    Not Bad ... if you have time and cash. Some people do. 1000 jumps for $ 7.50 ea. . I'd do it ( if I had the cash and time ). Life is short ... jump often.

    I have to disagree, from personal experience. My advice would actually be the exact opposite. Had two nasty openings in a row. After the first one, I tucked my chin (as someone told me to) on the second opening and ended up with three herniated discs. Tucking it put me in a more head-down type position, which caused the backward whip to be even worse. Since recovering from the injury and talking with several people, I now make sure my head is as far back as I can put it while pulling and through opening. This won't affect the actual opening in any way (though it is nice to see your opening), but in case it's hard, my head is already as far back as it can go - no whiplash. Just my opinion and personal experience ... perhaps the science behind it is the same and I'm just stronger holding my head back rather than forward. Best of luck to the OP healing quickly!Quote Good luck with that ... Life is short ... jump often.

    This question is for anyone. After a few hundred work jumps with my Canon Rebel and several hundred with my Sony NEX 5n, I'm thinking of GoPro for " stills only ". I will continue to use my Sony CX 110 for video. I like the pics I've seen with GoPro's, but not sunset load pics or heavy overcast days. These become grainy. Did Hero 4 control this problem ? Can anyone post deep sunset load pic qualities ( even fun jumping ) ? What have you seen in these conditions ? P.S. My Sony got trashed one day, so something new is in order.
