BlindBrick 0 #78 January 12, 2008 Amazon, can you opt to exit out of the speed gate early? My canopy was modded to snivel a long time to serve as a brake before full inflation. From experience, if I deploy at 180 (which is not a horribly fast belly speed for me), it takes approxiamtely 2000 ft to get full inflation. a 2500 ft pull altitude would be dicey. -Blind"If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

The dynamics of the jump has you accelerating from EXIT from the aircraft... your acceleration continues till you pull out of the dive into a track( to bleed off the speed) Your average speed for the dive will be lower but you would be safer. If you have those kinds of speed on your belly... I would suggest a really big jumpsuit with a lot of drag for normal jumping... BUT you should do well at speeding.... if you can maintain a stable body position when you are penciled out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a couple of PM's with suggestions so thank you all for them, I can always use the help. oh June is gonna get here fast...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or are you importing 19 Tejas chicas for the jumps? yeah I know I dont see the boob page either, but it was nice thought lol I have thought about that, the 20 way is about the formation. The star that we build iis n the shape of a "star" not the traditional star being a round. So it has become known as a Texas Star for many years, so we should be able to build the formation piggybacking the formation not the location. Besides who cares, you are jumping with 19 women!!!????? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
