  1. One consider who's gear you'll be jumping, if they are Strong only at your area? I been through Strong, there precourse is very through, I even own a Strong. Then turned around after 200 and got my Sigma/Vector rating after a couple years. Loooking at the two side beside not hard to see the diffrences, Strong wants any type of repairs done by them not even a rigger. So consider that with everything else, most drop zones that I know of are going with Sigma/Vector more. Being that rigs aren't asked to be sent in yearly, and maintenace work can be done by a Riger. jgaley69 www.jumpelvis.com

  5. Everyone needs to be there, nothing like jumping from that plane at night! jgaley69 www.jumpelvis.com
  6. I normally don't hook up, till time to get everything ready to exit......Unless in plane with a bench seat then can ride up with shoulders hooked up. jgaley69 www.jumpelvis.com
  7. I've watched some youtube! Can figure somethings out knowing where they are jumping and plane jumping out of. But also if you go somewhere to assist you should get with them on exits......All do diffrent, even video flyers ask for things to be a little diffrent. jgaley69 www.jumpelvis.com

    TI question

    Alot of that will be depend on where, who, and how? For me I take up to 220, that's keeping under manufators max. by about 20 pounds. Where I'm at it's my choice, I've done a couple at that weight. Camera guys have trouble keeping up..... I think you should choose well with the Drop Zone that you work for! Tell them up front that you want 200 and under. jgaley69 www.jumpelvis.com
  10. I believe that it was put in Parachutist 2.8 million last year in the US. jgaley69 www.jumpelvis.com
