    Similar video here, Cypres, non-"speed" version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLqaMGIqWe4 Questions: 1. Cypres fires above 78 mph (125 km/h) vertical speed (taken from the manual). He seems to be going slower. Thoughts? 2. Cypres does not activate below 130 feet AGL (40 meters) (taken from the manual). The reserve PC emerged lower than that. Comments? I know there is always a possiblity of too long reserve loop getting trappend between the groomets and delaying the PC launch, or the unit miscalibrated unit (to a different landing elevation). But still, what do you think?

    No the cutter is below on the wings This is what I meant. Cutter below the freebag.

    In Poland we use a piece of paper with rigger's stamp and signautre, instead of a lead seal. That would squeeze thru the grommet easily .

    She said she would do it head-down, which implied no wingsuit. I don't think that has has been done without a wingsuit AND with one airplane only.

    Do you use elastic bands on your legstraps? Putting them close to the metal adapters helps sometimes.

    Spectre is slightly tapered.

    What about some of the main/reserve entanglement videos we've seen online? There are a handful of them out there where the PC and freebag are launched into a malfunctioning main, and the only reason the reserve ever gets out it becasue of the ease of extraction. Like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpOCsQCKi7I

    My Infinity has a cutaway pillow, which has a stiff insert (the whole flat part that touches the main lift web and more). Next to impossible to have it 'fold under'.

    forgot about that one. Yes. A fatality in Poland where the jumper wore Argus. The above link directs you to photos from Polish government report and the unofficial translation of key findings.

    Also, check if your 3-rings are manufactured correctly in the first place. Below links are from the 3-ring inventor, as well: http://www.unitedparachutetechnologies.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=41 and http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=124164
