  1. nah, it's easy to remember. but at least you see what i mean. they aren't always the same at every drop zone. plussssss he lives in the uk... they drive on the wrong side of the road!!! who knows how different uspa/bpa sigs differ. .::runs and hides::. i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce
  2. i've seen people fly through before and i'm totally jealous. there still are those who repeat and spend a lot of time in the tunnel (umm... that would be me!)... this stuff is so addicting, so expensive, and so much harder than it looks (i've had repeats... but learn from each one) you might want to check this out: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=898126;page=1;mh=-1;;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC have fun! heidi i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce
  3. Wow! I thought the common sign for Pull Now was index pointing. How do you shake harness on a release dive? see! thats why i told him to hold off. but he's in the uk anyway... i'm not sure how different their system works (i haven't gotten the chance to sample an aff jump over there yet-haha) good question though. at that dz (spaceland) harness shake or if you saw your instructor deploy, both meant pull. i didn't learn the index finger signal until i jumped at perris, but they also use it at skydive houston. I hope your just confusing some of the signals from others that you were given, because if not someone using the signals as you distribed is seriously F**ked Up and giving the wrong ones from the AFFI sylibus. Very true
  4. i would wait. i've jumped around to more than a few schools (not ideal or recommended usually... but i was in another state)... anyway, some of the same hand signals from dz1 were used only several meant something entirely different at dz2. for example: pinky & thumb meaning "check your arms" now means "relax" ..... or shaking harness which meant "pull now!" at one meant "arch" at another. i ran into this with other signals 4 fingers pointed inward, pointed finger, and another one (i forget which-- fist maybe?) i'd wait until you find out how your dz does things to avoid confusion in the air. the signals are really easy to learn ... but relearning can mess with your head a little bit! just my 2 cents... for free
  5. hey travis, don't you wish we could do this in real life? "nooooooo, i didn't say that... edit! delete!!"
  6. yep. that's why they are starting to seal w/ rubber corks and even screw tops (well, that's not WHY, but they are less porous) heidi i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce
