BIGUN 1,071 #1 December 20, 2004 It's that time of year again where I begin thinking about skydiing goals for the next year. I'm seriously considering competing in Accuracy and would like some advice on pursuing this goal. Thinking about the Jalbert 302 (265# otd) Heard a rumor that Accuracy may no longer be offered at the Nationals - any truth in this? Best accuracy meets around the country? Exit altitude? Never competed in this other than the occasional hit & chug. Additional advice?Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

sid 1 #2 December 20, 2004 you might want to email John Eiff at [email protected] - not only does he build an awesome accuracy canopy (The Classic) but he competes too and could probabaly answer your questions about the NationalsPete Draper, Just because my life plan is written on the back of a Hooter's Napkin, it's still a life plan.... right?

JohnRich 4 #3 December 20, 2004 Accuracy is still around at the Nationals, although they usually have a separate landing area so as not to interfere with the other events, so it doesn't get much exposure. The two accuracy canopies in use are the Parafoil, and the Eiff "Classic".

DALAILAMA 0 #7 December 21, 2004 If you are serious about competing in accuracy give me a PM. I have some information on a competition accuracy seminar and coaching available."Dropzone.com, where uneducated people measuring penises, has become an art form" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BIGUN 1,071 #8 December 22, 2004 Spilt Slider D-Ring Slider D-ring Lip Slider Differences and recommendations? I know the first one... not sure about the second two. Do you do seminars elsewhere than Raeford?Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DALAILAMA 0 #9 December 22, 2004 Split slider for demo accuracy. D-ring for classics and Russian D-ring w/lip for those ever wonderful Parafoil openings. Don't be discouraged, My foil (which I have gone head down with) opens slower than my stiletto. I do seminars wherever there is a need for one."Dropzone.com, where uneducated people measuring penises, has become an art form" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
