Does anybody have in electronic form the Vodafone Live advertisement, in which some skydivers form a circle and has the title "we got the best view"? The adv was in print media Thanks
-
The same happened to me also and it was my 2nd cutaway. The best cure is to stow brake lines as the manufactures suggests
-
Unfortunately, there is no DZ in Crete. You may visit www.skydiving.gr for more information. Have a good one
-
Welcome to the sport!!!
-
If there is only one DZ in your country and you pay about 45 USD for a jump? ... then you wait till you go to Deland

As an instructor said to me on my first freefly coach jump.... 1.You get on the plane 2. You make noise on the plane 3. You exit 4. When you land you say... WAOW that was a wonderful head down LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

When I was jumping in a big busy DZ they told me to give an 8-10 delay from previous jump -
I have also made 4 S/L jumps but finally went for the AFF

=====================================LMAO

Yes you jump. I have done that mistake and I jumped. I was with my buddy in all freefall, waited for the dytter and his signal to break off and then I counted plus eyeballed to open. Dont think that I will forget my alti again!
-
Dont get stressed about yr performance. Nobody was a perfect skydiver from his first jump. Enjoy the freefall and try to keep your mind in what you have to do.

I was wearing a glow stick on the front of my helmet (so I could ready my altimeter everytime I was bringing it close to my face) and a flash light (it was a head mounded) that was fixed on the top of the helmet and was lightining the parachute. So the higher jumper could see lower's parachute. Good helmet to stick all that staff is Pro-tek due to the holes/openings that it has.

Yeah its normal! I believe that skydiving is like a balance. From one side its joy and from the other its fear. At the beggining the balance tilt more to the fear side. By the time that thing moves to joy side. In how many jumps that will happen its very personal. Defenetely will not happen from your 10th jump. Personally, I believe that after 40-50 jump you have less fear and more joy.

we have saying.... "one good masturbation is better than a bad f*@#" the reply to the above saying is ... "masturbation is good but with f*@# you meet new people (you socialize more)" and the final reply ... "with f*@# you meet new people but with masturbation you learn yourself in depth" Food for thought...

I have it in my left legstrap. A good advice is to sew it with one (max two) stitch so you will not loose it while making any maneuvres (flips, etc)
-
I prefer my visible (although I wear also an audible) since I can check altitude any time. Also during climp up I can check with fellow skydivers if it has correct reading.
-
I would like also to correct the name of the jumper... Adrian Nicholas (the previous was taken by the subtitles of the DVD) ... sorry Adrian
-
I dont think that you could land that think. Precisely I believe that you would land with injuries ever you was making a PLF
-
How many of you DON'T wear altimeters?

I just forgot ones mine. I was wearing an audible so opening altitude was easy to be calculated. I didnt like the feeling so I said that I will never forget it again. -
The DVD that I saw was a BBC/Discovery production

My first main was a Spectre 190 @ 1:1. Now I have a Spectre 170 and a Stiletto 170. I suggest you a Spectre as your first main
