  1. He had a canopy collision at 700 feet or so .O briens chute was still inflated the other guy,Doug Selix, has collapsed. could have and probably should have landed it.BUT at about 200 feet , O Brein cut away ,waited a second or 2 (estimated at 100 feet)then pulled his reserve. His square reserve did not open in time.
  2. please ,just curiouswhat everyone thinks is the most popular.thanks
  3. I use a Singer 112W116 double needle with puller.And a Columbia(union special) for single needle work.
  4. Is ground launching the same thing as Paragliding?
  5. Interesting dilemma. Years ago i knew a guy who was epileptic,but he didn't tell anyone at the dropzone.(we found out after he bounced) He was jumping a racer (no auto opener) and had a seizure in freefall. Went in with nothing out. At the same dz we had a guy who was known to us to be epileptic and it wasnt a problem so long as he had his auto opener .
  6. As a matter of fact ,I do.I have dealt with Charlie for a number of years and NEVER had a problem. If you stop and think about it, he has been in the business for quite a while,and these 2 people are the only complaints I have ever heard. So I am willing to say that 2 complaints Vs. the number of years in business = a pretty good track record.Thats probably a whole lot better than the industry standard.
