  1. Looks like someone already make it happen And yes - it's cool! Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  2. I usually freepacking (w/o any bags) my sweaters, or psychopack it Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  3. This one? Put inside a fully transparent main/reserve should be cool))) P.S. Transparent jumpsuit + cute girl + this rig should be wery cool Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  4. For real!!!! St. Petersburg russia right? Right Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  5. Organize Tracking dive it's damn cool! Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  6. from the pic... why use a pullup cord to make a first stow? It's looks like you put canopy in the bag quite well (almost all in the bag) so IMHO there shouldn't be any problem to just stow it w/o any additional tools Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  7. Sounds like you have PZ-81, rogallo type reserve Talka - is name of the complete setup (H/C + reserve (PZ-81) +main (Radar if memory serves me well)) (but 107?) http://www.zavod3.ru/view_product.aspx?prodid=16 BTW not a bad reserve, still popular in many of DZ's here (in Russia) Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  8. Yes, allways train my EP when it's time to repack) P.S. you might made it a poll:) Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  9. Can't land this damn thing Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  10. Thanks for the pictures... About extra loop - if my understanding correct this loop is "open" I mean that it's can be released from both ends (coz' it formed from 2 different stows) so even if it catch something this wouldn't cause a lock? Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  11. Know that;) just didn't saw it myself:) BTW how often you do that stuff? It's really progressive method to not to sitting at the DZ's bar before the wind calm down Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  12. Ditto, have heard but never saw the landing of backwardhiiked canopy:) Here some video of jumps in windy day... They didn't hooked their canopies backward though... http://www.agoiavia.narod.ru/video/boltaet.wmv Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  13. Any thought how long One can be hanged in the harness before his leg would be serious damaged due to poor blood circulation? Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  14. So...when we can see this stowing method? Sir's, pls post some pic's of the "split stowing" Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  15. Just thought too: 1) You'll still have your silly chance of using the main if it will stay in your rig;). 2) IMHO it's make a sense to look that yellow cables didn't release before you deploy the main coz if they did - dump the main give you only chances to seek your ~1000$ somewhere below or worse... 2Billvon: agree, if One don't sure of what he should to do - that just follow the trained EP, but if One be able to keep the coolhead and recognize the problem during freefall having enough altitude IMHO he has the right to think and don't throw out his main if he see that the 3-rings no more secured by the white loop... Just MHO Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  16. If there is a good chances that yellow cable came out of the one/both white loop, why dump the main (at least without check the both loops)? why not to straight for reserve? Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  17. H-mm, I thought this is a standard technique and learned at FJC in "landing on obstacles" section =/... Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  18. And best can exceed 1.35 w/o wing Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  19. It he has BIG bag I believe he should share it with the others in that load... yah, I wanna be in that load ________________________________________________ Why drink and drive if you can smoke and fly... Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  20. As he wish to:) (Probably if he want it he know why) :). Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  21. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Do you know where I can buy a slightly-used PZ-81 for cheap? Hee! Hee! I have a few jumps on Delta 2 and Paradactyl and would like to keep a Rogallo canopy around for novelty jumps. Note: I trust Rogallos more than I trust rounds. Yes you can find PZ-81 in Russia Here you can post your request Edit to add the link: http://www.dropzone.ru/board/index.php?catid=14&set_add_ad_cat= (if you know russian:) if you don't but have a strong interest of PZ-81 - PM me) two current classifieds post: http://www.dropzone.ru/board/detail.php?siteid=1838 - Almost out of date (12 years) reserve with 2 ride for ~70$ http://www.dropzone.ru/board/detail.php?siteid=1511 1999 DOM with 0 rides Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
  22. did that already here: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1785980
  23. H-mm may be I am mot right but whether in two out situation best choice - to have both reserve and main square and same size?? Especially if you unconscious and not able to cut away? I was learned that round reserve and square main does not work together due to the significant difference of forward speed (there was at least one fatality when unexperienced skydiver didn't chop his main IN TIME being under round reserve so the main did several spirals around his reserve and stifle it) while there is 2 potentialy landing configuration of square main and reserve (espetialy same sized).

  24. Fully Agree! What a to write the month before the date? (it's some time cunfusing when working with docs) Date/Month/Year!!! P/S offtopic Why drink and drive, if you can smoke and fly?
