But I wouldn't suggest it if you don't feel up tp it.
  15. No I weigh about 180 also I just quit smoking and probally gained a few pounds which I'm sure has me at a high wing load. I'm trying to lose some pounds hopeing to hit about 170 /175 (hoping that will help) but I didn't think That the wing load was that bad? at 180/ 185 I have jumped rental 190s a few times but the sabre seems to be alot faster and more of a swoop at the end than anything I ever jumped before.
  16. Well I jumped the d*%m thang Before the load up I started asking were every one was going to pull and letting folks know I was going to pull high ( 5500 ) after asking about separation time from the top jumper on the load , he asked the pilot to give us 2/10ths more than the prev load , the pilot (I guess) heard something else and to make a long story short we were a long way from home when we exited. Off topic it looks funny seeing the DZ from that far away it looks like your alot lower than normal when your looking at it from a distance rather than above it ,anyway its a good thing i did open at 5 5 because I was one of the only ones who made it back and I was the last one to jump. so needless to say I didn't have much time to play or even get use to the can as I was trying very hard not to have to make a landing on the highway . the landing was very scary as I never had one that fast or in the swooping style my first flare was about half brakes that seem to make little diffrence and the 2nd flare gave me one hell of a swoop that launched me forward like a rocket ( for me anyway) so as I aproached the ground I just put my feet out in a water ski posistion and hung ten all the way in. then of course ScReAmED THANK YOU LORD !!!
  17. WHAT THE F*%K IS A WHUFFOS ( I hope its not me) and I saw on person try and abrevate it ? Anyway if you know what there talking about why does it bother you so much. do you want to point out that you know more or better than someone else (not you just in general) I do it to some times ,I geuss when your passionate about something it kind of offends you. when People arn't up on the latest termanology . I get it
  18. Anybody here from chester? Keep looking for some folks from Skydive Carolina but haven't seen anyone yet ---Am I the only one?
  19. I read that her res was not open all the way.(maybe she pulled to late) Its also said she told the press she didn't know how to fix the main ( uh CHOP IT! ) glad she is okay.
  20. Well that sounds about right the last time I tried to set up for the comfort, I didn't pull them as tight as normal and man that was a long ride. I'll try that.Thanks
  21. I want to pull high(12000) just to pratice with my can,but let me ask you guys. should the harness hurt your legs ( inside theigh area) when your under can, I dont know about this rig as I have never jumped it But all the rental gear has not felt very good in the theigh area. not pain but very uncomfortable is that always going to be like that ?
  22. Well I guess what I should take from this is that I should just grin and bear it. Maybe I wasn't very clear maybe I should take more time to explain what I'm asking, I after all am not a very intelligent person. And I'm a very horable writer and I do tend to jump from place to place with my thoughts sorry for any confusion I may have caused. What I wanted to know was at what altitude should someone pull if jumping a (new to them rig) that they have never jumped before. FOR example / Once when I was on a air plane that was taking up skydivers , the Said skydivers where asking where every one planed to pull at ( What Altitude ) One skydiver said " I will be pulling at 6500 feet because this is a new rig". Not wanting to bother the gentleman at 1100 feet for the meaning of his comment I decided that this must be the thing to do when you have new equipment (pull high in case of something unexpected or different than what your used to happens) I figured on the ground or on this web site would be a better place to talk about it. I don'tcome hear to learn how to skydive I come hear to talk to other people who love the sport as much as me , to get there opinion on things. Not to try and skip over any coached jumps. I geuss it just struck a never when someone told me I had no business buying a rig. I thought this was a free country, I thought that if I wanted to by a rig and jump out of a plane and land on my head, than that was my GOD given right. be cause in fact I do have business buying a Rig MY BUSINESS. I give everyone the respect they deserve and anyone thats been jumping out of planes longer than I've been alive will deffintly get his/her due share I just ask for the same chance as I give. My mother always thought me if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all. I respect everyones opinoin but that felt more like a kick in the teeth than advice. but all in all I should have been less ambiguous; . not only am I new to skydiving but I'm also new to these web boards too , I used to post in all capital letters until some one told me it was like yelling , who would have known. But anyway thanks again for everyones patience I will try to be less of a problem. Sorry for the bother. and THANKS to all who took the time time to post. I do appreciate it. man that was long.
  23. What the h*ll? I want to say thank you to all who responded positively like an adult and to the others, I'm sorry to ask Questions I thought this was a discussion board, you know a place to come and talk about the things we love to do. I also thought that the sky diving community was full of nice people that enjoyed helping others in the sport , rookie or pro. I guess I was way off , there seems to be folks that just want to be negative about everything. I'm sorry I wasn't born with a rig on my back at 14000 like you guys. Its not that I dont know when to pull but thought it would be nice to discuss when to pull with people I RESPECT, to see what every one had to say. I always ask my instructors on everything I do but thought this was a place to talk about things when I'm not at the DZ. I,m just a rookie asking questions . I'm not falling from the plane emailing for instructions in mid air. anyway thanks to all and sorry to be such a bother. Peace out and Blue Skies
  24. Well unless something else goes wrong I should have my first rig in my hands this weekend and weather permiting I'll jump it. But anyway when should I pull and for how long? I heard some people say 15 20 times at about 6500 feet. Any thoughts or suggestions. Thanks yaw Blue Skies
