eUrNiCc 0 #2 December 4, 2006 8 smoke canisters on one jump?? That'll get expensive fast! The paragear cold smoke sucks, the only thing that I've ever had any luck with is M18 (hot) smoke. I talked to Joey Costa, and he said that the Orbit Punks used to be sponsored by some company that made really good cold smoke.Egad, A BASE life defiles a bad age.

matthewcline 0 #3 December 4, 2006 Go to the thread in Genral Skydiving and look at the Smoke talk there. 8 smokes is not only expensive but hard on the leg thay are attached to! MattAn Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flipper 0 #4 December 6, 2006 Have had best results with hot smoke,burns for about a minute.Way to keep it cheap is to beg or borrow from demo teams. Military are the best ones to ask as they dont pay for it hope this helps Flipper Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frogout 0 #5 December 9, 2006 Habana Monecristo's are your best bet for smoking in freefall, particuarly No. 4's as they are easy to hold whilst wearing wearing gloves. I've tried cigarettes but they tend to break up...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
