I've got an Altimax. I use the altimeter and logbook fonctions often all day in mountain for approx 100 days/year. The battery life is about 2 years. I try once to skydive in a protek. I set the altitude alarm to 4000 ft and it sounds when i was under my canopy at 2500 ft... The instructions manual says that it refreshs (takes measure) altitude up to 10s. In logbook mode it'll be mini 20s, that why i doubt you coul have an accurate fall rate if you stop it under canopy. About the "ski runs" I think you 'll have to reach exactly the same altitude to count a lap, like with a chair lift which "did not move" too much. The only advantage i can see is, maybe, under canopy to have an accurate altimeter (15ft). To see how many dives you have done, for the same price buy a (2nd?) pro-track.

The S-Fly is actually commercialised at 750 € (french tax include). Loic & Zun, with the technical help of salomon, have improve comfort, forward speed and durability. You can find them either in babylon (Empuria) or veloce (Gap). http://www.base-jump.com/index.php?Tp=news&Lang=fr&Id=77

Is there any season to buy a parachute ?
Omilkteeth replied to Omilkteeth's topic in Gear and Rigging
I'm looking for my first rig, it'll be a springo 140 or a stiletto 135 (already demo a lot, both). In france, season will began soon (february). Can i buy now or should i wait the end of the season for better price in that type of parachute ? Thanks
