Baksteen 84 #101 October 30, 2013 HydroGuy If I ever met a crew dawg that I really really liked, I'd loan them the cash to make their rig freefly friendly so they could do freefly jumps...it's the least I could do to help a friend. Don't worry... We've got all that stuff hanging out of our rigs just to scare the crap out of the freeflyers."That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattjw916 2 #102 October 30, 2013 I think some of the CReW rigs are actually older than some of the freeflyers... NSCR-2376, SCR-15080 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baksteen 84 #103 October 31, 2013 That goes without saying. CReW-dogs, and even puppies like myself, generally own rigs which can only stay closed for three seconds. That is because we know how to perform a stable exit. Therefore we can pull well within those three seconds instead of having to flail around for 8000 ft "on every axis" before having sorted out our body position. Fact of the matter is, we don't need that new-fangled freeflail friendly gear. The basics work just fine for us.

GooniesKid 0 #106 November 8, 2013 skymama I wasn't attacking you, I was making a joke. I could just see you standing in a dark corner at the dz saying to the newbies, "psstt...come here. Wanna go really fast? I'll show you some fun..." BTW, don't call me Honey again. And i'd be one of those to probably take Atticus on his offer, LOL!
