  1. Unfortunatly I have to disagree here Tom. She had how many jumps? 51 or something like that? Thats VERY close to being a student, and she should have remembered her training, about her Cypres since she used one on her student gear, FRESH as hell in her mind about how it worked if she was trained correctly, don't you think? Sadly enough though, there are people out there jumping that can't even tell you what their reserve is. Keepin' it safe! Ed www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com

  3. Manifest just deducted another $10 off of your account. That sounded like BEER also. It only gets better.....unless it get worse. Keepin' it safe! Ed www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com
  4. A guy 6'5" 278lbs was the biggest I have ever taken out of a trusty C182. Our fall rate was 116mph believe it or not. Ed www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com
  5. Unless you were seated in that postion from take off, IMO you can't tell anyone that has done tandems out of an Otter, Sky Van, Casa, or King Air, that the PAC a plane that is easier on the body for a TI to get of. But that just my opinion, give me a taller door anyday. Keepin' it safe! Ed www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com
  6. My private program that I run, with great success, has been 2 working tandems, ground school and 4-5 single Instructor jumps. I use the yellow student cards the USPA supplies, along with using their guidelines for the training and sometimes modify the training for each students capabilities. Not every student learns the same, some learn faster, or are "naturals" in the air. Sadly enough after working at different DZ's over the many year, I have found some that just "milk" the student for every jump in the program, when they clearly could be released from an AFF instructors supervision to continue the progression on the card by doing jumps with a coach and pay considerably less.

  7. Not good either Someone really needs to speak to this person in regards to their rigging. Keepin' it safe! Ed www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com
  8. For his first 30 or so jumps? I dont think so, since this BASE option is on the higher performance suits and NOT recommended for the first suit a beginner is going to fly. Keepin' it safe! Ed www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com
  9. I saw JP had one of those too, but his has hair, eyes, and a nose and mouth! Keepin' it safe! Ed www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com
  10. This just keeps geting better and better. Not only do I do Tandems in Sweden, my club just got its new pac750xl delivered a week ago. Going by the standards of you guys I must be the luckiest man alive Keep us posted on your thoughts after you have done tandems out of the PAC? Unless your a midget, the door is way too short to enjoy getting out of. Ed www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com

  13. Your BEST bet is to take it to your local rigger for cleaning before you get your reserve and AAD packed into it. Keepin' it safe! Ed www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com

  18. I promise, as long as Kim promises to sit down while putting on her rig, so she can jump with me next time..... Keepin' it safe! Ed www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com
  19. I heard they are getting up developed soon. Pablo (speedformula) told me they are going to send him some demos to distribute. He is sending his to Jason (Voodew) in Texas to demos after rigger Pete relaces the zipper(s) broke on the first jump on it. Maybe if you ask nicely he'll send it to you after that? Keepin' it safe!
