Inspired by a previous post by Jeji Some of the mistakes I made during the first couple of months at the DZ Hire kit and manifesting - During my consols - i was manifesting like it was going out of fashion, just getting more and more kit out of the kit store. Seems the procedure is to wait for that piece of kit to be packed and ready before hiring out more kit and manifesting. Ooops. Don't touch the hire kit - During a flight line check on one of my consols, one of the instructors casually mentioned that at some point "You'll need to do this yourself" referring to CYPRES and reserve pins. So next time i get kit out and I notice the CYPRES on, i decide to turn it off, then on - thus making sure it's not going to turn off mid jump. Hooo Harrr did i get my balls roasted. Seems I took the instructor a little too literally and hire kit (having been packed and signed for by a packer) don't get touched by students! You check your own CYPRES and reserve pins on YOUR OWN RIG. Dark goggles - for Pre-FS1, novice skydivers. Down to the CCI I guess, but ours dont like 'em. He said that there's a vogue for these things but made some good points. When in the aicraft, he cant see your eyes, he doesn't know where you're looking or if you're paying attention to him during the flight. I said that it's sunny, he said that you're falling towards something that's dark! Also, some WARP/SkyU coaches want you to wear clear goggles so that there is good eye contact during the freefall. Oh yeah, buy lots of beer. --- If you have to ask, you don't understand

I just had a great week in Spain - where the surrounding coastline makes it easier to spot an off heading opening... and i'm new to all this too - so i'm just glad the bugger opens My question - it seems I get a 45-90 degree right hand turn on opening. I have tried to keep my packing consistent. I tried using the 'other' mouth lock first. This appeared to fix it - then it didnt What am I doing wrong? I have a reasonably new PD170 (50 jumps) I propack, I dont roll the nose, just shove it in and roll the tail about 4 times. TIA Phil --- If you have to ask, you don't understand

There was a guy a couple of weeks ago did a tandem. He was wheelchair bound (dont know the specifics) He was one of these dreadlocked, bearded, baggy pants dudes... But the funniest thing was that when he landed, all his mates came 'airside' and started lighting up spliffs !!!!! The CCI siad he didnt have a problem with it, and i think he was more concerned with the 300+ foot canpopy still above their heads... If you have to ask, you don't understand
