TaylorC replied to freeflydemon's topic in Swooping and Canopy Control

gotten my Xfire 119 loaded at 1.55 up to 56 MPH doing a 180 and up to 51 mph doing a 90. Just curious what speeds people have gotten a crossfire 2 119 loaded at 1.55 up to if anyone can help me out to see how far away i am from max speed.

whatever i am flying on my Xfire 2 119 and i think it is at 1.55 right now -
Relaxing is such a pain in the ass to do but you just gotta find out what relaxs you in the sky. For me its taking 30 seconds at about 8K feet to close my eyes and just think about something other than skydiving, for Tyler its chewing gum and for others its taking a nice deep breath before leaving. From what you have seen of me i am not the greatest freeflier but my best shit has always been from when i wasn't really thinking. It just went through my mind i want to take that dock and bam i went off and took the dock without thinking about how to do it. Just don't overthink shit as much and stuff will probally start to get easier.

Rodriguez Brothers Family Reunion Boogie Roll Call
TaylorC replied to Antigua's topic in Events & Places to Jump
that would be me To far away of a boogie for me to travel to though -
watch stores work nicely as well
-
i got some gear shipped fedex and i got no duties with a declared value of 1200 once as well
-
yeah you can order from USA to canada. You pay duties on whatever the items value is declared as. Little trick to not pay duties is just to declare it under 50 dollars on the shippers side when they ship it but the downside to doing this is if it gets lost you can only declare 50 bucks on the shipping insurance but if you have house insurance they will cover it anyways. Duties is equal to GST/PST i belive

backflying 101 is supposed to be really good and i belive they came out with a sitflying one recently as well
-
um depends on if i am working on canopy stuff as well. Normal Freefly jump break 4.5 wave at 3500. If i want to work on canopy stuff a bit as well will break at 6K and dump at 5K since i can't do high altitude hop and pops at my home dz

After having had the expierence of using it first hand this weekend i must say i am really suprised at how effective it really is. I did watch the videos and saw it there but until you actually use it you really don't know how effective it really is. People who told me you would have problems using it if you were spinning on your back were definetly proven wrong here. Worked perfectly fine on my back evne though i had mild line twists on my reserve when it came out but i believe that was from the line twists i cut away and with me still spinning during the cutaway. Can't wait till Wings get this on there rigs so i can get it when i buy a new Wings Thanks riggerrob for the reserve save as well PS this isn't one of those ZOMG everyone needs to get a skyhook type thread

Dusty Smith will be at the Abby boogie
