  1. too bad for them. I think that they will never bring peace there, and unfortunately poor guys will get killed every week. SAD scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  2. how and why the canopy flies, front riser turns (for landing), flying with risers for traffic, etc etc... maybe the only con I would say is he didn't teach us too much on low speed approaches, flat turns etc... This is something quite natural for me, but many people don't do that kind of stuff. I was lucky I had to split the course due to weather, so I got like 50 jumps more practising my exercises before going to next step (1st time I was on straight in front risers final, and then finished on 90 degrees) scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  3. so now you can safely jump with your audibles scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  4. Yeah, I did mine started last easter and finished in july with Reinier. Very instructive. I understand some things much better now. And remember, speed is your friend. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  5. actually my pilot was laughing all the way to altitude when I did it scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  6. and no audible pocket inside ?? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  7. on my sabre1 the lines are much longer, I use this method, or something approaching scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  8. Like Pree said, I'm more for the camcorder these technologies are meant tu be used as their primary role. Other roles are just "options which can sometimes help" BTW my new camera phone has a coffee machine included, bbut the quality is not that good scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  9. I have vectran on my Safire2, look dirty, but I like it better as the flashy microline I have on my Sabre1. Maybe 'cause I like being dirty ? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  10. not scared, but some aprehensions sometimes scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  11. that's what I thought... anyways will try and have a fresh repack when I go back to the states... scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  12. thanks for the precision, Remi do you personnally believe it makes a big difference (180/120 days ??) scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  13. and what about vectran ?? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  14. I don't know the system he uses, but maybe the mini camera she is talking about is this kind of "extension" with just a lens and a cable, size would be like a pen. In any case, the weight would not be a big problem, the size of the camera could be more problematic, with risks of getting caught where it shouldn't scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  15. maybe that's what she heard from her friend which is the actual tandem pilot flying the mentionned camera scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  16. why would a canopy with dacron lines open softer than one with microline ? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

    Cool canopy

    nice design, and very unlikely to be stolen scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  18. impossible to get my slider through... That's why I had mine taken off. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  19. I would have tried to completely pull the cutaway cable, and then go for silver. That's what I would have done when I think about it. In real I think I would have deployed the main. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  20. Helmet without box is the best way to train. Maybe you're gonna video RW or tandems, so get used to fly with them, the same way you're gonna film them. That's what I did and just loved flying a couple of meters above (not vertical, on the side a bit to avoid any premature deployment and also depression which would make you add a participant or extract one or 2) scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  21. you'll love the DVD, hope they understood your french scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  22. AFAIK you should not go back to a total AFF but you would have to do some evaluation jumps with an instructor. Maybe I am wrong, try and contact instructors at the DZ you want to go jumping. They will be able to give you the correct answers scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
