SkydiveMonkey 0 #1 February 8, 2002 This is getting so annoying now. My email address is on the University Club that I'm on the commitee of (University of Plymouth Skydiving Club ie UPSC). I've had several people from NEW DELHI visit this site thinking it's an academic site and asking when these UPSC exams are. Does this not look like a skydiving site to you? SkydiveUPSC It's annoying as my email address is [email protected] as well !!! Don't these people get it? my mind is like a canopy - 9 cells and I'm happy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkydiveMonkey 0 #6 February 8, 2002 I'm thinking of setting up a web page with a skydiving exam on it and pointing them to that. Questions such as "Why is ROL not suitable for freefly" should confuse them !! my mind is like a canopy - 9 cells and I'm happy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #15 February 8, 2002 or "Rubbing On Leg" which is after the beer light comes on and well, it doesn't really involve a rig, or anything skydiving related, except for a chick skydiver...The beatings will continue until morale improves.

skybytch 259 #17 February 8, 2002 ROL=rear of legstrapHistory lesson for today (someone who's been around longer than me feel free to correct any inaccuracies...) - In the progression from ripcords to BOC throw out's, ROL was the second place that throw out p/c's were mounted - first ones were mounted on the belly band (Wonderhogs, circa the good ol', bad 'ol days). Pull outs came into use about the same time as throw out p/c's were moved to the legstrap. BOC (bottom of container) started to be see in the early 90's where I was jumping (may have been available prior to that). pull and flare,lisa--What would Scooby Doo?

Rainbo 0 #25 February 8, 2002 skybytch is right...your welcome...after several bounces because of twisted belly bands the throw out was moved by most manufacturers to the legstrap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
