I have attached some pics of me putting the lines on my rig at the NZ Aerosports Factory when I visited New Zealand, Thanks for the canopy Jyro! and thanks also to Parachutes Australia for my TalonFS rig and Vigil Aero for donating an AAD.

I would also like to thank Cookie Composites for my Ozone helmet, L&B for the Altitrack and Optima and Deepseed for making my custom suit, stay tuned for that!

I went to the Parachutes Australia factory in Sydney and checked out how they make containers. It was a great experience and I would like to thank Greg,Adam, Karen and Mike for all their help and supplying me with this rig. AWESOME!

Since I got back into jumping the skydive industry has been bloody fantastic. Thank you also to you guys here on dz.com for all the advice over the last 10 mths, its been great.

Get Down!

Pretty schweet, dude.

So, chat it up a bit. What modifications were made to the rig and/or jumsuit to assist you with your body position? I see what looks like a web (like a stubby wingsuit) between your upper legs, izat so? Does the wind resistance on that web help push your legs back? Sure seems to help your track! Also looks like you have some extra structure to your leg straps. Something to hold up the legs on landing?

Any other mods?

All in all looked like a pretty smooth skydive. The most stressful part of the whole thing looked like the 270 line twist your camera guy had on deployment!
