  1. no wind tunnels in the UK. There are strong rumours that plans are in place for one to be build in London (skyventure orlando type with fans sucking the air from the top), but untils its up, I wont really beleive it.... Besides, the cost of things in the UK will probably make serious tunnel time here more expensive then a cheap trip to Orlando... Remi Muff 914
  2. Most full time UK jumpers stay in the UK all year long as the dzs run all year long (in the southern 1/2 of the country anyways, dont know about the north), and if they would go away, it would be in the winter, not the summer. There are a few POMs (but not a ton) who call Empuria home in the winter. Also, I thing that what used to be Train In Spain in Southern Spain (RIP) is now Skydive Portugal, a couple of hours away from Lisbon (but its mostly Germans from what I hear) Remi Muff 914
  3. shivers........ (or good troll) Some here know that I'm not a big RSL fan, but that in the end its a jumper's decision to jump with or without one. But this is dangerous thinking..... Why not just cut away and wait for the CYPRES to fire? Remi Muff 914
  4. Or, all you yanks could go to the Espace Boogie in France where the regular plane is an Antonov 72 Jet tailgate.... (if they decide to run the boogie this year)... SWEEEEEET plane http://bird3.bird.ch/Russians/An72/AN72P01.html Remi Muff 914
  5. Or how about that rain drops hurt bacause of their pointy end you fall into! lol PS: the oxygen going through your skin is completely true.. in fact, the folds in the cheeks we get in freefall is a natural adaptation to increase the surface are and therefore increase intake. Remi Muff 914
  6. this 780 jump jumper landed his Raven 181 without any problem on a no wind day after a 14,000 foot ride this summer. I am by no means comparing my level with his, but I did not have any issue with the landing at all. Remi Muff 914
  7. Is there anything planned around August 4 to 10 around MTL? We'll be doing our Canadian Tour Of Duty (ie relative work) and a bit a jumping on the side.... Remi Muff 914
  8. All in good fun guys!!! Bonne annee a vous deux! PS: moué, chus une grosse moumoune, mais ma femme m'aime pareil! lol PPS: better stop the french posts, or we'll get flamed again! lol Remi Muff 914

  10. Hi Eric, my understanding is that ravens have a reputation to open "quikly". It may not be ideal for you if you have a bad back. Remi Muff 914
  11. Thx for the link Gus... interesting reading (for us frogs anyways!).. How freaky would that be: RW jump, open at 2.5 and go up again!!! lol Remi Muff 914
  12. Skreamer said then Slappie said Why am I not surprised that Skreamer has gotten viri? lol Remi Muff 914
  13. L&B's (maker's of the Dytter line) after sale support is second to none. I have tried a few times to get in touch with Parasport Italia (maker, or at the least, seller of the Skytronic) and have never got any response. This is the view and expereince of many many people and a few dealers too. Allthoug this is something I can live with for a helmet, its not the case for a electronic device. I have a Z1, but a Pro Dytter. Remi Muff 914
  14. we're still talking about AV software, right? Remi Muff 914

  18. read the darn SB Clay.. it was not over the weight and speed limit. Remi Muff 914
  19. no matter what the wingload is, reserves are TSOed at a certain max weight and airspeed. It should not have been a factor if the weight and airspeed were under the TSO limit. So who will you pay that paycheck to Clay? Remi Muff 914
  20. What is really puzzling is how long has he waited to post this! The banner add is the Javelin one and that hasnt been used on here for months! Were u hidding Clay? Remi Muff 914
