  2. Material: F-111 Diameter: 30-inch Bridle length: 9 feet (from pin to pilotchute)
  3. I had Altimaster V for 1000 jumps, worked very good.
  4. Do a reboot (using a paper clip) ---- refer to Quattro manual and Quattro roadmap.
  5. Quick cheap fix is to re-sew the BOC pouch for the left hand deployment. Any rigger can do it. That assumes, that your left hand is better then your right hand. Another option is to re-sew the BOC pouch to ROL (Rear Of Leg). ROL is not compatibile with Freeflying or Wingsuiting, but was popular in the 80s. Also, see the physical therapist for exercises to increase your hand mobility.
  6. The riser can also also fail 'totally' when the white loops breaks for whatever reason. Rigs using Collins Lanyard, as far as I am concerned: SWS Fire Javelin Icon Vector Infinity .
  7. Just stay away from 'zero stows' bag:
  8. Tandem lines are also longer that solo lines. More length = more opportunity to tangle-up, I am guessing.
  9. I was wondering why tension knots on the tandem reserves are far more common than on sport (solo) reserves. I recall reading about approx 10 tandem reserve tension knots cases, and only about one sport reserve tension knot case. What is the reason for that, considering that (worldwide) there are more sport reserve rides, then tandem reserve rides. Does it have anything to do with the fact that tandem reserves are mostly lined with Dacron, as opposed to sport reserve mostly lined with Microline ? .
  10. Looks like attachments to posts disappeared (after the 2020 website upgrade). You can easily verify it by looking at 2000-2019 posts.
  11. Just add the padding to the shoulders' areas in your jumpsuit. Like small "pillows" on the shoulders. At least one manufacturer has that option when ordering brand new, but you can add it to yours for sure.
  12. Feniks container (AirPol Polish company): Smart Loop MARD Firebird: S.A.F.E this MARD: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QSqaEQ2oig
  13. I ordered brand new Pilot 168 with Darcon lines, and indicated on the order form that I want slider from Pilot 230. So, this was my responsibility, they had my wish on paper. The effect is GREAT! Veeery slow opening, love it!
  14. I jump Pilot 168, with Dacron lines, and a larger slider (from Pilot 230). Veeeery soft openings.
  15. Afeter playing with zooming in and out, the Menu options dissapear (for good, no matter what the zoom percentage is). See attached, taken from a computer.
  16. Last 'Cypres 1" was built in 2003. So, its life ended in 2015. This is 5 years ago, not 15 years ago (as you stated).
  17. In the summer, I wear a sweatshirt with a zipper, which can be open all the way down (total split, so to say). So, you feel a bit cooler while waiting for the load.
  18. Can you please make all forum text black (subjects and posts' text)? Currently is is greyish. Black would make it a lot easier to read.
  19. Hi, I was wondering which company first used ZP material on their canopies?
