  1. Hi Jeff , you think that at my wingloading now at 2.0 would make much difference in safety to go to 2.1 or 2.2 .
  2. Hi Jeff I how does it flies at your wingloading , have you flown bigger ones , what you think about them ?
  3. Hi guys , I was wondering how are you loading your xaos-21 , I load mine at 1,97 to 1 and feel it needs to be loaded more . I would really apreciate your experiences on loading and flight performance . how do you feel this canopy should be loaded. Thanks
  4. What would happen with a xbraced rage
  5. Itried doing it this year on a sabre 135 , but I tried to launch but I was at 9000 msl so Icould not generate much speed so I crushed , I think that I could generate more speed with skis , but at that time there where only rocks.
  6. Is not of getting scared , If you do it for feeling like scared or adrenalin , and not for the flight , you should try base jumping or something else without quiting skydiving. You can do a lot of things and also skydive . the guys in the golf course near my airfield , really didnt belive me I ran out of fuel
  7. Nice rig Stu , come on guys give me more
  8. Hi guys , post your Micron pics please , so I can have an idea of how to design mine. Thanks.
  9. Yes precision should take the canopy to do a lot of testing , to see if was a canopy failure or not .to get some anwsers.
  10. jumped over a residential zone big houses we knew there were places to land but no one had been down to check the place , so we just did some head down over the place , opened and each one landed were he decided ,I saw a big space near a gas station but didnt noticed a small wire fence , until i was swooping , just went over it and stalled at the other side , and tumbled over some stones. swooped into into a motocross course nearly hited two dirt jumps the one in the enter of the swoop for one foot and hited the one in the end. then decided the place was to tight. Trying phyco pack I packed my main with a line twist , then jumped it from an ultralight at 2500 feet over a lake nearly at night without altimeter and had pilotchute hesitation because of the low speed exit.
  11. This is what it happened , there where clouds from 4000 to 6000, not even a hole in the sky , we went a load of 5 to see if we could jump , while in the sky we were over the clouds , we couldnt see the dz was an amazing view anyway , clouds from the mountain to the see, we didnt have gps and started to try to see if we could find the dz the guy on the groung told the pilot , that he heard the plane over the dz , so my friend decided to jump over the clouds , for his first jump on his vx 79 and me jumping a velocity 90 didnt want to land outside of the dz , I thought this is mad the other guys followed him , but I decided not to jump to a sea of clouds ,without a gps and because the guy on the ground heard the plane it is not really agood device. they opened over the clouds , my frien on the vx opened with line twists , was a really cool view of the four canopyes diving into the clouds , anyway they landed like 5 milles from the dz and had to take a bus to the dz. I thought this situations are were you have to say no.
  12. One time I jumped with one guy I didnt know , and this guy made loops and tryed to sit like crazy moving a lot, he had his toogle out, I tried to tell him but he didnt noticed it, he tried to fly to me, but I really didnt want to play with his crazy loop and toogle.It also happened to me jumping with my teammate, we were doing some sit with a lot of cloud down , when I saw my toogle playing around, Iwas like at 5000 feet went into a cloud and went belly into the cloud and just pulled with the toogle on my back , I thought my canopy a xaos loaded around 2 would mafunction , but it just opened fine it only turned a bit so I grabed the other riser , anyway I could see too much inside the cloud.
  13. What would be a good price for a new racer 2k3
  14. They sould give a prize to jumpshack to the less interactive and informative web site I have seen. It is just boring
  15. Nice rig Sid , I jump my old racer and is really comfortable , I think the new racer must fit really good. What would be a good price for a new one .
  16. Hello , I would like to know if someone has pics of the racer 2k3 because I am considering one for my next rig , I already own an old racer and a javelin , but I just prefer the fit of my racer . please post your pics If someone has them . Thanx
  17. Hello , I looked at their web page , and didnt find any mail to contact skydive the farm . I want to know if they jump on weekdays , because I want to spend 100 jumps.
  18. It just sounds so good , Is this dz open on weekdays , I am traveling to USA to make 100 jumps , and return and sounds sooooo good.
  19. Hello , I am planing to go to USA to jump at end of May , and I would like to hear , wich would be a very good place to go . good weather and cheap jumps (that sounded really good no?), anyway thats what Iam looking for. please give me some advice .
  20. Hello , I would like to hear what containers are using for a xaos-21 88 , I just cant get it into my javelin xrs , maybe there is a bigger bag to fit in my xrs , or something ?. My old racer is really bad for freeflying.
  21. Hi , does anyone has pics from this place , sounds really like a nice place and good prices . Does it work on weekdays , me and some friend are planning to go to jump somewhere in USA and this place sounds great.
  22. We will open a ultralight land area in our sky resort ,If I can land my ultralight at 9000 feet sure , I can do it with my canopy , anyway it will be cool jumping at the ski resort from the ultralight .
  23. It would be good to hear the advice , from someone that has landed lot of times in alttitude , so we dont have to experiment
  24. I think the better way would be , go and try to ground launch the canopi from the place were I plan to land , to have the idea how to it will fly at alttitude.
  25. Hi guys .I was thinking how high , can you land a hight performance canopy , let say 11000 feet msl . I am asking it because some friends landed in the ski center here in my country Chile , but they used big parachutes , and I was wondering if it is posible to land a xaos or vx in the mountain . Maybe it would be good doing some ground launching before.
