  1. Whenever I jump with gloves, I generally use the Mechanix gloves (the ones in autozone) They're thin enough that I can still feel thru them, yet have what I believe is a leather palm. Then I moved to Florida... no need for them here!

  2. Hopefully though, they caught it and handed it off to the rigger once they noticed the reserve container starting to come out... as that could be a bad day in the making!

  3. The way I understood it, steering line disconnected at the fingertrap and left the toggle with a bit of line that wasn't connected to it.

  4. I think the Apple interface is working just fine... My phone keeps trying to auto correct me when I type it wrong. "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  5. The SAME guy that didn't know he had to capitalize the language English? "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  6. The bottom, toggle side was stitched, but the top was not.... Yeah, sounds like they just didn't stitch it, luckily when theres tension fingertraps tend to hold... but when there is not tension on it, it will come right out. Ya lucked out on that one man... could've been bad to have that come off on final.

  7. Stitching on the fingertraps, make sure that the line is in good condition (not fraying or otherwise damaged), depending how the toggle is attached, check the knot holding the fingertrap (pd method) or the knot at the end of the figure 8's. Make sure the fingertraps are within the knot and stitching as well. What do you mean you got one of the toggles with the lower brake line in your hand?

  8. I'd MUCH rather have a line over than a nut under! "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  9. I've packed a few reserves, and never had one that I could lift the container up while extracting the freebag. Generally they will fall out if you pull it while standing up... I will be packing a tight Mirage friday, I'll check to see the extraction forces with the main still packed (simulating a total) "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message

  13. Airtwardo actually gave his ribs to form Adam and Eve, then had sex with Eve while Adam was utilizing the wood line and that's where Chuck Norris came from.

  15. Easiest way is to let your steering lines get infront of your nose. May not give you a line over every time, but it will eventually, or maybe it will every time. Ask your instructor/rigger to show you while packing the proper way to pack to minimize the risk of that.
