Non USPA rated TI taking out students
stayhigh replied to skygypsie's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
What about those who has USPA rating but expired UPT rating??????? There is hundreds of them people. Bernie Sanders for President 2016 -
I agree with this dude above, and also There is no one wing for all flying sites, some may require smaller wing, some may require big wing. Even on the same exact site, some windy days you'll want very small wing vs some days you'll want something in mini-wing category stuff. Skydiving wing will totally work, it is harder to kite, it takes longer runway to start, and will require quite steep hill. And this hill needs to be STEEP. If you can run/walk up and down rather easy it is probably not steep enough, if the hill looks so steep that it will require 100% commitment with your wing over your head is probably steep enough. and let's not waste time for something less than 500-600 ft hill. Make sure your Go-Pro is on Bernie Sanders for President 2016

I think it is more convenient vs being safe. Their arm swimming will fuck your exit up more than your one arm being useless. and the Student can't take photo or video for shit. I much rather wear a gopro for better shot and quality but I had this one customer who insisted on taking his own shot. Thru his first freefall he didn't do shit, the camera was aiming some random stuff the whole time. I took the money for the video regardless, "Thinking you are a fucking retard, have fun with shaky footage, thanks for 30 dollars." Bernie Sanders for President 2016

Non USPA rated TI taking out students
stayhigh replied to skygypsie's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
if the Ti is reckless and dangerous to others yeah, report that guy. if the guy is safe and does the job well, why stir up the pot?? Bernie Sanders for President 2016 -

Comparission of cross-braced canopies
stayhigh replied to markussprenger's topic in Gear and Rigging
Many people at that stage will do whatever they feel comfortable. at OP jump number close to 2000 jumps. OP should know what the fuck OP wants. Go ahead and jump Velo 120 and tell me how that goes. I know they sell em, but I haven't seen anyone that fly it. I went from Katana 120 to velo 90 in one step, hell I go from flying 370 to 90 in one jump to the next. Bernie Sanders for President 2016 -

I'm pretty sure you can handle 103 ish size. 120 is quite big. Bernie Sanders for President 2016 -
There will be a market if someone design a pole that extend and retract with a push of a button. Like a small police baton. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

Can you attach your picture of this M5 button head set up?? where do you buy these?? home depot? Bernie Sanders for President 2016 -
Horrible policy, Who compensate you for missed out tandem jump or camera jump??? Who compensates you for used pack job and used line set?? Bernie Sanders for President 2016

I remember Skyventure paying me for the tunnel instructor training and travel and other expenses. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

So the guy with 1000 jumps gets "coaching" from some well known flyer, is that not a "coach" jump??? If you get paid, that's coach jump. If you don't get paid, that was a waste of time or fun jump. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
-
Once you get paid by your student, that was a Coach jump, Once you get free slot by the dropzone, that was a LO jump. You get nothing and you pay for your own slot that was a Fun jump. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

Never heard of this..... I tell my student to extend legs all the way out arms slightly back to track out of the spin. I see them spinning even faster once they ball up.. are we talking about Aff student??? or some sorta freefly student??? Even if they are learning how to backfly and once they get into spin last thing they wanna do is ball up.. I've heard balling up option for a wingsuiters. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

Ia that the myth that bridal will have enough extraction force to get the freebag out??? I've heard someone saying bridal has enough drag to get freebag out and I'm skeptical. Bernie Sanders for President 2016 -
I see this time to time, i tell people to get a quality suit and they end up buying something shitty like you mention, bev, tony, deepseed. Yeah, bev and tony makes excellent bellysuit and wing suit but they suck ass at making freefly suit. and LS is not that expensive compare to something like Tonfly. I got my LS for less than 600 bucks, I've got my Vertical for less than 600 bucks, just don't add any fancy design and they are affforable. Fucking Armani suit that doesn't do shit costs 5000+. If you stick around longer you'll find out, that you've just wasted your money on something sub par and now you are gonna spend more money since you've thrown away your money on something fucking cheap. If you wanna go cheap??? buy that standard freefly suit from Square One. Only to find out they are only good as tandem suit. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

They as in Skyventure talked about building that Autin tunnel atleast 5-6 years ago. Yeah,once the ground has been officially broken and once the motor gets delivered it takes less than 6 month. I'll never believe until I see the ground being broken into. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

No tunnel decent will be built and ready to go by 2014. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

MX with V306 bag. Fits perfect. with something 120 to vx84, velo 90. Bernie Sanders for President 2016 -
Any x-braced bigger than 120 must feel like tandem canopy?? Haven't flown anything bigger than 99 but 99 felt too big at 2.1 wingloading. and not that many people will call Xaos has negative recovery arc..... i think they fly flat as they can be. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
-
People think that it is hard to run with students legs being off the ground but canopy will carry most of the weight. I would take couple steps myself and tell the student to put the feet on the ground. I try to land 100% on my feet with or without wind, student weighing under 249 lbs.

if you are just doing hop and pops you can also lengthen your closing loop. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
