  5. Hello,

    I'm a newbie to the sport. Which of these two helmets (hurricane vs bonehead midwarp) is more comfortable and a better buy. I have to order these through my dropzone as they didn't have the sizing in stock.

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions or comments.

  7. Hi all,

    Newbie here…..so pardon my ignorance for making this comment.
    I was checking out some skydiving helmets at a local shop, and I noticed they’re over priced and offer very little real life protection when comparing to helmets made for their respective sports.

    For example, I looked at Bonehead composite helmet that sells for $200+. The shell and lining of the Bonehead is thin as can be. I’m sorry! I can't see how a helmet like that will protect someone from a serious knock to the head.

    This bonehead helmet can NOT hold a candle next to my SNELL rated ski helmet at less than half that cost. What's up with that? Why do skydiver even put up buying a inferior helmets like that? Are they really buying it for looks or for protection?

  11. Hi everyone,

    Newbie here! I have a pre-existing dislocated left shoulder that can sublux if place in extreme position.

    I have had 4 AFF jumps without a problem. I've been told to hit the wind tunnel to work on my 90 degree turns before proceeding to my next jump.

    While at the wind tunnel, I saw a warning sign saying those with dislocated shoulders should not enter the wind tunnel.

    Any advice or suggestion?
