Brumby 0 #27 May 31, 2005 One thing just to add to my initial comment which i should have mentioned in the first place! I packed this particular rig on the day of my malfunction so in turn cleared it safe to jump. Not sure if other DZ's worldwide are the same but at my local dz ppl who pack have to carry out 4 certain check stages. Check stage 4 being that you have looked over the full container etc and see it as suitable to be jumped safely. In my initial post i did critisise the compatability of the canopy & container! I should not have done so as i was the person who did clear it to be jumped! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

monkycndo 0 #29 June 3, 2005 Brian Germain has a way of packing the PC that in case of a premature deployment, the bridle pulls the PC out instead of bunching it in the BOC. It is pretty clear on his site. I went over it with him during his canopy skills course and learned a bit more. Not afraid of a horseshoe any more. www.bigairsportz.com/pilot-chute.php Monkeyboy50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
