Isn't the activation altitude 1000 ft (but when on belly due to the back burble this 1000 ft roughly translate to 750 ft)? Something like if you’re doing sit or head down or you’ve just been stood up by the snivel of the opening and still have vertical speed in the range of firing it will fire at 1000 ft and not 750 because the burble is no longer there.

Hi Guys, Been doing tracking jumps and I want to use flour smoke bomb. I am aware of one setup, the one where you put the flour in women pentihose that you attach to your ankle. Do you know any other setups, that possible could work better than this one? Regards, Jean-Arthur Deda. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

mdrejhon, I see you put a lot of energy into new commers. Good! It's good to see that! ... So, do you coach for free as well? It would be cool if you pay for the student jumps when you coach me Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

Hey Guys, I'm really considering using Gábor method. If anyone with experience can make a critique for Gábor method, so that I would have a glimpse of what I'm getting myself into it, it would be really appreciated. I'm worried that while the method works fine for Gábor (who has a lot of experience) it might not be suitable for a noob like myself. I mean, would it be more easily to fuck up and get a line over with this method? Regards, Jean-Arthur Deda. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

ping more than a year of pending for the new PDOptimum. What can possibly explain this situation? As long as it makes sense and it's probable, feel free to speculate. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

> time slows down I'm doing speedish 40 km/h downhill longboard on bamboo bords. A couple of times I've felt the same in downhill longboard. Spoke about it with different people and apparently that's the flow effect. From the words of Ayrton Senna: In my longboard progression I've used the rush avoidance at all costs and it worked really nice. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

Not sure where to put this one. It's mostly for swoopers. I have friends that have "begin" swooping (directly to 90 degree turns) and live under the impression that the groundrush is normal thing. I feel that groundrush, or just the fact that something is rushing at you translates to out-of-confort-zone/un-familiar speeds and I tend to stay away from it. Do you swoopers still get the ground rush? I'm looking into extending a bit the no wind/light downwind landings feel, but not swooping (90+ turns) per se and I'm considering using the "avoid the ground rush" as personal limit. Cons or advices? Regards, Jean-Arthur Deda. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

I've really liked the old format of www.skydivingmovies.com. If someone wants to make a site exactly like the old one (simple, clear, focused on material and not so much on the cool interface) please do it because I'm searching for one like that

I'm just going to put this out there and see how it compares with other people experience. To me it seems that S2 characteristics (open, fly and landing) are less affected by out of trim. For instance, I had a Spectre that was out of trim (8 cm difference between the outer A4 lines) and was opening in a stall and had a small build it turn. A friend of mine has a higher difference between the A5 lines on a S2-150 and it seems to work fine. Any thoughts? And another thing that me, personally, I would be interested to know is: how sensitive is S2 to turbulence, compared with the other canopies from the same class (Safire, Safire2, Sabre1)?

Hey Bro, I use active ankle for 1 year after my unpleasent landing. http://www.activeankle.com/ The mind will clear with more jumps or tunnel or kite (traction kite). See you on flip side! Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

Thanks for this info. I know more

> Because if bureaucrats are the cause of this (monster) delay than this case alone speaks volumes on their influence on skydiving as a a sport. I think that us (the clients who want this product) are at the merci of an idiot in a high position who shouldn't be there. I've order an Optimum 196 since April 2009. I find that PD is being transparent from their end but from there up there's only speculations = no real information (check the words that I've underlined from PD website). FAA should explain why it takes them so much time to approve this. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

Just wondering what your preferred method for getting more lift in sit? - popping the hip. Is like getting flatter on an axis oriented at 45 degree or better is like moving a bit from a neutral sit position to something that looks from the side like this "/". I find this method verry efficient but harder to do. - pointing your legs outside. Moving your legs from a parallel position like "| |" to something like this "/ \". - anything else?
