jumpy 0 #26 March 20, 2003 I've had the little strip attacked to the zip on my jumper beat the living shit out of my neck. Don't wear that jumper jumping anymore and it came out from under my jumpsuit! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dreamsville 0 #27 March 20, 2003 Now that our DZ and others include free-fly in the student program (our AFP is now 18 jumps with one JM on each one; it was 15 when I did it), that velcro riser cover stuff had to be sidelined. When I was head down last year and my riser cover had cracked, it was most unnerving to see the toggle floating in the wind in free-fall. Grabbed the risers later and fixed it. Tuck flaps for bridles are also a great idea, since they are a better safeguard against the thing coming out prematurely. Some free-flyers also prefer soft reserve handles because they are afraid of someone/something catching on a D handle. |I don't drink during the day, so I don't know what it is about this airline.
