  1. Thanks for the inputs. I will double wrap the primary stow and find out in detail how to set up the direct control of the slider. Test jump should be done this weekend Very thanks to all people that took time to provide some inputs. See ya !! MikeTB
  2. Thanks This is what I mean by slider gate. I will try one or two more wraps..... The rubber band I have is on the slider. Not on the C line center. Is this the same?
  3. Thanks This is what I mean by slider gate. I will try one or two more wraps.....
  4. My slider is a large hole mesh one. But I ordered in the same time a sail slider so now i'm wondering the impact of using it instead of the mesh one. Could you elaborate a bit on the direct control stow. Not sure exactly what you mean. Thanks
  5. Houch ! I got some hard opening after wing suit flights and wondering if someone can tel me how much diference will be in comparison of the following setting. How much longer you think it is with a sail slider insted of a mesh one? Any inpput will be apreciated. Actual: Rock Dragon 266 Slider gate (2 wraps) Primary stow (1 wraps) Mesh slider Vented zp36 pilot shute To try: Rock Dragon 266 Slider gate (2 wraps) Primary stow (1 wraps) Sail slider Same pilot shute Thanks in advance Mike
  6. I did not buy the rig now. Do you have the chest ring option on your one? The handles appear to be lower on this type of container than the other. Just don't know. Any inputs will ne appreciated. Thanks
  7. Seriously, I wouldn't expect any modern gear to be a problem with a wingsuit. (someone please let me know if I'm wrong about this) Thanks, I'm talking more about the line twist often caused by the bag when exiting the tray and interfering with the corner. I know taht this container is mostly designed as a free fly container and may be it's not good for wing suit. Just trying if someone have a Voodoo + a wingsuit and how that works. Thanks again...
  8. HI! Just wondering if there is any issue with the Voodoo + WINGSUIT. I try just to know the real thing before buying one.....Must change my rig and I found someting but come with a Voodoo. Any input will be appreciated. Thanks
  9. Hey Hey just come back from hard work and now I see that some people are frustrated. I have never been to Italy yet and I'm looking at the possibility to see the wall with google eart. Thanks for the PM and hope to see some local with a
  10. Hello ! I'm planing a trip to the Italian terminal wall for this fall. I'm looking for the GPS coordonate of the site. I think once there we will find the green metal tower close to the exit point but I have still no idea where the wall is situated in the province. Any input will be appreciated. Miketb
  11. Thank you all! Maybe I dream to much I change my mind and try to find another b.a.s.e. and scuba diving destination. Miketb
  12. I saw this on mexico b.a.s.e. association last year but not able to reach there internet site. I think it's Puerto Valarta but maybe it's another ressort. What I'm looking for is having a good time with my girlfriend on a ressort and be abble to do some base activities nearby. Could you elaborate on where you where or please PM me. Thanks
  13. Hey!! I heard about a S that is jumpable in Puerto Vallarta Mexico. Any info will be appreciated. Thanks
  14. Is someone heard about wing suit at Salto Angel ???

    Skydive setup

    Thanks, I want to have a permanent setup with my base canopy that I will be able to jump at any dropzone. Taking experience on landing my base canopy is a good thing plus I need to upsize my skydiving canopy. I will sell my skydiving rig for buying an accuracy container and reserve. Or maybe a sorcerer is a good option ? but I do not know if we can junp a sorcerer on a dropzone. Doing reserve in wingsuit with a sorcerer mean one more step than a reserve with a skydiving because we must cut our wings before being able to reach the activation handle. I'm comfortable with that but I dont know about dropzone operators.....
