CanuckInUSA 0 #42 October 6, 2004 QuoteI'm bringing my skydiving rig, so fingers crossed for blue skies over MI. Hopefully you will be using this skydiving rig for only some skydiving in MI and not jumping off of the New River Gorge Bridge with it? Yes people have successfully jumped that bridge with skydiving gear, but one only needs to watch Johnny Utah's Bridge Day safety video to realize that it isn't a good idea.

MikeJD 0 #44 October 6, 2004 Quote Hopefully you will be using this skydiving rig for only some skydiving in MI and not jumping off of the New River Gorge Bridge with it? Ooh, yes. Skydiving only - I wouldn't want to be getting my Spinletto 120 out below about 2,500'. I did jump an old Racer last year with a modified Raven 3 canopy, and that was fine. This time I've got a BASE-specific container and a nice, square, 7-cell 250 for the bridge. Thanks for your concern!
