    I guess I wouldnt know for sure, since I'm not buying gear that's beyond my abilities, but he seemed pretty interested in how many jumps I had and what my exit weight was when I started talking to him about the canopy I want to buy...

    Unfortionately, there just isnt many other options out there, most manufactures dont provide dual sided RSL systems.... I just removed my RSL btw since I have decided that I really dont like the idea of a reserve deployment if I dont ask for it. (that and 2 reserve rides have proven to myself that I am competent enough to pull my stinkin reserve) That logic makes sense to me, and I would consider buying such risers when I do replace them down the road if they were available. Edited to add: I would rather deal with a broken riser then a broken back or harness... FGF #??? I miss the sky...

    yea, that's pretty dumb... Why the hell would they do that? FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

    hmm.. I quick search has shown me nothing really except for good comments... (cept one guy that was contacting him about "sub-dealer" stuff) .. Seen nothing but good from end users. Particular thread in mind? FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

    503-630-JUMP is the phone number I just called him earlier today, sounds like a great place to get gear.. I will be ordering from him at the end of this week. FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

    This is a standpoint which should change if the user has a RSL installed... A riser break with a RSL could be deadly. FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

    yea, just imagine how bad it will be when I've got more jumps, sheesh! FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

    I like the part of the "Safety and Training" agenda which addresses electronic logs of jumps as proof of said jumps for ratings and licenses, .... hell yea :) (i.e. protrack / neptune) I'm horrible about writing jumps and getting stuff signed in my log book.

    You just dont want to see me in that super skin tight jumpsuit that I borrowed to *TRY* and match fall rates anymore, that's what the issue really is right (atleast I know I dont wanna be wearing that all the time

    as posted earlier, I checked into this big time when I started skydiving.. It is covered. But as always, do your own research too But, your good to go. FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

    And who says you have to tell your commander? Your command? Which branch... Only aviators in the Navy are "required" to get permission from their command to take part in skydiving, according to current Navy Regs, and that's because the aviation community has issued some new rules for "high risk activities" FGF #???

    SGLI does cover skydiving, I checked. FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.
  22. nate_1979
    If you are active duty, why do you not just use the SGLI? FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.
