    I didn't know a Vigil could give jump data. It logged a 3s freefall on my last wingsuit jump from 12,200'. Not very useful.why would you do a clear and pull at altitude in a wingsuit ?? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

    the closest in Italy AFAIK would be http://www.accademiadiparacadutismo.it/ in CAsale MOnferrato (close to Milano) Or in France maybe Le Luc http://www.cepca.fr/page9.php scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

    Bigger planes, bigger crowd jumping together. We don't know each other. These could be the reason for canopy collisions over the landing area. Lazy tracking, bad separation can be the reason for canopy collisions after opening. that plus often faster canopies / bigger speed differences between canopies... scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

    lay canopy on gravel, drive repeatedly with SUV on top of canopy for a couple of minutes. It should remove slickness scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

    It is serious enough, has been well handled, and you trust your pilot which is a good thing. Video/photo would not be good enough to be sold. Go jump again and enjoy it. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

    Best trick would be : Don't practice at home alone. Either have someone come over and help you, or wait till you get to the DZ. you will save time, energy and frustration, and you won't be learning wrong. And enjoy your beer

    So now if you built a second canopy, would you be recognised as a parachute builder ? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

    Not necessarily. If done by the same rigger that packed it then the container just needs to be re-closed. I wouldn't switch a handle for someone without a full inspection and re-pack on someone else's pack job though.handle can be switched without opening scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

    So what's the News ? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

    If that is all an AAD had to do then yes, it would be simple. It is all of the exceptions that make it complicated. For example, what is "freefall" speed? We have wingsuits and canopies flying with each other now. It's complicated. Good point - I would want the ability to change my freefall speed. When I wingsuit, I may not reach the ~80 mph required. Honestly, I've been thinking of switching the thing to student mode for wingsuiting, but would really prefer ~50 mph. The other thing that I want to be able to do is to download the data from the unit - see what it sees.are you sure you understand how your AAD works ? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

    I thought that gay couples had better taste and would have some chic food and not pizza for their weddings. Hell, they could ask Normiss for some sous-vide stuff. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
