    when I got my policy, they could have excluded high risk activities such as skydiving, but if I died doing them they won't pay. I'm 24 so my rates are still low but my rates almost doubled when they included skydiving. It was a % for each 10,000 I had.

    you can see when the maintenance is due again. once you power on the cypres and you get the 0 displayed press and hold the button, it will go through amount of jumps/ serial number and date of next maintenance

    all the money goes to skydiving which makes you only be able to buy ramen noodles, and you can only eat those so long!

    Most people send what I ask. If they aren't good I'll ask for more. If they don't want to provide them, I'll buy from someone else.

    Out of curiosity why didn't you ask for more photos? When I buy something off DZ.com I ask for tons of pictures plus random ones

    out of curiosity how many pictures did you get or ask for before you bought the canopy?

    I started out back flying, and then moved to sit flying. My coach said when YOU cork out during a sitfly you will probably go to your back so it would be a good thing if you could back fly. probably will depend on who your coach is and how he learned

    doesn't seem smart...how has his landings been in all conditions? Why not just go to a 170?

    I have the Large version, but I wish I would have went with the XL one. Carry 1 rig log book, 2 jumpsuits, 3 alt's and gloves. I clip on my helmet bag since I don't have room for it. Love the bag all together though

    congrats ski

    I also have a pdr 160 in mine. So its going to be even tighter for you. Just talk to your rigger and see what he says.
  16. faulk04
    It was a little tight when I put the 190 in there. Had to work on my packing to make it smaller. I can send you a picture of my rig when I had the 190 in it but it's not the greatest picture and you wouldn't be able to see much. Like ski said, what size reserve are you putting in it?

    200 jumps and 1.5 wl with 5 years in the sport? I jump a sabre 2 170 at 1.2 and love it. The flare is amazing compared to the few other canopies I have jumped

    should be 3 free fall 3 canopy alarms that how it is on my neptune and it looks like the same on the neosx

    signed up for the static line FJC the next weekend after my tandem...bought my rig when I had 15 jumps. I saw no need on giving that rent fee the the DZ if I planned continuing to jump

    It is a great tool, even though it's cheaper per minute than skydiving, it's just all upfront instead over a long time frame. I myself have 3 hours of tunnel time with a little over a 100 jumps and it has helped me tremedously. The tunnel is about a 3 hour flight from me. I always recommend people going to the tunnel if they can

    do both places have load organizers?
  22. faulk04
    Ill be there Sunday-Friday...most likely be jumping sunday and friday...Depending on my free time. Ill be staying in Katy so I think Skydive houston would be closer?
  23. faulk04
    I'm looking to make a few jumps while in Houston for work next week. Which DZ would y'all suggest me going to? Looking to do some nice RW

    I bought a few tickets myself, but I won't be able to make the trip up to the boogie so I hope it's a good one! Little too far for me to go :)
