  1. 4 way GO ARCTERYX!!! Best of luck!
  2. Kelly, i am glad it worked out for you and you were able to try that Triathlon 150. Hope you have enjoyed Summerfest and had fun skydives there. Let us know if there is anything else we can help out with. Hope to see you again in out travels! Les and Cookie
  3. Hey Dougie, sounds like it will be one of those: " another one bites the..." :)
  4. It is not easy to find a right setup while you are so new to the sport. It is always great to be able to demo gear before you make your own decision. When I lived in Canada I did not have an opportunity to demo gear, but there are several DZs in the states which have quite large gear stores with several multi manufacturers demos. Maybe by the time winter rolls around, and you are aching to jump then, you will have a chance to come down south to one of winter boogies at Perris, Eloy or Z-hills. All those places have demo gear that you can try. Also look for demo tour schedules, Aerodyne and PD have their demo teams visit places and you can find their destinations on their websites. Also Art from SkydiveStore.com have been visiting dzs with demo gear. http://www.flyaerodyne.com/fly/calendar.asp http://performancedesigns.com/pdzone/tour.asp#usa http://www.theskydivestore.com/roadtrip.htm Good luck!

  11. I had an opportunity of working with Jay Stokes and Rob Laidlaw as well as taking some of the courses taught by them. They are very good at what they do, laid back and by far interested in all candidates success. I would recommend their courses to anyone in the industry.

  15. I have two Mambas 96 loading them about 1.85 :1. All I can say that for the longest time I wanted to buy a Crossfire 2. Last summer I have demoed Crossfire 2 and put several jumps on it. Then without doing a demo I ordered Mamba 96. It was a gamble but after couple of jumps I knew I had my container full of fun. I have put about 150 jumps on my Mamba since April. This is an ultimate swooping machine in the non-cross braced fully elliptical class. I will take it over Crossfire 2 any day for a simple reason of performance. All inputs are awesome and it is very responsive to harness turns. Front riser pressure is very, very light giving you ability to stay in a dive longer. If you are already using rears be prepared for long swoops. It lands awesome using toggles as well as just rear risers. Demo one if you have a chance!
  16. Tunnel AFF Program is not an experimental. Rob Laidlaw and Skydive University has been implementing this program for years with great success. There are several schools in the US who teach TAFF. If you would like more info I suggest contacting Rob. http://www.skydiveu.com/
  17. Just wanted to take a moment and extend our condolences to families and friends of both jumpers. My wife and I have been staying at DeLand this winter and happened to be living next door to Bob. We have gotten to know Bob quite a bit and all we can say is that he has been one of the best neighbors we have ever had. Bob we are sorry we will not be able to have that dinner with you before we leave this week. Thank you for helping us and making us feel welcome during our stay here in FL. Keep your mind opened out there. We will see you on the other side, but not just yet. So long brother, Leszek and Cookie
