  4. Might be from a house clearance I brought a whole kit bag with rig, alti, jumpsuit, gloves the lot for £60. It was all from a guys house who had given up 20 years ago and emigrated to Australia, the alti and jumpsuit covered the cost I paid for it, shoved the rest in the loft the rig was from the 70s and had a Stratos Cloud main,

    Lots of Brits working full-time outside of the UK just maintain a USPA rating as it's simpler / cheaper

    and it got me thinking, WHAT are the differences between the two? the only one I ready know is that USPA requires 500 jumps min and BPA requires 800, so the question I ask is what else is simpler about it and what is the real differences in cost?

  16. I hoping to jump a thunder bow in a couple of weeks, one of the guys at a local DZ has one, they also have a round too but not sure what it is.

    I've always fancied jumping an old school main I think these days we don't realise how good we have it with the modern equipment.

    I've attached a picture of the thuder bow doing some CRW lol

    I have claustrophobia (dislike elevators, roller coasters, things I can't get out of, etc) and become utterly terrified...



    can I just ask a question? If your claustrophobia is as bad as it sounds how do manage to sit in a small, cramped jump plane for up to 20 mins on the ride up to altitude???
