The Z-hills Double Fatal Speculation Thread
wasatchrider replied to base283's topic in Safety and Training
I don't use an aad but it seems like it would be safer for those things to fire at 1000 ft. I guess it could cause more two outs but I would rather have two out than one at line stretch. BASE 1519 -

Your "Usual" Jump Altitude?

if you start packing for yourself you will be able to pack in less than 15 min after a few pack jobs I never used a packer after my aff where it was mandatory and my pack jobs never took more than 15 maybe 20 min the fist couple BASE 1519

Don't forget about the AAD. A CYPRES has depreciation of about $100/year and maintenance costs of about $40/year. This is the same regardless of jumps (unless you do a lot more jumps than you say) Vigils have a different cost, I don't know that offhand. And you mentioned the "non-directly-financial" stuff. For me, owning my own rig is worth it. It's mine, I'm the only one who jumps it (mostly), I don't have to worry about which rental rig I get, I jump the same canopy each time. unless you dont use one then you pay nothing BASE 1519

Second Tandem or AFF?
wasatchrider replied to genericusername's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
as far as the hitting on you may run into that everywhere I dont know? for the aff if you are going to plan on taking it might as well start now. some dropzones may make you do a tandem at their dz or accept one from another dz. or not need one at all I dont know to much just my opinion everyone that will answer you question will have more jumps than me BASE 1519 -
