  1. Main: Crossfire 2 99 ft² (1.57 lbs/ft²) @ 350 jumps - lol - Is it possible to give this person advice that he will listen to
  2. +1 Pulse is a mega canopy, didnt find the landing to lack any power in anyway whatsoever Get one - you will love it
  3. Used a Smart 99 @ 2, opened, flew and landed fine
  4. Quote Do you personally think someone with lets say 100-150 jumps is really qualified to coach a new skydiver? No, not even close
  5. Katana @ 1.5 @ 200 jumps in 3 Years = Pain
  6. Also voted for a predictable landing pattern Making up your mind at 1K is complete bullshit - end of story Jumpmasters / load organisers reminding the load of what the landing pattern is at loading time is a good idea
  7. [reply "The main problem with round canopies is reliability. Rounds malfunction a very high percentage of the time." (section 6.25, page 235) This is not correct
  8. Looks like a fucken owl
  9. Nice review and some clever stuff ... but fuck it looks odd .. not for me
  10. Source: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/scotland/10335003.stm Granny deserves the 5 years, its a well known law .. there is no way she didnt
  11. at a WL@1.8 (almost) a suitable canopy for someone with less than 300 jumps!? ..No
  12. The milky white liquid has possibly come from the engine breather ...check your manual to confirm what pipe that is .. oil / condensation tends to build up in the breather pipe and because it can be a bit sludgy it can block up ... with you taking the bike on a long run the heat might have made it fluid again ... It defo sounds like the engine is flooded ... if it turns over ( cranks ) ... switch the fuel off ... open the throttle fully and try to start it ... i find this is a pretty good way of clearing it ... as an other poster said ... if it dosnt crank ... pull the plugs and spin it with them out ... if you find that the carbs are constantly drawing fuel as the bike sits without the engine running .... try tapping the side of the carbs with the handle of a screw driver ... its often the floats sticking that can cause this problem .... Hope this helps
  13. What do you do that's so unusual (and why do you choose to do it that way)? Why is it so easy to pop the pin just by lifting the flap? +1 Am real interested in seeing how you route the bridle ... what advantages does it give you the way that you currently route it ?
  14. C'mon Brian - lets have your input here ...
  15. Did you try a Pulse 190.. Flat Glide and recovers quickly also a closer match to your skill level / jump numbers
  16. Should have punched the fucker in the face, few times and go jump somewhere else. Only really good friends can call you an idiot. +1 Punch that bitch the fuck out
  17. It would be a dumb fuck thing to do !
