Great DZ with an awesome staff. Safety is a first here! Jumping next to the lake makes for great video. First jump or 1000 jump, this is the place to be at.

No, no no.... the old school way of thought is baggy suit. stay away from that advice--- horrible all that crap floating around will affect your body flight. Cordura 500 is what you want-proper fitting. your body position will give you lift Im 6'4 and 260. I have about 10-12 hours coached in the tunnel (eloy and chicago) ..... and no, your sitfly speed will be normal when properly done and with a proper suit, the fast ones will be the ones with poor body position.

I learned a lot from watching someone video my landings. Watching video i saw i was not flaring all the way. maybe only 50%. And some German guy at Eloy told me when to start my flare a lot better. He said to imagine someone is standing in front of you as you are on final. when you are at the altitude where you could kick him in the face, start your flare. my next jump- the landing was perfect. couldnt find him again to say thank you, but till this day i still say to myself on final, "feet knees together, toggles up, kick him in the face flare flare flare".

can we please get this awesome dood a GoPro?

now what? i like watching videos where people try to collapse the slider

jumped it this weekend, cant feel it at all. reviewing some video shot of me, it show the pillow not moving at all. I like it

Great company, took just over a week to arrive [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/girthy/media/E7536EAD-9D1E-4483-83BC-DBB7E3246DED-21280-00000F0B340A6641.jpg.html][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/girthy/E7536EAD-9D1E-4483-83BC-DBB7E3246DED-21280-00000F0B340A6641.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/girthy/media/C0A910A3-E4BC-4DC9-92D9-4345B7ABFAD6-21280-00000F0B4C075952.jpg.html][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/girthy/C0A910A3-E4BC-4DC9-92D9-4345B7ABFAD6-21280-00000F0B4C075952.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

Surprise rodeo dive!!!

just a few got out at 10.5, the rest of the loads went to 13.5.

Your spelling could be correct. They were RW team. Probably 20 of them?? Launching 4ways with camera. If you got on a load with 2 four ways plan on pulling high to make it back

Team Qatar, some of you guys are real pricks dragging your feet to hold the plane pretending not to see the lights so your spot is right over the dz, pushing the rest of us long (even the pilot said, watch these guys, i dont trust them) s turns on final, and continuing to s turn even after being told not to. laughing at the "no s turns" sign totally disregarding landing patterns. giving the office staff crap for wanting to check rigs walking across the landing area and not looking over and over. I watched 8 of you guys walk across and cut a swooper off. that poor bastard was screaming and you clowns were too busy flapping your jaws. after he landed, you jerks laughed. what is wrong with you? you were all standing still when he started his 180, and the minute he started, you clowns started walking. You guys were in the wrong! furthermore, you are lucky he was very skilled, you gave him a 5 foot isle and he did it. felt bad for people who showed up monday when they did Other then team Qatar, Eloy dz and staff rocks!

I just bought a zigzag v3 and half of its florescent yellow and it has magnets and a skyhook

Ok, thanks for the advice everyone. Just sucks because the DZ i went to and had it ordered from is just over 3hrs away. I'll call them tomorrow and talk with them. I want it to be perfect, just trying to avoid a drive.

I guess my biggest problem was the torso measurement. I think i can measure it ok. Base of the neck to hipbone point measurement. im getting 2.5" larger measurement. This seems to be a lot and im guessing the main lift web will be to long?

I ordered my V3 a few months ago. I had a rigger measure me and order it. Its supposed to be complete in December. Today i double checked the measurements, and all the measurements seem a bit large. Waist, chest, torso, and leg strap are all a bit big some measurements by 2" over what i measured. Is this normal in case of jumping in cooler weather? or was this done incorrectly? Im going to call friday and question it, but wanted some insight first.

I jumped a Raven 254 as a main for two years. It opened quick--real quick. But never had any problems. Easy to pack, and a flare that always sucked. I would have zero problems using one as a reserve.

Someone should introduce this guy to Jeb corliss Jumping without a chute and landing without a chute
