I mark the competition site on the attached map. I think it's one of the nicest possible locations for a swoop competition.

thanx a lot

can anyone send me a mail with Jeffro's e-mail contact? 'had it but lost it (... and many more -> virus). Or Jeffro if you read this, send me a mail !!

Here I am. I'll contact you by e-mail about the swoop course markers.

the pictures here

0.2-0.3 doesn't really matter if you fit the Zkulls into your flat surface. The base ring is about 1 mm high and after installation it sits that 1mm above the "flat" surface. This creates you a 65 mm wide completely flat part. You would have to be worried, if the surface is +/- 1mm but then I wouldn't call it a flat surface any more. Have a look here and you'll see how the base of the Zkulls sits slightly above the surface. I've just integrated a ZkullsTM in the top of a Cookie MXV. I'll take a picture from the side and post it so you see. the 1mm "step".

Here is one more

Thanx for the info. To save some $$$ on shipping: Anybody knows where to order it from in Europe?

Anybody knows where to order DSEs "The Full HD" in Europe?

We set up waivers for certain events like the Beach Boogie and the King of Swoop. For those events we usually exclude the AAD rule. Apart from that, I'm pretty sure that all DZ operating in Spain need to apply the AAD rule, 'doesn't matter if they are FAE, USPA, BPA ...

Hi Flossy, price you find here http://www.rcb-lab.com/index.php/downloads/72 It comes with a top mount plate, a front mount L bracket and has got a ZkullsTM in the front of the top mount to attach/detach the front mount stills.

The Dual Mount is for those that mainly jump DV but often also need to take stills. On the front of the main bracket is a ZkullsTM installed that allows to "click" the stills on. Also for multiple stills cameras where the top mounted stills camera zooms in and the front mounted shoots wide angle. No problem for the Dual mount on a Fuzion, as long as it has a ZkullsTM top mounted. The front mount bracket works (with a .3 on the video) for smaller camera bodies like D350,400,450. Bigger stills camera bodies are not recommended as they might be filmed by your video camera. You can get prices from dealers ( http://www.rcb-lab.com/index.php/dealer ).

FYI, the ZkullsTMs that are getting installed into several helmet brands have changed in several details since it came out. Some of the older models (especially those with a silver pin (DOM before 02/2008)) have shown a slight movement. New generation ZkullsTMs (pin in gold colour) have eliminated this. In case there is someone out there who is using silver pin units that show this movement, feel free to contact [email protected] to replace the systems at no cost. Happy new year to everybody on DZ.com
