Firsts for me as well: 1st solo jumps in CO 1st snow landings 1st jumps with my new Mamba tried to sitfly a couple of times, but didn't even come close. I don't like how the rental rig seemed to flap away from my back so much, and I had a hard time maintaing stablilty in anything except a belly position. The landings were ok tho!!

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites catfishhunter 2 #34 February 20, 2007 Rental/student gear may not be the wisest choice to be trying to freefly in. Talk to your/a instructor before attempting to freefly in any gear that you are not 100% sure is freefly friendly. I got this advice early on and after watching many many premie's adn actually having one I am glad I listened to that advice. but as always talk to an instructor who knows the gear your abpout to put your life on the line with :) MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have.
