I might be in deland the 14 thru the 17th myself uncle sam is given me a 4 day weekend. I grew in the orlando area so if you have in questions about the AO let me know. You must be fast cause you were flying when I past you

The thing is this is tough to answer for someone else it's like asking what container to buy Javelin or Mirage in reality both products are functional, both products have advantagees and disadvantages I think the only advice i could give would be to do your own research and then chose the brand that suits your needs and supplies you with the assurance and safe feeling you need.

No it was not someone from your dad's drop zone . it was a friend of mine from florida. You must be fast cause you were flying when I past you

well once again i see that instead off acknowledging that I did recant the mistake made in ref to the mounting of the device you took a purely personal stance as if my statements were a personal attack. the fact is the equipment i was refering to was a vigil, in your own statment you proved my post, if a company such as vigil can't do the simple things like eleminate flaws that have allready been identified it tells me that there testing and development program is flawed and as a company they would rather rush an inferior product to the market. this is so prevelant the first 4 post on this forum refer to the disfunction of there web sight come on were is the quality control you want people to trust a company who is using micro chip technology that is supposed to never need maintance when the same company can't even do something monumentally simpler like establish a functioning web page. Lets not forget this is an open forum that people use to learn of other peoples' opions/expierances in this sport and the gear used. I am an independant skydiver and I don't use this sight to pimp my sponsor's it's amazing how many times I have seen someone tell a skydiver how awsome some new equipment is only to find out later that they are getting paid to make these comments further more once the sponsorship runs out the same individual is meraculessly not flying that inferior equipment that he/she stuck other people with. in closing there is a big differance between negative performance and derogatory statements don't lose you perspective if an eye witness account to the failure of a peice of equipment upsets some people then maybe they shuold look for a new sponsor You must be fast cause you were flying when I past you

well excuse me yes your rite as far as the the differance between astra and vigil mounting and yes I am human and did make a mistake but that doesn't change the facts of the premature deployment price is not always everything on this matter performance in my opion is more important and the fact that vigil does a self test is irrelevant sevral AAD do self test when turned on. I have witnessed FXC, VIGIl, and astra's fire prematurely. I have not seen or heard of this in ref. to cypress further more I have been present when the airborne test board tested cypress for military use on sport rigs within the military. the performance of the cypress was levels above any other AAD I find in such a unforgiving sport that I will will learn from past expierance of other and not be the one who made it into a magazine do to be cheap You must be fast cause you were flying when I past you

Roger your rite i did cofuse the mounting sytem. deployed at 3000 in the saddle at 2200 reserved fired at 1800 main was stable flight when AAD fired You must be fast cause you were flying when I past you

well one thing I have found is that millitary trained jumpers wether free fall trained or not are much safer than a skydiver of equall experiance with out military jump training. due to the fact that they have more expierance and understanding of the dangers envolved unlike your average civilian kid with an attitude who wants to be cool and show off to impress there friends resulting in cherry mistakes and injuries but hey with all your expierance I don't have to tell you this. You must be fast cause you were flying when I past you

I havn't been to the new web site yet BUT I have personally seen VIGIl in action at the WFFC when it fired prematurly on a friends rig leaving him with two canopies out. Also I don't need anything hanging out of my rig the vVigil system to me is nothing more than a FXC on Crack. My life is worth any amount of money and I believe I will go with a company that is tested and proven as well as consciences enough to place mandetory maintance checks on there equipment. why wait for a couple of skydivers to burn in before you decide that you made a mistake. I will stick with cypress remeber if your going to be dumb you have to be tough You must be fast cause you were flying when I past you

you have to pay to play!! if you go skiing you pay for ski's and lift tickets and ski clothes and a room at the lodge ect, ect scuba diving is the same dive computers tanks fins lessons chartering a boat. with skydiving you will have the ability to meet a community. people in this sport will find a way to get you in the air if you want to jump and you will find that once you make that first jump that you can afford this activity after all. one jump on the weekend and all you problems that week just melt away.

I made my first one at rantoul this year every one said I was insane ( every idiot skydiver in the world being in the air at night) The one thing I would offer is that if you are uncomfortable with or unfamilar with the area or other jumpers position youself as the last jumper on a paticular pass. and ensure everyone has a staggered openning altitude yours being the highest. this will give you an oppurtunity to identify the other jumpers below you and watch them set up and land. learn from them. H-minus You must be fast cause you were flying when I past you

well with that being the case then we are back to the basis that all jumps from an aircraft should be in your log book. SL, Halo, Free fall. You must be fast cause you were flying when I past you

one R- ride on my 150 jump. spinning mal. under brand new SABRE II 150 ( 30 jump on this canopy) I had to send the canopy back to PD it had a design flaw that caused it to spin up on openning. They were real good about it though they ended up giving me a new replacement SABRE II and its been great. You must be fast cause you were flying when I past you
