  1. my new one. Sony PC109 Cannon 400D all mounted on a mindwarp. Lots of wires running through a small helmet. Not too bad though Na' Cho' Cheese
  2. I think its because some RSL's are on the right riser while the camera is on the left side. If the left riser gets hung up on your helmet while the right riser with rsl on it doesn't, it will deploy your reserve into your main. *maybe* Na' Cho' Cheese
  3. Just do it your self. Buy an old container. Cut the container off of it. Sew a stash bag on. Don't forget to take out the housings. But leave the cutaway housings in. I tacked down the reserve risers but I might just cut them off on my next harness. Well thats what I did anyways. Na' Cho' Cheese
  4. Yall want a single? by KoRn Na' Cho' Cheese
  5. 1))))))))Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor Na' Cho' Cheese
  6. A: So what do you think? B: Does it come in black? Na' Cho' Cheese
  7. when I was doing my WS training. I was being coached through with a throat mic. It worked well. Especially for the slower airspeeds. The only problem is when your up that high you will pick up a lot of other stuff. And while in freefall you'd here Joe Blow talking to Mr. Huck Bob, so it would be hard to hear your coach or what ever. You'd probably need like a private frequency or something. Na' Cho' Cheese
  8. depends on how well you take care of it. But I'd say these days about 850 jumps half life and people will retire their canopy at around 2000 jumps. Just my opinion Na' Cho' Cheese
  9. Dude you got a "newer" container than mine. My container was made when I was only 2 yrs old. Consider yourself lucky to have a container that new Na' Cho' Cheese
  10. well if... **you don't turn low to the ground **flare at the appropriate time/ sequence **know how to deal with the extra malfunctions that come with a more HP canopy ... Then you'll be fine. Edit: Obviously you always have to do those. Na' Cho' Cheese
  11. I've been using a Monarch 135 for GLing and its been working out ok. but I'm doing a kiting technique and the Monarch will Kite pretty easy... my stiletto seems to kite way way way easier. Before I go try my stiletto (120) I'm asking if it makes a good intermediate GL canopy. It would seem to be good because it has a flat glide. Opinions??? Na' Cho' Cheese
  12. HA! Nice. I've heared lots of mixed reviews on the PD RDS. The weight of the rings helps keep the sliders shape but if they're heavy then IMO it would make it open faster. Na' Cho' Cheese
  13. Container: Power Racer Main Canopy: Katana 97 Reserve Canopy: PD Low Bulk PD106R AAD: Vigil Extras: RDS, PC1000, Camera Jacket, 5 Hours of tunnel. Na' Cho' Cheese
  14. DAMN. I just left there. and a wingsuiter showed up. Na' Cho' Cheese
  15. alright dude we get it. You did your AFF jump. Na' Cho' Cheese
  16. 0:3:0 Got my new cannon rigged up it takes sweet pics. Na' Cho' Cheese
  17. Hellz Yeah... I haven't done a cool WS jump in awhile. Na' Cho' Cheese
  18. I went ahead with the flat top mod thing. Its pretty sweet. The pictures seem to have the illusion that it sits up way off my head but its pretty flush with my helmet. Na' Cho' Cheese
  19. It is expensive if your not in the sport. But if you hang out at the dropzone and get a job at the DZ then its really cheap (relatively speaking). For me I learned how to pack parachutes. 5 pack jobs got me one student jump. Now 2 pack jobs will get me up in the air. Na' Cho' Cheese
  20. you serial? I'm sorry thats sounds gay to me. Back when swooping was getting starting they didn't have digital alti's. Instead they use mental sight pictures to get their altitudes right. Even today people use sight and aren't playing the RR. I do agree that digital alti's definitely make swooping much easier. But I wouldn't/ didn't use one to start out with. Na' Cho' Cheese
  21. having made similar down size. (stiletto 120- xfire 99) was the recovery arc. Dude you need to start your turns much much higher on the crossfire than on the stiletto Na' Cho' Cheese
  22. Did you send them to white pass? There was a kid who was wearing some full face there. Na' Cho' Cheese
  23. 5280' long runway. Red=experienced (100 jumps) Yellow= student and novice Blue= swoop ditch Na' Cho' Cheese
  24. Yeah if it comes down to that I'll get one. But to ask another question can I just get a quick release and mount all by itself on my helmet. **or even simply just drill a hole at the top and glue some washers with no mounts. As far as mounting still cameras I have no idea. Na' Cho' Cheese
