skyjumpenfool 2 #1 March 18, 2010 Here's a new game.... Guess how many jumps this person has based on his/her add in the classifieds. Here's the add... Storm for sale "This Storm 170 was made custom for me back in June of 2009. It has a red top skin, yellow bottom skin, black ribs and red slider. I put 49 jumps on it before making the mistake of trying a friends Saber 2 150 and as you can guess I'm now looking to downsize. This canopy has never been cut away, has always been packed indoors on packing mats and is in perfect condition. I am willing to trade for a Saber 2 or Katana 150 that was built within the last 5 years and has under 200 jumps." How many jumps do I have?Birdshit & Fools Productions "Son, only two things fall from the sky." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skyjumpenfool 2 #5 March 18, 2010 I should have dug a little farther back into history. Yes, that is correct. 368 jumps, but, look at the poll numbers. Over 50 % guessed less than 100. We're getting a bit cynical, aren't we? When I read this add my first thought was…. How many jumps? I have to say, I was surprised to see this high a number.Birdshit & Fools Productions "Son, only two things fall from the sky." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might still be a very low number depending in skill (coaching), weight and currencyYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!

skyjumpenfool 2 #8 March 24, 2010 Situation 2 (from the gear reviews) "Pros: Sweet openings, sweet turns, sweet swoops, sweet everything! Cons: It costs money :( I started jumping a Stiletto 135 at 40 jumps loaded at 1.3:1. Soft openings and really quick turns were my favorite atributes about the canopy. It also had good shut-down power at the end of the flare. 9 times out of 10, I didn't have to take a step when I touched down after a little turf surfin'. At 160 jumps I snagged a Stiletto 107. With a wing loading around 1.8:1, I started having a little more fun. Harness turns are really responsive, toggle turns are smokin' fast, and the front riser pressure is low. This canopy also has a quick dynamic stall, so don't hang on to the rears for too long on your swoops. (My ass is still sore... haha) In conclusion, this is a sweet canopy, and the "spinetto" callsign isn't true." How many jumps do I have? ...and this time, no peaking!Birdshit & Fools Productions "Son, only two things fall from the sky." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
