    You dont feel kinda like you bought a ferrari and now using it to go grocery shopping? SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying. Because nobody knows your skills better than you.

    You dont have to explain or justify yourself to anyone, of course... but i am just curious... Why would you want to jump a Velocity, especially at such a low wingloading, since you are not making "performance turns" and getting it to do what it's designed to do? Dont say openings, cause we know that there are WAAAY better opening canopies out there :) Edited to add... wow, even girls got canopy egos! :) I thought egos came with a pair of balls and a slighlty smaller then average penis SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying.

    Does anyone have info on X-keys hours of operation during the week, if at all? I will call them myself tomorrow, but if i can get a PM with details tonight - it would be appreciated.

    Apparently, i did... I thought we were talking JUST about usage and value of digital tools. Otherwise - i agree on all counts, without a doubt. SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying. Because nobody knows your skills better than you.

    I think the instruments SHOULD be used at all times. Your eyes WILL let you down a lot more often then a digital (Neptune) will. Especially at a new DZ, where the picture you're used to is completely different. By NO means STARE at it. Glance at it for set up and initiation point, but DO use it. Instruments are there for us to use. Why not use them? Airplane pilots use them. Most of the top canopy pilots use them... SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying.

    They certainly look like a great quality product... but much too expensive. Getting a used cheap one or learning how to make one yourself is a better option in my mind. Thanks for the input though. SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying. Because nobody knows your skills better than you.

    You may have a lot of jumps bro... but your judgment and common sense seem to be lagging behind. SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying. Because nobody knows your skills better than you.

    it is painfull isnt it? :) Another can of worms opened by the question... I can certainly see an 18 year old behind it SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying. Because nobody knows your skills better than you.

    In a good way, i assure you. Now THAT, my friend, is arguable SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying. Because nobody knows your skills better than you.

    LOL This is so funny, is it just me? Like two kids talking about video games or something. Sorry i really dont mean to be an ass, just find it very funny.

    Why are you people still talking about it? Too much talk. Tell you what... the weekend is almost here... Make a jump, dump and start swinging in the harness like a retarded kid on a swing. See what happens to the ceiling, er.. i mean your canopy. THEN tell us what happened SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying.

    while you make a perfectly good point and i agree with you 100%... wearing weights for swooping wasnt the topic of this thread. SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying. Because nobody knows your skills better than you.

    I dont wear any, but if i did, I'd wear no more then 15-20 lbs. Why? SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying. Because nobody knows your skills better than you.
  24. frost
    yes, i have... I wont be buying either, no matter how good they are. A decent weight belt can be made for MUCH less then that. The most i'd pay is 60 bucks - anything more and it's worth learning the ancient art of sewing :) SoFPiDaRF - School of Fast Progress in Downsizing and Radical Flying.
