  2. I have a Oxygn A3, and had a Factory diver before that, and they have never fogged up on me. I took the lens off my factory diver and used goggles with it for quite a while before i got a A3. Some dream of flying, i live the dream...
  3. Definately the PETA one Some dream of flying, i live the dream...
  4. What about jumping naked? (except for a rig, alti and goggles of course) Some dream of flying, i live the dream...
  5. Stuff the nose deep in, (i never roll them) and just quarter the slider properly. If you quarter the slider right, then its the first thing that catches air, and slow the openings down a hell of a lot. But dont take my word for it, its just how i do it. I have also found that rolling the nose on semi elliptical, and especially on eliptical canopies, can cause line twists quite easily, and off heading openings. If psycho pack takes a few minutes longer but works, then use it, it wont be long before it takes you just as long to psycho pack as opposed to how you are packing now Some dream of flying, i live the dream...
  6. Tom Petty Freefalling is my favourite skydiving song, but each to their own. --------------------------------------------- Once you have tasted the dream of flight, you will forever walk with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return. - Leonardo Da Vinci Some dream of flying, i live the dream...
  7. I am buying it with the idea of wingsuit flying, so i would like a canopy that opens with the need of immediate attention, like is common with elipticals I meant WITHOUT the need of immediate attention Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

  9. What reserve is in the rig? The 150 main/128 reserve combo (Atom 00) seems to be very popular, but may not be the smartest idea The Atom is made in standard harness sizes, L1 - L4, with L1 being the smallest. Atom have reversed risers, if you're not used to thes they may look funny Its a Techno 140 reserve Some dream of flying, i live the dream...
  10. Ive been looking at a Elektra 150 main (parachutes de france) but dont know anything about them. Anybody got any comments? Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

  13. I am thinking of buying a Atom Legend with a Elektra 150 main, but i do not know the harness or the main. Does anybody have any comments on them? Good or bad i need to know what they are like. I have only ever jumped javelins Some dream of flying, i live the dream...
