Has any one had the chance to shoot video with it in a skydive? If so does any one have a link to the footage? Thanks!

Haha so true

Hey, I was their two months ago with two other friends. They have quite a crew out their. All good people and had plenty of rental gear for the three of us. I forget what they called the plane but it was something van... Not a Cessna though. They fly to 10k and that sucker took all thirty some minutes to get to altitude! I think they need four fun jumpers to get a load up. We jumped with one of the TM their, got two jumps in one day. Hope that helps. I believe it is called Emirates Drop Zone or UAQ Aero Club. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=2087888&id=514158259&ref=nf#/group.php?gid=40389943592&ref=ts http://www.horizonuae.ae/uaqaeroclub/

A buddy of mine used his 4flight integral cut model helmet on a skydive and the visor slammed open upon exit. Probably not a good idea that he did this but he quickly learned. Not sure if all the models do not come with some sort of locking mechanism for the visor.

http://www.backcountry.com/store/SMI0479/Smith-Variant-Helmet.html Sorry didn't add that this is the helmet I have been using for BASE. Lately I have been skydiving it with the GoPro Cam and don't care to much for this setup.

I may be answering my own question here, but thought I would ask. Is the Liquid flat lock top mount adapter the way to go? People running vid cameras on Protec style helmets. What type of mount are you using? I am using a similar helmet but I think it may be different in the interior. http://www.backcountry.com/...-Variant-Helmet.html I plan on using a Sony CX-100, thanks in advance! Top mount of course.

i hope this is the right thread to post in? I have a rig for sale but have no idea what it is worth. 2001 javalin J3 200 jumps on 01 Safire 190 Zer0 rides on a PD 160 reserve it is red /black/ white on reserve flaps with red piping. Cypres 1 AAD new battery and check 11/2008 -- Articulated stainless steel ring harness---Red Hackey sack handle---BOC, Collapsible slider ---RSL removed---kill line pilot chute---cut-in back pad ---soft reserve handle,---PD slinks installed on main. ---Main canopy is black and white alternating cells with ---white top skin. It has one grass stain on it, right leg strap. Any takers on what this would be worth, or where I would be able to find in answer? Thanks in advance!

Seems like Koloma may be the place to go for jump numbers. Any other place that compares in the area?

I got a week to get current in my tracking skydives, with all my BASE related gear minus the rig of course. Then I head to Norway for the Heli-Boogie in June. Was wondering where in Europe is a good place to get a lot of jumps in a day during the weekdays. Is there a DZ in Europe or maybe Asia that you can get 6-12 jumps in a day, (may-june time frame)? Thanks in advance.
