jkbasejumper 0 #2 November 4, 2006 Quoteriser disconect another way of saying "you're fuk'd" at BD in 03 or 04 i don't remember which but i was doing gear checks at the exit point.anyway there was this one jumper who said he didn't need a gear check because he had already checked it when i told him i had to check his gear if he wanted to get on the ramp he reluctently alowed me to to do so.upon inspecting his gear i found a riser that had come undone. the 3 rings were still together but the yellow cable had come out of the keeper loop on the back.He was jumping older gear and after putting the cable back in there was not alot of excess.this would have no doubt in my mind led to a fatality.but the look on the jumpers face was priceless.so a little off subject but a simple gear check can save lives.It only takes a second to do so why turn it down and why not ask a fellow jumper for it.big country base998 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
