TheCaptain 2 #4 April 2, 2010 Wow, that is quite the snag hazzard hanging out there (personally that would scare that crap out of me). Do you have a way to cut the helmet away?Kirk He's dead Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bowie 0 #5 April 2, 2010 As i write in the video. I wont recommend this for real passengers. My passenger in this vid is a experienced skydiver.. My cutaway is the adhesive pads the 2 mounts is attached to the helmet with. But the set up is very easy to jump with.Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
velocityphoto 0 #6 April 2, 2010 You could get beat up for something like that ! :) I'm curious to see what the rig manufacturer has to say about this?

ltdiver 3 #7 April 3, 2010 Okay, that just looks spooky. I mean the still (almost appearing photoshopped) head on a moving body! Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arvoitus 1 #10 April 3, 2010 I'm not a TI but I do have question. Did you open the lower connectors and disconnect the RSL before you did a controllability check with the toggles? I'm not sure if you're turning the canopy from the rears or with the toggles before all the disconnecting and the video is cut so that you'll just suddenly have toggles in your hand. Isn't there a possibility that you'll get a malfunction during the control check and are forced to do a cut-way and since your RSL and lowers are disconnect you'll get into trouble?Your rights end where my feelings begin.

velocityphoto 0 #11 April 3, 2010 Jason Bell did this yrs ago on a base jump and multiple other jumps. I should have some photo's some place if i dig deep enough. He called it the rhino cam.
