Maybe post this in the camera forum too, must be more cameraflyers with 'accidental' shots around. I also got video of 2 broken lines (not visible on photo...), this linetwist video, and probably some slider-up or other linetwist vid if I go looking for it.

Linetwists, slider up (actually a pic of a normal opening before the slider came down), closed end cells (not hard to get a pic of when you jump a sabre2), and a 2-out I shot of someone else. The skyhi pics are good, but they could use some updating. Some are really hard to tell what's going on. And the spanwise stripes on the canopy are a bit confusing. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites pchapman 275 #14 January 14, 2010 Even if the Skyhi pics are worth the money to get them all nicely printed & laminated etc., yes the spanwise construction on the lower skin with different colours is slightly confusing. More of a concern is that some photos are taken "infront" of the lines, like from a belly cam, rather than "behind the lines", as if you craned your head back to look up at the mess. (At a DZ I'm at, one instructor turns those pics around so the line orientation seems right, but then the canopy is facing the wrong way...) So there are a couple improvements to make if the photos were ever updated.

Maybe a local drop zone has one for their first jump course. I've sold very many to DZs. I was surprised at how fast YouTube removed the videos only a few hours after filing a complaint. One of our ex-jumpers is a high end patent attorney. I'm going to talk with him and see if I can at least make this guy's life miserable for a while.Wink Down To Earth Inc.

There actually is patent law in most of South America, but it is effectively never enforced. You'd actually be looking for a copyright attorney, but again - finding a court in south America that will enforce copyright law is very difficult. Wink - a question I've always wondered. Who's the rigger that stars in your video, the one who deploys the rig on the table and demonstrates the spinning bag? It looks an awful lot like a Rigger I know named Jerry, but he's denied being involved... I always loved the dorky look on his face when he deployed the rig. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites riggerwink 0 #25 August 5, 2010 Andyman, Yea, I know patent and copyright are different animals but my guy is well versed in both. I know I'd never get anywhere but I'm hopinig I can at least make him uncomfortable for a while. The Guy in the video is a rigger but not your guy. His name is Dave Tell and yes, his is kind of a dork but a really good guy. Wink Down To Earth Inc. Master Rigger Parachute rigging is simple. It only has to be perfect.
