    Watch, later on you'll even lose your new skydiving friends because they started to go jump at different dz. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    Dude, I'm not joking. So far I have 150 dollar worth of pack job not being paid due to Injury and fatality. It really sucks when you go home and think that "What if I didn't make that 5 min call for the guy??" I felt bad for couple times but now I just get pissed. You fucking didn't pay me, and You also slowed down the dz so my other cutomer won't jump for the day or atleast slow down for the moment when the ambulence is out at the landing area. and probably skygods tend to be late on payment. and what if this packer worked on his second or third day of "I'll pay you tommrow when I collect enough tips."

    still that is alot easier then, following the main down and hoping that someone saw your freebag. if it stays together 80-90 percent of the time, means after 100 cutaways, you've only lost about 20 freebags vs without skyhook, you probably lost about 80 to 90 freebags.

    Also sounds like this patrick guy owes money to that packer. Imagine working your ass off all day and not get paid. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    My friend joke about his superier skyhook system all the time. " I can work with my linetwist untill 500 ft." And " If someone hits my canopy while I'm at crosswind leg, I'll chop that shit right away." Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    But skyhook has one advantage at time of cutaway. Everything stays together and you only have to chase one thing. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    If you encounter a situation where skyhook is absolutly needed, then you made some series of bad choice. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    Pellet gun?

    stayhigh replied to steve1's topic in Speakers Corner

    Your grouping probaly sucks due to the scope mount actually moving backwards on the rail. Also air rifle will shake the scope so much that cheap 20 dollar scope won't stay zeroed in. Anyways good or bad rifle, they are not good for anything past 40 meter or so. Pellet being so light killing anything beyond that will require pure luck. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    Me " why did you pick up that specter?" newbie " i ve heard that it packs the easiest, and opens nice." At this point im thinking the person is retarded. No, not all 7 cell are easy to pack, in fact i find specter and storm hardest canopy to pack, and they don't open nice, compare to what is out there. And surely enough the other guy who sold it to the guy is enoying something 9 cell, thinking " hell yeah, i got rid of that spectre." Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    is there any reason why it happens mostly on 190-210 ish canopy, with jumper having less than 200 jumps??? Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    the krappy suits??? you get what you pay for. imo jumpsuit is the cheapest thing for skydiving. measured for you and you only. Armani blazer costs 2000 bucks. and they don't fly. but they do get chicks Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    I've seen two busting out iphone in freefalll. Once i got to the ground i asked what happens if you lose it??? They simply replied "ill just buy a new one." Came out very shaky, not usuable, but their self portrait under canopy was cool. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    Actually the guy was at 2.2 at the time. Now 2.5 jumping 84 Russian roullete has nothing to do with skill but just luck. Friend of mine just got ready to jump something at 2.0 wl and this guy has less than 250 jumps. Jump number doesn't mean shit. It is all based on piloting skill. Average jumper will need somewhere around 1000 jumps to feel comfy under 2.1. Wingload. Some may take less, some will never get there. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    I'm glad that you don't have any issue with that coblat. When I jumped that same coblat it opened like this everytime. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QA5BWTutbQ0 I wonder what causes such drastic change in opening sequence from person to person on the same canopy. I think i have decent body position and have good packing skill. Brass grommet catching the lines might have something to do with bad openings. I highly suggest getting a Katana or x-fire for you. Alot better opening and has way more bottom flair power IMO. after jumping that coblat I never ever complain about hard or bad opening, nothing can and will open shitty as that particular one.

    I still don't think that it was low wing loaded x-fire that causeed the problem. Even vengence with airlock or velo loaded 2+ will drop 20 30 feet when it is hit with right amount of canopy wake at right timimng. She just happened to be at wrong place at wrong time not because of x-fire's closed nose. My x-fire 169 folded in half when my friend flew right thru the dust devil around 20 30 feet over the ground and he was loading it at 1.1 and luckly canopy re inflated in time to have enough flair. It made a loud whiping noise. There was a video of this and we all concluded that it was pilot's fault for flying it staight into the middle of dust devil. Turbulant air will cause even the solid fixed wing to lose lift. And you have nylon over your head. Best thing to do in this situation is to advoid. Advoid flying behind big canopy and when you see large dust devil everywhere, it is time to take a break for few hours and wait for the air to cool off Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    if you bought it thru credit card, you need to call your credit card company and contact fraud department. that company is notorious for not contacting their customers. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    How does safire keep more internal pressure vs crossfire??? Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  22. stayhigh
    Do you think she would've done better flying slower safire thru the canopy wake???? I've seen even 2.0+ wing loaded velo fold in half due to canopy wake. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    Small three year old can fly at 60 mph in the tunnel. So you'll need to put the kid some weight belt. About 35 - 45lbs should be sufficiant. Bernie Sanders for President 2016

    I think HMA lines are what makes opening better and on heading. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
