  1. I throw two Skytronic away after one year because there were not working any more, even after changing the battery (I have to say this was the old model).. Have a Pro Track now and it worked all the time. Marcus p.s.> one question to the others: I read in the man that if you hear at 1k the beeps then a pause another beep and then a long holding beep that means the battery is low. After changing the battery it's still the same. Are the batteries coming with the Pro Track are already empty?
  2. If you guys don't like long delivery time, why don't you order a different canopy (sometimes bigger factories have shorter delivery times). But if this is the only canopy you are willing to buy then you should not complain...... blues Marcus
  3. Does anyone knows if I might get any problems when I try to do Freeflying with the Havok helmet? Is the front flat secure in sit and standup? I like full face so please let me know if it's worth to buy one only for FF. blues Marcus
  4. send Aggie from SunPath an email he help me in my case too, email is: [email protected]. Check with him before you buy.. blues Marcus
  5. I anyone rolling the nose? I can't complain about the openings. Can someone explain me what Derek's mod. is exactly? thanks Marcus
  6. Let's say I bought a Cypres in '94 was jumping with it for 3 years and did not jump it for 2 years. In '99 I send it to the service check. Now my question: when is the next check necessary, 2002 (8 years after purchase) or 2003 (4 years after the last check)? blues Marcus
  7. Not if the rigger has to pack the reserve big that it does not moves in the container... M
  8. Got a Odyssey J1K with a PD 143 reserve. My rigger is complaining that the reserve is too small for the container. Does someone has a PD 160 or anything else in this container? I like to have the biggest reserve in there which fit... Thanks Marcus
  9. I'm going to Skydive Express York. I heard something with a DOS (dual action sys,). Hope they have it there. Marcus
  10. A question for the Aussies: When a student after his AFF (USPA) comes to jump in Australia (still without licence), does he has to convert to the SOS (Single Op. Sys) and when he has the licence to learn everything again? Is it a regulation that students MUST jump the SOS system? cheers Marcus
  11. _________________________________________________ QuoteA Cobalt will absoulutely be my next canopy. I am not sure whether it will be a 150, 135 or a 120. I am going to demo a 150 all day tomorrow. The main reason I want one is the added safety of a safe deployment head down at 200mph. I just want the added safety of the Cobalt. _______________________________________________ That's perfect advertisenment, you don't need to demo a canopy any more when you are already convinced from the quality of the product. RIGHT? Marcus

  13. A friend of mine has a tony suit its a mix between a FF-Suit and RW-Suit (baggy legs and arms, with grips and no booties). To be honest it's the uglyest suit I ever seen. I would buy a proper RW suit and jeans and jumper for FF!! Marcus
  14. Really good introduction for AFF. But a sit-exit & recover with a backloop in the box-position is new for me in AFF Level 7..... Marcus
  15. How do I put a 35mm Canon camera on top of the hawkeye helmet? Do I need a bracket? What is the best position for the camera (in front or more back). If someone has a photo of his setup maybe you can post it here to give me a idea... thanks blues Marcus
  16. buy a product (e.g. canopy) from a company of which you don't like their policy or the attitude of the representative persons? What is more important the product itself or the company? Isn't the market so close that everything counts? blues Marcus
  17. It is not only you I totally agree..
  18. welcome to the world of advertisement, try as many as you can (just be careful with the wingloading) and then decide on your own. blues Marcus
