Chuck, Did they change the shape of the "boomerang"...that one totaly looked like a penis...it's a great idea having a full face mindwarp...but without the cone head look.... marc

a PUD is just the deployment handle....a POD(Pull Out Deployment) is another type of systme....I have a PUD on my BOC.... Marc otherwise known as Mr.Fallinwoman....

I personaly dont think a hackey is any more prone to premature openings than the freefly handle. I though have a freefly handle on my wings. reason? because I like how it feels in my hand when I go to throw it...for some reason a hackey handle to me just feel's weird...maybe this is because I was on crappy rental gear for so long with the plastic handle which is similar to the freefly handle...who knows... marc

How about pictures of a cut away from a spinning malfunction when you are on your BACK. THAT is my fear when jumping higly loaded elipticals and an RSL.... Marc otherwise known as Mr.Fallinwoman....

I am gonna add my comments on wings. I had some sizing problems initially...sent my wings back....they sent it back to me right away for rantoul...the chest strap wasn't quite right..a little too high...plus when I ordered it I had wanted the smaller chest strap but didn't put it on the order form. I sent it off to them...they put what's called an accuracy yoke on my rig(the chest strap is 2" lower than normal)..and put the type 17 chest strap on it....now it is just so damn comfy....plus it still looks so damn cool....god I love my wings...and Heather and the guys over there were just sooooo good about everything...hopefully I wont have any size issues when I order my next wings...

Bill, does it only open up this fast when you have a cutaway? or if I have a hard PC pull...and deploy the canopy, am I gonna break my neck cause it opens so fast? marc

I've seen parachutes stolen when cut away from the northern residential area's by DeLand...so your saying is some little bastard steals your main....and if you have insurance against theft you can't get your money?..... why bother having insurance then...

in chicago area they were like 40 or 50 cents...each...when I lived in florida it cost me almost 5.00-6.00 bucks to make it to work everyday on the 417...but man it was so much nicer than taking the fucking I-stroll...I mean I-4... Marc otherwise known as Mr.Fallinwoman....

Have you ever gotten ripped off buying used gear online?
skymedic replied to Kirils's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I bought my dash M 218 on Ebay for 500 bucks from a guy...besides having to send it back in for the repair the thing was perfect...never packed never deployed...even Terry Pyke from aero tech products was impressed when he saw how good of shape it was in for the price...as everyone said before..it's all about communication...I found out who the guy was called the DZ's he said he jumps at to check him out...it all worked out great... marc -
Adenocard???... were using cardizem where I work now.....significantly fewer side effects...transient asystole being one of them.... and if the cardizem doesn't work then we end up gong back to the adenocard... Marc otherwise known as Mr.Fallinwoman....

Sarge, do you know this as a fact? did Roger or Missy tell you this? is this YOUR first hand knowledge or is this a 2nd, 3rd, 4th hand information? just curious...if it is your first hand information then excuse me...if not...dont spread rumours...unless you have facts to back it up... marc

Very little forward drive with full leg extension....

I love physics...it's the profs that drive me nuts.... Marc otherwise known as Mr.Fallinwoman.... -
That's right...no stupid questions for sure... imagine driving a boat with an anchor out...that's what flying a canopy can be like with a non collapsable PC out back...you can do it...but it's not the most efficient way to go about it. PD says that no matter what size canopy you jump you should have a collapsable...others say that larger sizes dont need it. cocking your PC is for collapsable CENTERLINE pilot chutes...bungee collapsable don't need to be cocked....but they have there own problems over the centerline... hope this helps with some of your questions....
