  1. I am pretty sure that if you buy enough tickets, they will fly you all day long. It could very well be that according to their experience, they cannot guarantee operations due to the small number of jumpers. Also in some places, you cannot jump on sundays, or not all day, due to noise restrictions/Church operations etc.... scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  2. just as a quick question, which DZ/Country (if you prefer to remain vague) condones jumping such canopies at those wingloading with your experience ? Seriously, slow down a bit. Read a bit about Sangi, maybe get him on Facebook. He might be the right person to keep you on your feet for a long time. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  3. 25€ is the jump ticket, 9€ is the extra for kit hire. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  4. You still have the choice of jumping without an AAD or jumping your rocket on dedicated jumps only and jumping another canopy which will not let you exceed AAD firing parameters on "regular" jumps. It seems you know all your options yet decide to take the most cornering one. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  5. I own 2 AAD's in my 2 main rigs. I don't have a problem jumping without. I have had an AAD save. I was happy I had it in my rig that day and it was turned on. The week after that I was jumping without an AAD without any second thought. I believe AAD's should be optional, and an educated choice. I believe that wanting one but not being able to afford one is a poor choice. Pun intended. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  7. brand wars. Never underestimate brandwars. Online coaching is also a thing. Both activities make wingsuiting pretty close to swooping scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  9. I know it is used sometimes in reserve parachutes to prevent stickyness (Parachutes de France Service Bulletin on sticky spaghetti lines) Now why would you use a full bottle ? For visual effects "à la Omar" ? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  10. This is a reserve that tested positive at the Ph test. Free is too expensive. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  12. I wonder if all these people who have their kids shooting themselveskeep their guns afterwards ? -Do they still want guns ? -Does "society" deems they are still trustworthy with a gun ? Leaving loaded guns where 2 yrs old kids can grab them is NOT a valid educational point in my neck of the woods. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

    FIFA

    the US are asking for them. Don't worry, the bill will be covered 10fold with what "your" legal system will try to get from them. Oh that, and Fuck Football Association. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  19. cameras should be mandatory for low time jumpers. They provide proof of their noobyness, and endless entertainment. Noobs should be FORCED to view a daily 12 hours of other n00b-movies (we call them blue-green videos) scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  20. I also linked this thread to www.wuza.com which is the main french skydiving forum. Maybe some people will get back to you here. Loic Jean-Albert is more or less a native of that DZ
  21. Ahhhh the French.... scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  22. I know people who used to work there, the place is very welcoming for sports jumpers. Try joining them on their Facebook page. Also for South africa, maybe go there when they have bigger boogies. Good place to go too. I jumped at Johannesburg Skydiving Club, and Pietermaritzburg for Easter boogie. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  24. If you want to change to student AAD, make sure your canopy will not fire it either. Change to student loading and adopt student flying. No fast and low turning. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
