i've been very happy with all the vaginas i've had in my life!

I didn't realize they forced you to get on the plane and make the jump. I'd be pissed too if someone did that to me. Ian So Ian we are supposed to use our psychic ability and predict that someone is going to set a downwind landing pattern in a 15mph wind before we get onto the plane?? no, but if it happens regularly, maybe the DZO should look into it!? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

Still should be replaced. IMO using seal thread to tack the toggles to the risers because the velcro is worn out is shotty rigging. Furthermore I'd be shocked if a 1-2 pass of seal thread would make it that hard of a pull to unstow, makes me wonder what they tacked it with? I've seen at least a couple Strong Dual Hawks that had the reserve toggles on one side misstowed and it would make for a very hard pull. wait-wait-wait! the velcro was that strong that i could only release one side at first and then had to pump REALLY hard on the other. i'm not the worlds strongest guy, but i wouldnt call myself weak nonetheless. again, i was under the impression it wasnt tacked when i've had my first cutaway, and i BET i would of noticed if my rigger did when he repacked. i was asking questions on pretty much EVERYTHING he did. i've seen and was explained about freestows as well on that session; didnt even knew they existed before that. was probably the most educational hour i've spent talking about gear and reserves specifically. -

Nope, not on most sport rigs, but some riggers out there may put a pass of seal thread (~4.75lb break) thru the toggle and riser. It's pretty common on bailout rigs and older rigs though. (lots with rounds as reserves) interesting, thanks. that would be to avoid a toggle-fire then, right!? Not necessarily, your V3 should have nice strong velcro on the risers/toggles still. If it's getting worn out to the point you're risking a fire, it should be replaced before it get's repacked. it is actually that strong that at first i was only able to release one side on my first attempt. not as funny as it sounds when you just cutaway from a spinning main from hell that left you dizzy just seconds before! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

No, I am passing on knowledge from a mistake I made. The more you post, the less credible you become. right, says the guy with 300 jumps and a 120 katana.. need i say more!? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

Recently saw a newly qualified jumper take a bit of a rough landing, get dragged a little and have the harness MLW pull across his chest and rip his nipple bar right out. He was wearing a t-shirt and jumpsuit. To the OP, I'd wear the plaster (uk speak for band aid) if you're worried. wow, you have totally scared me. It never occured to me that could happen. maybe i'll put a band aid on. i say maybe because, who am i kidding, i will never remember. i guess you WILL remember if it gets hung up on opening.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

they work just fine if you know your angle.. but as usual DocPop, you're only re-urgitating stuff you've READ..

Dude, the 4th clicky has 'pussy-portraits' in the text of the link. Did you think he was posting pictures of cats? dude, i'm a DOG's-person; i fuck pussies! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

If you are concerned can't you just take it out for the jump? I wouldn't suggest it if they've only been done a month. Healing time is a few months for those IIRC (I don't have them done myself). They may not go back in well if you take them out yourself. Most jumpers I know with them dont worry about them for normal jumps. But I know for naked jumps they'll use larger bandaids to prevent problems, so if you're concerned I'd take that route too. healing time for nipples is about six months, personally, for jumping i'd prefer a bit longer, say a year!?
