    Racers are now the most expensive rigs out there. Power Racer's are $2150 while the shadow NOS are $1350. Na' Cho' Cheese

    my dad and I have NOS's and he used to skysurf and I freefly I don't see much of a problem with the freefly friendly thing Na' Cho' Cheese

    mines a 1993 NOS and it still does. I don't know if the 2K3 racer does or not. I like the reflexes tuck tab pic protector. Na' Cho' Cheese

    I'm jumping a paracommander tomarrow. We're putting it in a racer tandem rig so I don't have to worry about the capewells Na' Cho' Cheese

    yes: pin protection because its on your back, 4 flaps for fast reserve deployment (and pop-top), comfortable, looks. Na' Cho' Cheese

    just about every entry reads: "another solo from 10K in a tandem factorie's 182" Na' Cho' Cheese

    because I'd reather be going down under a round reserve. if your under a square your going downwind and it will hurt (maybe not because your knocked out) if you hit an obstacle. Na' Cho' Cheese

    I just bought a PC7 can any lense fit on the camera or do I have to find a "PC7 lense"? Na' Cho' Cheese

    but what if you were knocked out in freefall and had an aad fire. I'd rather be unconscious under a round than a square. Na' Cho' Cheese

    Tandem master says to student: you know if I do good on this jump next time they'll let me go by myself. Na' Cho' Cheese

    and another thing... I don't like how jumpshack sets up their pud unless its different on a 2K3 but on a NOS like my dads and my uncle's rigs it looks kind of sloppy. You have to use your fingertips to get a hold of the thing. Na' Cho' Cheese

    dual steering lines on a sport canopy? as for that I would just make sure you lines stay in the center when pulling the tail around. the rubber band trick will help. Na' Cho' Cheese

    I'm just trying to make things better and more safer... malfunction wise. oh and on my personal rig I don't stow the lines in rubber bands. I think I set some kind of packing record. I packed my main parachute in under 2 minutes from the time I stepped in the hangar too stuffing the boc. Na' Cho' Cheese

    well its obviously not necessary because there's a lot of people who don't do and still get perfect openings. I'm just saying that the "rubber band trick" will help eliminate the line over problem. Na' Cho' Cheese

    yeah they usually don't break and you slipknot tie them like on your d bag. Look at the way they pack the tandems. On icuras tandem canopies which don't have break settings, you'll usually find them there. Na' Cho' Cheese

    yeah let me try to explain it better cause I can't find a picture. On the inner most D line put a rubber band on each one. one rubber band on one of the right d lines and one on the left d line(you know when you propack you split your canopy in half). then you take your stablizer lines and your steering lines and stow them in the rubber bands. left lines go in the left rubber, right lines go in the left rubber. what this does is keep all your lines in the center of the packjob.

    on the earlier madels its right on the back of the main pin flap Na' Cho' Cheese

    yes thats what we think too. Na' Cho' Cheese

    typo? the newer eclipe's have a major typo... "skydiving is a dangerous sport which may cause cause erious injury or death" Na' Cho' Cheese

    when I say "he slowed down" i mean his vigil had fired, and he had a reserve. then you would ask why did he pull the pilot chute...? well he thought he had horse shoe malf. so he pulled. but when he looked up and saw the reserve he started pulling in his pilot chute(the pilot chute didn't deploy the main) Hope that cleared the confusion. this is hard to put into words.

    A friend of mine just got a vigil and put about 200 jumps on it. Just today it wouldn't turn on. He asked me to come and look at it and with much trying I finally got it to turn on. it said it was set for pro and ready to go. My friend and I did a 2 way and we broke off and he had a aad fire at 2500 as he was pulling his pilot chute!!! luckily he slowed down enough so it didn't open but still. sending it to the factory to get that free cutter replacment and to see whats wrong with it.

    I throw the slider over my shoulder then flake it out. my dad does it opposite. but what I do to prevent a line over is once everything is flaked grab all the lines and stow them in rubberbands on the d lines. the wrap the tai. Na' Cho' Cheese

    Racer

    packing_jarrett reviewed admin's gear in Containers

    The racer is the nicest rig out there. If you get it custom made(or even if you don't) it fits so nice on your back. It has a lot of experience making the rigs... like 20 years. their reserve deploying method is the fastest because of the pop-top. I recommend this rig to all who wants the nicest rig on the market!!!

    I think differently. I think only a select few or those that deserve to jump should do it. When I say "deserve" I mean kids who have parents who've been in the sport for a very long time, or played an important role in Skydiving. Na' Cho' Cheese
