Haven't had the chance to try the Safire2. I have a Nitro/n 150 & 135. I like them in my belly rig, but still have a Sabre1 in my WS rig. The wonderful soft opening of the Nitron is just a bit too slow for my taste in a WS. I did have the opportunity to demo a Cayenne Light from Firebird. Very nice canopy. Very similar to Safire2/Nitron in the soft on heading openings. Has a flat glide for those long spots, a light elliptical planform for responsive turns. Uses a low bulk fabric so it packs about one size smaller. Has excellent response throughout the toggle stroke with lots of flare power on the bottom end to really shut it down. The demo fleet is in Eloy. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

Not sure where you get that idea. All the sky hook does is use the main as a PC. If you start you EPs in a shitty body position, you will be in that position whn the skyhook pulls out you reserve. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

I'm glad I have more demo jumps on reserves than due to EPs. I've had the opportunity to use my own PDR just once and hope I never have to use my OPT, but know it is a great reserve because I put 2 jumps on the demo at a boogie. And I give props to the jumper for posting the video. Most folks would not do so for fear of the possible abuse. It has opened the conversation about what our EPs should be. So we can all be reminded without the pain of a broken bone. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

What happens when the designated person is on a load or is busy teaching? Instead, just put up signs saying "If you have questions, ask any skydiver you see. But you may have to ask them to STOP talking." 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

If the suit is too long, did you remove the bootie extensions that were installed to make it fit a taller jumper? What type of shoes are you jumping in? If they are sleek runners, get a pair of really chunky skate shoes. The larger shoe will fill up the toe of the bootie and take up some of the slack. And don't be hatin' on the suit. It was a damn good price. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

I won a 50% off certificate for a complete system. It would easily save a jumper somewhere around $1500. Seeing as I wasn't needing a complete rig, made a trade with a newish jumper that was jumping what was basically gutter gear. The deal- She kept the main and I got the almost worthless old container/reserve once her new rig was delivered. I wanted the rig for water jumps to save my normal rig from that wear and tear. She definitely got the better end of the deal $$ wise. I could have sold the cert for real cash, but figure the trade saved me from having to scramble around to find a rig to jump into the Blue Hole in Belize and maybe a few points deposited in the karma bank account. One of the best deals I've made.

Mine was a '67 Beetle. Bought it when I was working the summer down in Sandy Ego before my junior year in high school. Didn't tell my dad about it. When I got it home, he told me they were unsafe and couldn't drive it. Was sold shortly there after. Move forward 3 years and he helps find me a car so I can get around at college. And the car he found? '70 Beetle. I never did understand my dad. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

Dumb question. Did you make sure to reinstall the two springs. Can't tell you how many times have helped someone look for the itty bitty springs because they opened the back and didn't know the springs were inside. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

TSO, no need. Using your customers to test your modification to their life saving last chance safety device.? Good thing it is only a recommendation that you don't use it instead of DO NOT USE IT.

Read the sticky at the top of the forum. USPA recommends 200 jumps and have your shit together. And with your exhibited skills to date, might want to wait a little longer. About the 3D, it works best close up. So unless you are up close and personal, it doesn't have the impact that you might want. 50 donations so far. Give it a try.

Nope, I seriously doubt any skydiver has attached a 3D GoPro to their helmet. It's not like we have a camera fetish or anything. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

You couldn't just have walked up and said "Hi mate". No, you had to walk around and lurk and wait to be discovered, kind of like making a huge entrance at the royal ball.

I bought a unit from him which I subsequently had turned back over to Pioneer. His attorney contacted me a few weeks back, and I advised her that Justin still owed me a bit of $$$. Since then Justin had sent me two emails saying that he will be calling me to discuss the $$$ issue. I have not gotten any phone calls from him, so I guess he and his legal team did just enough to keep the judge happy, but did not necessarily right all the wrongs... Welcome to the club. I got burned by Justin where he never produced the goods and came up with every bullshit lame excuse there is as to why he either couldn't get the gear or pay me back. It wasn't until I threatened to go public that he slowly started paying me back. He still hasn't made good in full. Until his feet are held to the fire, does anyone think he will change? Sure sounds like business as usual. I left Flock University because I wanted nothing to do with his "business" practices. I just feel sorry for all the others that have been screwed by him that will never get their money. I have heard he will be organizing at a boogie. I will be letting the DZO know that I won't be attending and that it is due to who the WS organizer is. If enough people voiced their opinion that they disapprove of the guy and refuse to participate in events where he is involved, it might finally be the wake up call that unless he gets his act together, he will be jumping nothing but solos. 50 donations so far.

I've been playing with a bunch of ideas and made them all way too complicated. Then it hit me. I'd be willing to bet everyone has the solution in their gear bag already. I don't have pictures, so just follow along. I'll be home in a couple days and can post pictures then. Untie/remove one side of the bungy from the leg strap. Tie a big knot on the loose end of the bungy. Get a spare closing loop out of your gear bag. Yes, you should have one. The eye of the loop shoud be at least 1/2"(15mm). Tie it to the attachment point on the opposite leg from the bungy. The free end with the eye should be about 2"(50mm). Here is where it might get complicated for some of the not too bright mouth breathers. Open the eye of the loop and slide the tip of eye back down over the shaft of the loop. This will create a new eye/slip knot as the loop kind of doubles over on itself. This might take a while to figure out, but once you do, it will seem so obvious. Thread the knot on the end of the bungy through the slip eye you have just created. Now just give a light tug on the bungy and the slip knot/eye of the closing loop will slide up the shaft of the loop and cinch down on the end of the bungy up against the knot. It will hold tight and won't come out. To separate, slide the slip eye back down the shaft of the loop to make it loose enough to get the knot on the end of the bungy to fit through. Both pieces are securely attached to the leg straps and when either connected or loose, won't get hooked on anything or cause any damage to suit/padded bench seat/body parts. Give it a try. And the next time you see me after you realize how simple this is and don't have to buy an RSL shackle or custom part, you can show your thanks by buying me a beverage(one that has an umbrella and wedge of fruit).
