  1. i got my own rig before aff a 210 or 220 or somthing used it for 10 or 15 jumps sold it to a bigger dude and made a couple hundred buck put it toward my 170 I still jump now. It can work out never had to rent a rig. BASE 1519
  2. I have lost a shoe twice on a base jump recovered both times but never on a skydive. My wing suit and track suit keep them on now thats about all I do skydiving. BASE 1519
  3. you cant fly a wing suit with 170 jumps haha just kidding.. cant help you though I baught mine brand new. BASE 1519
  4. looks like he uses a pretty big wing suit to me BASE 1519
  5. so let me get this straight they do not let students jump at their own dz during a boogie? Serious question I have never been to a boogie before. BASE 1519
  6. Well allow me to be the fifth to say you totally should! The gear is cheaper and there's no magazine you have to subscribe to so you can buy more gopros. And once you have a BASE rig you can start another thread complaining that DZOs won't let you jump it at their dropzones. I want to base jump too BASE 1519
  7. last weekend a guy on the load who had been jumping for a long time 1st jump back in who knows how long jumping with a gopro tring to film a tantem of his daughter or somebody got into a spin and his aad fired as he pitched road two down. He probably though Ive been jumping for 20 years I dont need to be current. No big deal to wear a camera. Dude couldnt even fly stable. oh ya I was last out sitting behind him and had to ask him if he wanted his riser covers not tucked in he didnt know they werent BASE 1519
  8. I always recommend putting the horse before the cart BASE 1519
  9. "you guys have some simple design elements that just make it a better suit in my opinion (namely: full length leg zips to put the rig on, and stronger pressurization/airlocks). It seems so simple, but I think it's only you guys and Squirrel doing that right now." my pirahna has full lenth zips and rienforces air inlets but its a smaller suit intrudair has bigger suits probablly not what your looking for, just pointing out not the only companies doing that BASE 1519
  10. maybe try and s bird or like above just get a colugo I have a friend that went from a s fly expert to a colugo had probably as many jumps as you in base and was fine BASE 1519
  11. I have a wingsuit, bridge is on the way for me... how much dis boogie? BASE 1519
  12. if you need a test dummy Im your guy BASE 1519
  13. What is pencil packing a reserve? writing in a new date and not getting it repacked BASE 1519
  14. does it have more or less wing than a p3? It has a little more the piranha has a little material that comes down the side where the p3 cuts straight in. Sorry I tried to post a pick the file is to big. I have a pick on my Facebook acct if you want to check it out. BASE 1519
  15. Probably not if we don't go out on the boat I would rather jump it out of the caravan than a king air. My roommate has a p3 and my girlfriend has a t bird it closer to the tony suit but kind of a cross between the two. BASE 1519
  16. Yep my first suit I have 6 flights on it now. I barely make the min requirements for sky dive. BASE 1519
  17. Just got my new suit in and a couple flights in. Super happy with the suit I have nothing to compare it to its the only suit I have flown but it was easy to fly and pull. Suit shipped in 5 or 6 weeks and quiality looks great and fits perfect. BASE 1519
  18. skydive utah and ogden close for the winter although ogden makes a snow load occasionally BASE 1519
  19. Ive put over 350 on my canopy and have not noticed any difference but maybe because its gradual. Ill tell you in another 150 jumps BASE 1519
  20. you should post that on basejumper everybody comes on there with no experience wanting to proxy fly BASE 1519
