I'll just tack onto your thread. I have a friend who wants to go through AFF out of Boston. Can anyone recommend a DZ that is friendly to new jumpers? "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

This canopy is the best canopy for people who want the option of putting up some light CRW but don't want to be stuck with a dedicated CRW canopy. It flies like a regular Tri but has all of the CRW mods with the option of using either a single point connection for the PC or the three ring retractable depending on what you're doing.

I had the same problem with my Turbo ZX. When I pack I leave the slider inside instead of exposing it. When I roll the tail, I roll it down to my knees where I have the nose. I lay it down holding the rolled tail at the base of the nose. A further option is to have a rigger cut a hole in the middle of the slider and reinforce it.

Not to split hairs here but we know the issue isn't whether or not he can open it but that his logic is absolute garbage. Nobody doubts his authority, just his brain. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher -

Do you call your study breaks the breaks away from dz.com or your breaks away from actual studying? Your post history is hilarious. Whore, my boy, whore! (The verb tense that is.) "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Yes, it was the inspiration but I got the joke. I laughed when I saw the XXX's. Be careful. If you'd put another X on there then someone's head would have popped off if they'd read it out loud. Try it on an unsuspecting co-worker. "XXXXTreme!" Watch just as they procede to emphasis that fourth "X!" a fucking mountain-board will come flying out of the space vacated by their cranium.

I like #3 because I like the offset. I think the other two are too symetrical. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Do you wear your helmet during take off and landing?
DJL replied to dgskydive's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I do because I think it's easier to just put it on before I get on the plane (ff helmet) instead of having another thing in my hands to fumble with while seating. I don't have a problem with what others do as long as they strap it in. At my DZ, camera fat is good about getting their shots in before takeoff and strapping them in. We'd rather not have helmets, especially w/ camera, tossed around the cockpit in a crash, or even if we had to abort and shit got bumpy.

I say, "Is that as much as you've thought about it?" I, too, get bored quickly with small-talk and cliches. That's a response that will stop that scripted conversation that comes every time someone hears that I skydive. Now they say, "What do you mean?" and I say, "I'm asking you to think about it instead of asking the same question I hear from everyone. Why do I skydive? It's fun and I like the people, the same reason you do anything." As for "the plane isn't so perfect." I don't really like OUR part of the cliche conversation in that respect. I don't jump because, "LOOK OUT, I'm a crazy guy, put me in a Mountain Dew comercial and call me X-treme! I'm a risk taker a rule breaker!" No. It's fun, simple. I'm not saying it's wrong to joke about the risk aspect, it just gets old with repetition. Sorry, I'm no fun right now. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Edited to remove reference to possibly harsh sounding comment. Reparations for slavery? No. Otherwise, I want reparations because my great grandfather was paid less as a doctor because he was born in Sweden and not in the US. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
