  1. Similar tuck tab problem addressed below: www.flyaerodyne.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/SB140111.pdf
  2. That was a second main, not a reserve. He had three parachutes in total.
  3. Intentional malfunction. During airshow. Jumper has three parachutes in total. Performed by US Golden Knights.
  4. The ones made after 2001 had reinforcements. Production ended 2003, I believe.
  5. (I am taking about both computer view and mobile view): It used to be that whenever the paid ad was (paid again) and renewed, it was bumbed to the top (in all Forum views, like here: https://www.dropzone.com/forums/ , and deeper (meaning inside all individual Forums, and also when reading any individual post). Talking about "Featured Ads" section in all these views. The ad is not bumped to the top anymore, when it is paid and renewed. Can you please make it go to the top (like it used to be)?
  6. Yes, the first canopy was deployed from the bucket:
  7. Watch here: https://youtu.be/Ea4gPC0dAUw?t=927
  8. @carrier louis paul Your videos show the manual activation of the reserve. The French Bulletin talks about the cutter relocation. Can you explain the connection between the two?
  9. @carrier louis paul: what was this additional small part that fell out from the rig (in one of your previous videos linked below)?: https://www.dropzone.com/forums/topic/272799-icon-total-malfunction/?do=findComment&comment=4949785
  10. It is the altitude where a significant slow down happened (think of it as middle of canopy opening process). I was able to trick my L&B Viso II+ with a very moderate wingsuit flight flatening (it was registered as canopy opening).
  11. What exactly was a problem? What is 'acid mesh' ?
  12. I jump: Pilot 168, with Dacron lines, and (larger) slider from Pilot 230 with brass slider grommets. 800 jumps, one extremely fast opening (lasted half a second), but the force was not transmitted brutally to me! I was amazed, did not feel any pain or even discomfort. I contribute this to stretchy Dacron.
  13. There is NOT a double RSL in this video. The reserve deployed THRU two risers (two risers from the same same side of the rig). .
