Halfpastniner 0 #6 November 17, 2010 I wounder why they thought tandem systems were the best way to go? A bike doesnt weigh that much.BASE 1384 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyrider 0 #7 November 17, 2010 Next time tighten the stem of the icycle before jumping with it...I am surprised the stem and bars didn;t pop off, the way they were twisting! That jump looked about as dangerous as they get, Unfamiluar gear, strap to frame, forgot where the handles were... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matthewcline 0 #8 November 17, 2010 Maybe it was the only gear with a larger canopy in it for the landings that was available to them. MattAn Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will bring more people into the sport and more ca$h...that's a good thing. Hopefully the more experienced in the sport will explain to said MTV generation that pitching on your back(?) straped to a bike is not the best thing to do...unless you have 200 jumps of course.

I reckon it was to have the Tandem Pilot chute out to get a certain bit stable before deployment. The deployment was very sketchy and I bet after watching that back he wont be doing it again. www.myspace.com/durtymac Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was my thought... didn't re-watch the video, but I'm pretty sure he was stuck on his back when he threw the drogue.*I am not afraid of dying...

Joe MTV likes it dangerous...Joe MTV thinks they are crazy living on the edge jumping out of planes. there seems to be some inverse correlation with my jump numbers and the amount i like travis pastrana and the nitro crew funny how that works my all time favorite AFF student was a kid who came out decked out head to toe in monsterockstaredbull and even brought his own ski goggles and dirt lid helmet to do his AFF in...i wonder where he saw that Jump more, Bitch less.

normiss 851 #25 November 18, 2010 He also went for a BOC and suddenly seemed to remember "TANDEM" before going to the drogue release. We could do with less exposure of this type IMHO. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
