Vertifly 0 #1 September 21, 2003 If you are rated to open at the following altitudes... The next time you do a skydive, try this if you haven't already. (1) Plan on settling out to pull at about 4000 feet. (2) Put your altimeter up so that you can see it while falling flat (but just off to the side). (3) Look at the HORIZON and not the ground. (4) Keep stairing at the horizon without looking down and suck it down to about 3000 feet. (5) Check air, wave off, pull, etc., etc. It is kindof a bizarre sensation - you'll see. If you are brave, take it down to 2500 because it's even better. Report back if you try it. BE SAFE ABOUT IT TOO! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
callahan 0 #2 September 24, 2003 You never know what you might see out there . Things could get messed up and you might have to keep tracking or dump right away if someone opens up below you . I'd rather not try this unless I do a higher hop n pop and no one else is out there . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hookitt 1 #3 September 24, 2003 That sounds fun! What made you think of that? To do that you must jump from a plane, there fore, it could be dangerous. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not really that low. [grumpy old man voice] Back in my day, we never pulled til the needle was in the red, and we liked it, in fact we loved it, because we were stupid and didn't know any better...[/grumpy old man voice].People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
