  1. sorry - my fault - i guess i have to edit my posting because the quote referenced to "stall-drills", didn't it? do you all agree?
  2. the links to the "knowledge base" on blincmagazine.com do not work and i was not able to contact the administrator because the contact-link does not work either - can anybody help?
  3. me too please: most dot wanted at gmx dot at thanx.
  4. after i read this post... http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=2424648#2424648 ...i (as a newbie to skydiving) wondered what tension knots are and how you can prevent them.
  5. hmm, i guess the ULTRA was made by paratec and not by parachutesystem...
  6. there is this ULTRA XI harness of parachutesystems in south africa i found in an online-shop of a local rigger - DOM 04/1994. has anyone got information on that harness? (edited to correct DOM)
  7. what is the format of the DVD - will i be able to watch it on my dvd player in europe?
  8. my question: how to fly and properly pilot a 7-cell canopy (when skydiving)? PS: i bought a Super Raven III (250 jumps - DOM 3/1989 - wingload 0.7) to jump/fly it as my main when skydiving.
  9. i bought an old used Raven III (DOM 89) and want to jump it as my main (i know that it is an old, docile canopy...). it was jumped as a main in the past (250 jumps). now some (maybe silly) questions: do i have to pack it a special way? would it be dumb to jump it without prior inspection of a rigger? any tipps for the first jump with a "new" canopy? edited to add: wingload will be 0.7

    info request

    i recently packed a Raven 3 into a Vector II which was used with a Falcon 215 in the past years.
  11. is the label saying "Raven 3 [c]" or "Raven III [c]"?
  12. the canopy was not produced anymore at that time - if the information i have is correct. according to a serial-search-engine on the manufacturers' homepage the imprinted serial number is not valid....but i am waiting for concrete information from the manufacturer. i hope they will reply my email. the problem is that in my country we have to buy an insurance for the canopy - not for the pilot. and i do not want to get troubles with the insurance in case of accident...
  13. there is this canopy with an orange label which seems to have a faked (with a black filler) DOM and serial number on it. how could i cleanse the label so that the original digits are visible again but the canopy and the orange label itself (and the information on it) will not be damaged?
  14. ok, the Raven-A production started 1983 or 1984. but when did the Raven-B production start?
  15. and when did the production start? i wanted it to skydive it as my main to train for base. but thank you for the tip anyway!
  16. there is this Raven - it says "Raven 3 (b)" (not "Raven III") on the orange label - unfortunatelly the DOM (and maybe also the last digit of serial number) on the label seems to be faked (with a black filler)... now i wonder in which period the "Raven 3 (b)" was manufactured? does anyone have a clue?
  17. you could also post it on basewiki.com - that would be great! thank you for your effords.
  18. i like the current skin. keep up the good work! thank you for your efforts! PS: why "anonymous"?

    Track Suits

    ok - this sounds logical. do the cords strech (a little) or are the inductile? inductile cords could be risky when pulling the PC, couldn't they?
