contract 0 #1 October 10, 2013 Is there somewhere we can order the sky balls used in freefall that are filled with lead pellets and empty at a certain altitude if not caught? I've seen them around and checked with online stores but haven't had any luck actually finding them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen them around and checked with online stores but haven't had any luck actually finding them. I empty my balls around 400' on just about every flight. Totally took that thread title a different way. -SPACE- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of DZ's do not allow jumping with objects. Imagine that you live near a DZ. Do you accept the risk that an object can fall trough your roof? IT has happened and will happen again.
