theonlyski 3 #26 July 6, 2010 Quote Quote I've noticed that Americans don't usually read instructions. Once again Kallend, you are wrong. We do read the instructions. We just choose to ignore them. Step 1: Put helmet on your head Step 2: Attach any chin clips, tighten any draw strings. Step 3: Skydive. To remove helmet, work backwards from step 2 to step 1. Why do you need a freakin manual for that?"I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,334 #31 July 6, 2010 QuoteI put in a new visor every year and I rub some silicone lubricant on the rubber frame at the top of each new visor, which makes it easier to open and close.I use plumber's grease; it's specifically made for contact with rubber things. A little goes a long way. Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.
