Give me the low turn with crosswind/downwind landing any day. Once you have seen the results of electrocution you dont want to even go there..... Marc

OK, You pull in the PC and bridle, but you better not pull it in too far because then you will pull the pin out and get stuck with what you are trying to avoid. dont think I would try this. Marc

I had this guy Mike Mier from sebastian (he's at the ranch now) teach me. when I offered to pay he looked at me funny. this guy had packed chutes for 8 hours then took another three hours of his own time to teach me how to pack this monster 280 navigator. He is a great guy!!! and an example of what skydivers are. marc I also agree that this should be taught during progression... Marc

When you learn how to pack michele they will teach you all about it. You have to be able to replace a line stow for your A license.... Marc

I personaly like my "ninja" stance. One foot in front of the other usualy for me left in front, right to the rear. kinda like a martial arts stance. with my legs some what brought up to give me some spring. I found early on my legs ,even though right together, they tended to be locked at the knee. that is bad. also helps me to get ready to run it out and if I see I have to PLF I just quickly bring my other leg up to my left and PLF to the left.

This is to all you riggers out there. Do you know the pack volume max for the J-4? On the SunPath website it says it will hold a 210 ZP tight. but which ZP canopy's. I want to put a 230 hornet in the thing knowing they have smaller pack volumes. What do you guys/gals think? Marc
