Hey phreezone, i strongly dont recomend doing that. last spring i bought a used saber135. the outside A's and B's were 3 inches out of trim but the rest were o.k just like yours. so me and my rigger whom i was learning under decided to change those outside lines. besides the fact it took all freakin day it made shit way worse. after the home reline job my openings were fucking crazy. spun up like a spinetto, dove straight forward, all kinds of wild shit. however it did fly better once i regained control of the wild horse. i wish i just paid the 200 bucks and had pd reline it. good luck

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Reply To I somehow doubt this student did this out of pure stupidity. It just seems.. well.. too stupid. __________________________ no way this kid was as pegged out as they come. theres no way he would be heads up enough to do that. not to mention his reserve came out via rsl.

i got one more. aff student was so totaly unstable the affI dumped the students main around 7000ish. under a good canopy at around 2000ft this brainchild choped his main, and went to reserve. when asked what the fuck? he said i was told that if i havent pulled by 2500 to got to my reserve. and i never did pull, (the instructor pulled for him) so i went to my reserve.

o definitly pm me the story. and as for that retard on t.v. that pulled his cutaway, well all i can say is a quote from brian burke, "sometimes its best to just let them go in". lol

man im spitting out pearls tonight.... -
in a conversation with a friend i said the following about Jen from the sugar gliderz: "when she talks to you she makes you feel like your the most important person in the room. she doesnt talk down to you nor does she talk on your level, she brings you up to her level then communicates feelings and thoughts." that may be one of the best compliments ive given someone. awsome thread moody.

learning definitly comes in spurts. but also perception can make you feel your not improving, when actualy your expectations have risen subconsiously. for me learning comes in revelations.all of a sudden something will click thats usualy has been there all along just waiting for you to realize it. then Blam!!!! it clicks. its the time period between Clicks that feels like your not improving. just remember sometimes improving is simply waiting till the next click. peace -
lmfao that is so funny. i think this thread is going to have me rolling. our s&ta once wrote T.U.G. in a student logbook. Take Up Golf

So you want to be an instructor?
tattoojeff replied to mikkey's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
sounds like shes barley qualified to be a thinking person let alone a skydiver. last month myself and a few other skydivers just made it back from a long spot. we were at the far end of the runway. our runways about 3/4mile with the dz facilitys in the middle. as im gathering up my canopy i watched this low time jumper take a seat on the grass. i asked her if she was hurt, she replied no im waiting for someone to pick us up,arent they going to send a car!!! call me an asshole but that is a personality type not suited for skydiving. unwillingness to help themselves. -
in reply to: [If you are stupid enough not to pull...you are stupid enough to hook a good canopy in. If you are stupid enough to get knocked out....you are stupid enough to get your neck broken in the same type of collision] ___________________ you got to be kidding. getting corked into or knocked out isnt stupid. its a random occurence with a probability only increased or decreased by selecting whom you jump with, but never omitted. no one can truthfuly state ill never loose altitude awarness. however in your case if you did you wouldnt be around to know it. so i guess you cant loose. even the most heads up athletes make mistakes and have accidents, this does not make them stupid, only human. stupid is seeing a saftey device as a sign of weekness.***
