certain perimeter. I hate smoking around skydiving rigs. I don't know what those would think if I would start playing with fireworks next to their rig or jump suits....
-
Hehe. Here is a quest for you. How many packing tricks can you find on these pictures? You may find some hints if you search my posts
-
Look: even a NAvigator 220 can be swooped .You can learn lots of things on that canopy too: landing in rears, rears to toggle transition...
-
Don't worry too much, if times come you will......
-
Sure when your airline or insurance company gives you that instead of compensation.
-
Sure. Multiple selections, please!

bat wing 134 specs please help my friend out
phoenixlpr replied to CKSCUBA's topic in Gear and Rigging
Try to contact Aerodyne. Batwing is their baby. -
Er, I am not following? *** Vis major Or you may say, that shit happens.
-
Vis major? I got something like that. I was a foul not checking brakes after got my canopy recovered.
-
I had the same opinion on Cobalt before my first cut-away from a line twist and that was not a wing suit jump. I still love my Cobalt, but I have more respect for her. Its a bit ground hungry for me at WL 1.6. I think I would jump a bigger Cobalt with wing suit.
