  1. I've just had an interesting exchange with this scammer: I looked up the license in the USPA database and it is an active C license number for Vadim Sverdlov. I'm not sure how this guy procured the information he did, but just thought I'd add this. He whose eye happens to look down into the abyss becomes dizzy. Why? It is just as much in his own eye as in the abyss, for suppose he had not looked down. Hence anxiety is the dizziness of freedom.
  2. Wait, is that my computer sitting next to that sharp looking helmet?!?! Whatup Dave? He whose eye happens to look down into the abyss becomes dizzy. Why? It is just as much in his own eye as in the abyss, for suppose he had not looked down. Hence anxiety is the dizziness of freedom.
  3. Yo man, so yeah, haven't updated jump numbers in quite a while. Over 400 jumps now. hehe. Anywho, when I said I hadn't jumped one before I meant specifically the flat top narrow. I have actually been jumping a Hawkeye with rebel xti (canon 15mm) on top with gopro for a good while with no issue at all. Just when I went to the front-mounted stills it rocked me. I have a stilleto 135 (1.25) which I get about an 800-1000' snivel out of after rolling the nose. Looking down always for sure obviously. Is the stiletto not a good option because of it's squirrely openings? Any suggestions on canopies? Do you think that doing a rebel top, cx150 side mount on an optik or rawa or something might help? I kinda had the same reaction as you thinking that if this type of helmet was so bad, why would anyone fly them? But maybe my neck just isn't as strong as others? Thanks for the two cents! Two more would be awesome! L He whose eye happens to look down into the abyss becomes dizzy. Why? It is just as much in his own eye as in the abyss, for suppose he had not looked down.

  4. Iwan, Just got a flat top narrow. CX 150 on top, Rebel xti inverted on front. Hadn't jumped one before and really messed up my neck on the first weekend. I was about ready to get rid of it, but do you have any insight/advice on openings with this particular type of helmet and mounting?
