  1. Is the manufacturer's recommended max weight limit designed to say that the canopy gives the best performance at that specific weight loading for your experience? Or is it for "legal reasons" so they dont get sued if the canopy malfunctions due to too much wing loading? Blue Skies, Omar A-39113

  11. Prost, Well i wont exceed maufacturers specifications, because i am not going to risk my life by overloading a canopy beyong what is reccomended. If you wana to load over 2, why dont you fly those high eliptical canopies that perform better at high wing loadings Blue Skies, Omar A-39113
  12. From what I have heard, Sabre2 are not to be loaded more than 1.6 Blue Skies, Omar A-39113

  16. I am about to receive my sabre2 in 2 weeks, what packing technique would you recommend. This will be my first canopy. Blue Skies, Omar A-39113
  17. I have seen pictures of people jumping with sunglasses. Has anyone jumped with them and how do you keep them from flying off? Doesnt the air get in there and becomes uncomfortable for the eyes to be open?
  18. I am about to receive my first one, within 3 weeks...im counting down the days.... omar a-39113
  19. the guy that drives 2 hours to come over here, is not a skygod. me and him basically both got our A licenses at the same time bout 6 weeks ago.
  20. ummm i said Lake Wales not Naples. Anyways I've heard alot of bad things about Naples. In fact, there is a frequent jumper at my DZ that lives in Naples but drives 2 hours, because he doesnt like Naples DZ.
  21. anyone going saturday? i would like to jump with some people over there, since ill be doing my water training there, and after that i gotta drive back to miami. omar A-39113
  22. My suggestion is the Odyssey by sunpath. I have only jumped it once as a demo, but when i was in my sit, i had to check if the rig was still on my back cuz thats how comfortable it is. Only 6 more days till it comes in!!! Now 2 more weeks after my container comes in, my canopies Sabre2-150 and PD143R comes in!! YAY!! Omar A-39113
  23. i wanna do a balloon jump one day. I cant wait, maybe soon, one day ill get to
  24. ever since my first jump, i have 52 now, i have been wondering why is it that you dont feel like youre falling while in freefall? omar a-39113
  25. Whos going to the Florida Keys (Marathon) Boogie? Does anyone know the minimum jumps required to attend due to the small landing area and the proximity to water? I heard a B is required.
