BillyVance 34 #11 July 10, 2007 Go easy on him, he's still new. But Billy, you got to be careful flying on your back for too long. I did the same thing years ago when I had less than 100 jumps. Flew way too long, until I saw open canopies shoot past me.

FlyinDawg 0 #22 July 12, 2007 I wish I can jump more often unless I find my own best rig. It's still hard to find best rig. I can jump often with my own rig.
