  1. I had one of these on demo from Aerosky in the UK managed by the very pleasant Maciej Rybitwa in mid 2014. The canopy came attached to lovely SWS risers with swoop loops that were a pleasure to use. It also made attaching the canopy an easy five minute job. I was impressed with the build quality and stitching, as were the many AP's and riggers that saw it. I managed 12 jumps over 4 days in varied conditions. The openings were always on heading and soft, and consistent at 600ft on my protrack. The glide is good, as are the toggle and riser turns. Recovery from a dive seemed quite fast, much like a pilot. Landings were easy and predictable, again much like a pilot. If the above sounds like your type of parachute then don't hesitate to contact a dealer for a demo. You will be impressed.
  2. Laughed in the face of a client once, very loudly. Hell I almost pointed and laughed. In fairness, she had tourettes and was moo-ing like an angry cow. That might have got me fired but my boss had to run away and go hide in his office. He damn near had an embolism laughing. This looked easier on youtube.....
  3. Well, got back late Saturday night and have passed AFF and managed 3 consols as well. Not bad for 3 and a half days! I actually trapped a nerve so couldn't finish my tunnel properly, had to come back to the Island and then go back again after getting medically cleared. Langar was awesome and Phil Curtis was a mega instructor, back again in ten days to hopefully do everything required for my A licence. This looked easier on youtube.....
  4. Cheers guys, thanks for the welcome and now it's just patience and sacrifices to the gods of British weather :-) This looked easier on youtube.....
  5. Hiya, cheers mate,at Langar with Phil Curtis. This looked easier on youtube.....
  6. Boy oh boy does it feel good to have nailed a date for my AFF week. Four months, a few days, a ferry journey some train time a detour to Airkix and i'm there. Excited barely covers it, i'm proper revving already :-). Any advice gratefully received, i'm staying at the DZ for two weeks and hoping to get my BPA A license complete in that time. Oh hell I don't think I can wait... This looked easier on youtube.....
