dolphin bridal protection

[cherokee 0]

Hey does anyone have a picture of the dolphin with the bridal protection, so I can see if mine is protected? [email]

How about posting a picture of yours instead.

My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Hey Hookit -thanks for the reply- I'll get a picture on soon as I can, bear with me I'm new on this machine here.

Just out of curiosity, since I've actually have never seen a dolphin rig.
Are stock rigs freefly ready?

I guess if I can still see about 3 " of exposed bridle I must not have the full protection huh! Looks like it's going back to Mike for the update.

Mike also has an upgrade making the reserve flap freefly friendly. He will add a tuck tab to the bottom of the flap. Be sure to get that.

Hey mobley- Thanks alot for the info on the reserve tuck tabs, I already had that in mind along with the bridal protection. I talked to Mike this morning and I'm gettin ER DONE.

I'll try and post the picture when I get the rig back, it'll be about a week . What's the format for posting pics . Is there directions on the forum somewhere?

This is a test for posting pictures, so I can post the bridal protection picture on the dolphin on a later date. Flacon 215- Now I'm shootin from the hip with my new rig

Just a thought but... get a collapseable pilot 'chute, collapse that slider and pull it behind your head, then flare a little more evenly and you will be amazed how much easier it is to land perfectly every time.

P.S. This is me trying to be constructive when I'm totally pissed... cheers! Otherwise, be safe and have fun!!!

I know Matt- That was an old picture of my falcon- I have since purchased a Hornet with the collapsible slider and everything is more Swoopy. Diggin it! Cheers to the pioneers who kept our sport rockin.

Any luck with those pictures??

Hey blu- I got the rig back and was really pleased with the up-dates done to the container. Bridal protection is tits, also Mike threw in a new boc pouch, and reserve tuck tab I'll get the pictures sometime this week. Keep a stiff upper lip.

Thanks for posting the pics. Anychance you can take one close up. They are all pretty far away. I want to see it up close so I can see the type of material, where it is sewn, etc..

______________________________________

The bridle protection on the Dolphin is 500-denier Nylon Codura material. It is sewn at the edge of the flap then the 3/4" trim-tape is applied. Hope that helps.

so technically the boc pouch needs to be shifted also, towards the center of the container. Hmmm.. I'm thinking about doing this to my rig, it's an older ('95) Infinity.

No! Think about it. You shift the B.O.C. pouch more toward the middle, you are in turn, creating a length of bridle, not protected. There is one inch distance between the top of the B.O.C. pouch and the 'corner' of the container. The bridle protector (finished) is one inch wide. The width of the Type-4 webbing (bridle), is one inch wide. See, where I'm going with this? I've done a 'ton' of them and have never moved the B.O.C pouch. Unless of course, the pouch needs replacing.

Hey Cowboy Chuck- Got a riggin question about packin a raven 218 for my rig, after the canopy is flaked and laid out, what is the reefing procedure is that some kind of pulling out of the cells or just a fluffing thing, and do I just roll it into thirds to fit into the free-bag? Cowboy UP dude

[masterrig 1]

Do you have the instructions? I didn't notice in your profile, any mention of your being a rigger. The instructions, will explain what to do. I'm not trying to hedge or be a smart aleck. I'm just looking for a little clarification.
