Smallish Canopy for Beginner
ladydyver replied to FlyinBrian87's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
lots and lots of thread about this similar topic. things to consider: can you land your current canopy down wind, cross wind, in a tight spot? Read Bill Von's Checklist ----When the shit hits the fan.... and it will eventually as it does to everyone..... which will be better for your experience level (at 25 jumps) ...wing loading of 1.2 or wingloading of 1.05? I am lightly loaded and had a funky landing this season...was out for the season because of it and have some nice new grafts in my knee to show for it. My wingloading was barely 1:1.....and at the time I was very current and had about 100 jumps on that canopy. Sometimes things happen, you make a choice and they aren't the right ones and you get hurt - which canopy will better protect you from a bad injury vs. a more serious injury vs. fatality? Canopy control courses are very helpful and can teach you a lot about your canopy - I also took it through Deland. You could get a lot out of a 190/188 and learn a lot about canopy control and about jumping while being safer under a little bit bigger canopy. Ultimately, you will do what you want to do......but listen to those who know you, who have seen you fly, know about your skill level ect. There is a lot to consider with canopy flight... and you are lucky to have more knowledge than the average joe with your pilot history. the other thing to think about is with a different canopy type you will probably get a lot more out of it --- lots of people recommend sabre 2, pilots, spectres, and triathlons. I have had a spectre which I liked but had trouble figuring out the landings...and then switched to a pilot ---love it. demo what you can so that you can get what you really like and can see the pro's and cons of each canopy. Welcome to the sport and good luck!

ROFLMAO! I love Doc! He's great! Yeah, I missed the first load after that night. Stupid. We're working out the details for another mini invasion in the spring so I'll have do overs. I will keep you posted on dates that will work....but the bonfire was awfully fun so we will have to repeat that offense DPH # 2 "I am not sure what you are suppose to do with that, but I don't think it is suppose to flop around like that." ~Skootz~ I have a strong regard for the rules.......doc!

thats good because i actually would want to be able to jump the next morning where at the mini invasion i couldn't jump so the alcohol was free flowing. I told Dave, that damn trailer, every time i sleep in there it gives me a headache. he said ... sorry darling, there are no refunds!

I hear you have a room for me to take over i don't know though...the last time we hung out i awoke with a terrible headache. i am sure it was just from sleeping in that trailer we bought from livendive. seems every time we sleep there we wake up with a headache.....what is up with that?

It really depends on what you want to do when you are jumping....and if you want to do demo's, be an instructor ect. ect. ect. I just got my C. don't know that I will get my D; it will be dependant on what I think about doing night jumps. I have a long time to work on it so I am not too worried about it right now. I just want to be able to get in the air and enjoy every minute of it.

congrats on your new home....doc and I will have to visit when we come south ----see what kind of turmoil we can add to the mix DPH # 2 "I am not sure what you are suppose to do with that, but I don't think it is suppose to flop around like that." ~Skootz~ I have a strong regard for the rules.......doc!

maybe what we need is another good thread about boobies....they are what makes the world go round after all Boobies.... hmmm here's a nice pair! NSFW!!

I was out at the DZ yesterday and it was gorgeous...warm isn't what was needed, a simple pilot, some jumpers, and the 182 would have done just fine. Then again, I was ready for a break...I stayed home Friday and Saturday for the first time since March, and I gotta admit sleeping in, mimosas, red beers, and actually getting some non-skydiving stuff taken care of was a nice change of pace. Blues, Dave yeah, I know that you and muttley needed the break ---actually all of the worker bee's did.....I wouldn't have been jumping anyway as I have been sick but ---- the skies sure have been beautiful here this week. Maybe there will be some nice days in november to break out the 182.

well..not sure as of yet as it must be appropriate as I have my kids this year for a change. My daughter is going as a fairy and my son as a jedi.

:: I am in the same boat as most...nothing ... nothing ....nothing. We are now closed for the winter but sat would have beautiful to take the 182 up - clear blue skies...60 degrees...light wind.

I don't know if I'll have the $$$ for the tunnel time...but I'll try. Shame I won't get to meet some of you guys, but maybe next time? we hit elsinore 3-4 times a year so keep us posted on when you are going...you never know where we will turn up. We will be down there in november, maybe in march or april and then I will do a solo trip in may when doc is on his boy's trip unless someone talks me into going somewhere else....you just never know.

since when did I get nominated for the list? Have yo been scheming with doc again That would imply we ever stopped scheming... Let's just say any suspicions I had of your worthiness to be nominated were eliminated at LP.
