I particularly like Guy Manos' introspective look at him self in "Cutaway"I've watched most of them a few times. the only ones I don't own are Fandango (Wing didn't come through) and Gypsy MothsYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!

JohnMitchell 16 #12 September 20, 2005 Greatest instructional video of all time. I really recommend "Point Break", though, for learning serious RW skills. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #13 September 20, 2005 QuoteGreatest instructional video of all time. I really recommend "Point Break", though, for learning serious RW skills. Ooh, John, I beg to differ. I was a static line student and that FJC in Fandango... well, that really provided the missing link between what my instructors were telling me and what I needed to do in the air.

tbrown 26 #14 September 20, 2005 I learned that I should NEVER jump a rig with messy risers, because that means the bad guys cut my main ripcord with bolt cutters and it will make my reserve streamer on me.

mdrejhon 8 #16 September 20, 2005 I saw it back in the 1990's, and thought it would be fun to watch it again a couple months ago as a real skydiver. I see the movie as pretty corny now, but I just had to see it again. Man, they used a lot of old equipment. (Including pre-3-ring rigs!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

homer 0 #21 September 20, 2005 It's kinda like Cutaway and Terminal Velocity you know its all BS and everything is wrong with the entire movie but it's about SKYDIVING so it's ok to watch on those days you can't jump. I'm not afraid to admit I own DZ and Cutaway and watch each at least once a month. CSA #699 Muff #3804 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
