Don't have a major issue with cold where I jump but I do endorse the use of hand warmers - I'm not too concerned about the rest of my body but due to an injury to my hand in 1995 I take care of my digits. After all your hand is better than an AAD. 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

You will receive no support from PDF - so you will not be able to get replacement parts. Customer service is bullshit to non existent! 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

RIP Ann - a pioneer in flying and a well known jumper in NZ in the early 80s. This will potentially play havoc with medical standards though. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/news/article.cfm?c_id=3&objectid=11351337 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

One of the main reasons I visit this site is to seek information & learn. There have been 2 tandem incidents in the Incident forum (2 fatalities & 2 serous harm injuries) and if you read through the threads there is no real useful information to gained - more silence and stone walling by those that are in the know. I understand that there are legal implications but I do feel that we owe it to those that have been affected by these incidents to get real useful information out there so that we can learn and hopefully learn from mistakes made. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=4674104;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;;page=unread#unread http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=4652161;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;;page=unread#unread 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

Cosmonaut rather than astronaut. Add BASE jumper to the list of achievements. Fly free, Major Tim. 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

What's the difference between God and a TI? God knows he's not a TI! Where do you fit in here 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

But I knew where to look for written guidance from manufacturers specifically against hook turning a tandem, didn't I? Now who has more credibility? (That's a rhetorical question) You don't even have 2000 posts so your rhetorical question should not be asked .... or should it? 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

So the fact that there was a drogue issue / failure had nothing to do with the incident!? You are not presenting all the contributing causes. It is so easy to 'cherry pick' the facts to suit ones arguments. 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

I doubt if at any given time 'most skydivers' ever visited this forum. That being said I think there is a big enough cross section of the skydiving community here for this poll to have some validity. Also an interesting observation about this site from someone who joined 2 weeks ago.

Great 1st post, well done 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

Sorry for bumping my own post but - I had an issue which was effectively an id10t problem (self induced). I emailed Mick on Monday morning (he was having a coffee out in the back and beyond) & said that he would get to me when he got back home. By last night (Tuesday evening) he had trouble shot the problem and issued an updated version of Tandem Vids which works a dream - so that idiots like me can keep on keeping on. Onya bro!

F**ken hell - when I was there they would only let 9 on board - extended to 10 during comps to allow for two 4 way teams with camera. Guess that's why jumps were 6500 yen each. 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

I believe 'Pieces of Eight' had a relatively strong radar signature at times. 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

And as I think about it I had my laptop with me for the tutorial side of things and had my work computer dedicated to Tandem Vids setup - made it a lot easier without having to chop and change. 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

Buy 2nd hand - you will grow out of your 1st set of gear quite quickly. 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

I'm a computer 'idiot' but I managed to set it up following the tutorials, but it wasn't the easiest process. Drop Mick (the guy who developed the software) a line - he is a great resource and will get back to you as soon as he can. If you want a copy of my template for a reference point I can get it to you through dropbox. Good luck, once you have got it sorted you will love it. 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

What a load of melodramatic crap. Looking might work! Excuse my ignorance - but what system has 2 cutaway handles - or is this an indication to the research done by the journalist! Full of 'my life flashed before my eyes' bullshit. My 11 year old son could write an article better than this. 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

Because I can - and $45 ain't enough compensation for the time spent justifying why I took someone who obviously wasn't physically fit enough to jump after they suffer an injury. 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.

I hate videos like this - tomorrow there will be a busload of oldies, zimmer framing their way to the hanger with a press entourage, having the expectation they have a god given right to do a skydive because it's on their bucketlist! 2 wrongs don't make a right - but 3 lefts do.
