CazmoDee 3 #1 October 11, 2011 Any negatives to getting wingsuit mods on a new rig if you don't plan on jumping a wingsuit for a long while?I'm behind the bar at Sloppy Joe's....See ya in the Keys! Muff 4313 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ronaldo 0 #2 October 11, 2011 Not really, some will even advise against a longer bridle as they believe it increases the chances of a knot. The only downside may be making the container look good after closing with dynamic corners. It just takes a little bit of care which is not a problem if you pack but hired packers would rarely care about.Engineering Law #5: The most vital dimension on any plan drawing stands the most chance of being omitted Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mchamp 1 #3 October 11, 2011 Are you referring to UPT's cut-out corners? A downside might be you may get used to opening up in a track more often and having no issues until you borrow a different rig without one For info regarding lift ticket prices all around the world check out http://www.jumpticketprices.com/dropzones.asp Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LouDiamond 1 #5 October 12, 2011 simple answer is no.But if you plan on wing suiting at a later date it makes good sense to do it now instead of later."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 3 #6 October 12, 2011 All my rigs have em', whether used for AFF, fun jumps, or wingsuit jumps. I'd advise against a larger PC that often accompanies a wingsuit mod, you'll be changing PC's at some future point anyway. I wouldn't worry about the bridle length.

kallend 1,623 #8 October 12, 2011 I did hundreds of WS jumps with a standard bridle and occasionally would get a PC hesitation. Haven't had a hesitation since I put on a longer bridle. YMMV... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monkycndo 0 #9 October 12, 2011 Recently started jumping the semi stowless bag from Infinity that has the longer bridle. Love it. My openings were pretty good before, and they even nicer now. Just placed an order for another rig from them with dynamic corners. Can't wait to give it a try. Tony/Gail, is it done yet????? 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
