  2. My housemate just got an Alti 3 and he rekons my FT50 is better. It's all personal preference. I like the slightly larger face on my FT50, but Alti 3's are cool. Don't pull low, unless you are [email protected]

  19. I rekon if everybody on earth were skydivers, there'd be a lot less trouble cos everybody has got something great in common. (And we'd need a lot of planes, and companies like PD and Icarus would be bigger than Microsoft !!)
  20. I was spinning on every jump I did until I tried that postion and it worked every time, and I'm a lot more stable now than I was then. I also like the way it's easier to read the alti. Don't pull low, unless you are [email protected]
