sangiro 26 #1 October 20, 2003 Heya all, There's a cool feature in the new Skydiver's Profile. Enter the size of your canopies, main and reserve, in ft^2. Enter your weight with gear in lbs. There's a converter to convert kg to lbs. When someone view your profile the wing load on your main and reserve will be displayed in brackets next to your canopies. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=user_profile_basic;Safe swoops Sangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kris 0 #2 October 20, 2003 Yeah...good luck getting the women to fill out that bit of info, HH.Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tinfoil 0 #3 October 22, 2003 No way I'm filling that out. Don't want a canopy Nazi complaining that I'm 0.06 over a 1 to 1 wingloading on my first parachute. “- - Sumo is the greatest of sports.

dragon2 2 #4 October 22, 2003 Hmm my profile gets interesting this way, since I crammed 2 rigs in the entry fields..... Maybe you could put in some more fields, for adding more rigs? There's got to be more people who jump at least 2 different rigs (or mains), ie for back-to-back, CF, BM... ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,485 #5 October 23, 2003 Quotegood luck getting the women to fill out that bit of info, HH. Um yeah. Quite true. Would that wingloading be before or after what I pretend breakfast weighed? Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

webracer 0 #7 October 23, 2003 I agree, setting up the profile for two rigs would be better, lots of folks have a pair at least, I know mine are quite different. Keep up the good work sangiro!Troy I am now free to exercise my downward mobility. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
