It wasn't asked for. And it is overkill for a rigger to repack a main. When I was a more active rigger, my time was better spent on things that required my training, skill, and judgement. Packing mains is none of those. Overkill for a rigger to pack a main??? I find it unbelievably bizarre....Im so grateful I have trusted a rigger with his training, skill, and judgment, after unpacking my main for inspection and adding a new PC... charging me $125.00 CAN. That I had to ask for a repack... I get it, really I do. The mighty ocean has but one taste, the taste of salt. Even so, the true way has but one savor, the savor of freedom.

OK, we can change the protocol now Derek hahaha... geeze

We were talkin about Mr.Bill jumps this weekend... Anyone know why its called a Mr.Bill? The mighty ocean has but one taste, the taste of salt. Even so, the true way has but one savor, the savor of freedom.

Did you ask for a reserve re-pack, replace the main PC and inspect the main or ... Yes I know skydivers that would go to a rigger if that rigger charged $5 less, not realizing or caring that the price difference is because that rigger doesn't re-pack the main. Therefore it is smarter for riggers to advertise by service, i.e. Rserve Re-pack: $35.00, Main Inspection: $10.00, Main Re-pack: $5.00, etc. I list what I do and what I charge by item to remove any confusion. BTW- A lot of riggers don't re-pack the main. Even with a main inspection?... O.k Im learning the protocol... (rollin eyes) The mighty ocean has but one taste, the taste of salt.

Why not? The mighty ocean has but one taste, the taste of salt. Even so, the true way has but one savor, the savor of freedom.

I was quoting him... He was using the ALL, EVERY, and NO. I also thought... by asking for the re-pack, re-placing the pilot chute and checking the main would mean a re-pack for the main. To me it's Common Sense. Charge me the $5 for the pack job, like the $5 for the pinn replacement... What was the point in just stuffing it in the bag and telling me what he did...

DOGVILLE- with Nicole Kiddman... freeked me out for days and... ahh Brad, Brad, Brad. opps ment TROY The mighty ocean has but one taste, the taste of salt. Even so, the true way has but one savor, the savor of freedom.

It was time to have my rig re-packed... After a long winter of changing mains, It was going back and forth with 170's and 150's... I asked the rigger to check the main to see if it was put on properly, I remember it was done quickly and I didn't want to worry about it. I also wanted to replace the pilot chute. So there was a list of things to do.... When I picked it up, He said everything was done, but I needed to re-pack the main. I asked him why? He said, because I didn't ask him to re-pack it... he said Every rigger only does what is asked... and NO rigger re-packs mains with a reserve pack just incase there's a malfunction he didn't want it coming down on him... He also said if I wanted the main packed after he checked it... I should of asked, thats the common "rule" for ALL riggers. So he just stuffed it in the bag. He had no problem changing the pinn, he said it was curved (I didn't tell him about that) Im still, like WTF?? So, my question... Is it solely my responsibility to go through the list in distinct detail with ALL Riggers? The mighty ocean has but one taste, the taste of salt.

So, Basically they have the same risks as everyone else... sore ears, flexibility, possible mal, aches n pains. Im going to pass on this info, and talking to a Dr. is a great idea. Im probably the one who is more scared for his life than he is... LOL it won't be the first time in this sport (like students jumping my pack jobs,when i was learning) Ultimately it will be his choice... my fingers will be crossed The mighty ocean has but one taste, the taste of salt.

A dear friend of the family has been so supportive of my skydiving... He's 72. I thought there would be some risk with seniors on there first tandem jump, with their heart or something else. I would hate myself terribly if something was to happen to him from my encouragement to try it. Is there any info about this other than these experiences? He's in great health, he works out everyday... I hope this doesn't sound naive, I am serious in inquiring The mighty ocean has but one taste, the taste of salt.

My Neph. Cody has AdD... he's 6 yrs and absolutly adorable! I know his diet is very important. The Dr. should give you an individual assesment. Its like an allergy test.
