Skyhook RSL snag on door handle, at pin cover flap
TonyJ replied to pchapman's topic in Gear and Rigging
i use to want a skyhook, but after thinking about this video, ill pass... i want 2 seperate systems, but i will keep my rsl... i just dont want the collins laynard.... tony -
what main are you jumping? are you sure you know what a soft opening is? the reason i ask is, i use to have a canopy.. it slammed open all the time, then after opening i had to slide the leg straps down to make the pain from the opening less...i thought this was normal... then i bought a spectre..... no pain... same rig....

appears to be very minor damage.. air bag deployments are violent, loud...people have been killed by the bags... its much better to repair the bumper fascia, rad, hood...etc... then for the bags to go off for a minor accident and have to replace the bags and the dash... which might make it a total.... also some models have impact sensors in the front along with the control module and some have a control module only.... i believe yours only has an air bag module... the sensor monitors crash frequency... i met a guy at school who used a cordless impact to remove the module and set off both bags just from the vibration.... tony

So I thought my sabre2 170 was starting need a reline...
TonyJ replied to hackish's topic in Gear and Rigging
so when you lay the canopy out, flat pack style, wouldnt it be easy to see 6" of differential? tony -

..."The use of Scotchgard® brand fabric protector has become commonplace in recent years. This fabric treatment seals the pores of the fabric against dirt and other stains. Scotchgard® is NOT a magical “silver bullet” against dirt. However, it has shown good results in keeping lighter colored fabric cleaner longer under normal use. Grinding in on grass or asphalt or other heavy abuse will still stain and/or damage the rig materials. Scotchgard® is not harmful to today’s container fabrics such as para-pak and Cordura®. There are currently several Scotchgard® formulas. The standard fabric and upholstery formula is in the RED CAN [Figure A]. Do not use the rug and carpet formula in the blue can. After the rig is completely dry, hang it in a well ventilated location. FOLLOWING THE DIRECTIONS ON THE CAN, apply the protector to the entire OUTER SURFACE of the rig. For those areas such as the inside of the leg pads, backpad, and bottom of the main container, and light colored panels such as white, etc., apply a second coat after the first has dried. Do not intentionally spray the hardware, housings, and clear vinyl CYPRES® window. After the rig has dried, it may then be reassembled and placed back into service." From the Riggers handbook.... dont think its a uv, but it is a fabric treatment...tony

so far so good, hasnt happened since the procedure.... thanks tony

wow, at least he used good judgement about not going near the natural pace maker... i was worried about this myself.... cant believe all that happened..... the first one was so easy for you... i guess the bata blockers for life is better than a pace maker.... i bet he was freaking out for 4 hours... sorry it went so bad.... thanks for the update... tony

i ordered a custom rig, mlw was too long, scared me when the chest strap slammed my chin on opening. i keep it real tight.. i called and said i need the chest strap moved down... they said no you need the mlw shorter... took pictures with the rig on and it came back with the proper fit....tony

well i have found the problem, again its my dell monitor card slot.... i went into info on the cx7 and it said 4 gigs.... reformatted in in the camera and it said 8 gigs... put it in the card slot of my monitor and it says " not formatted" after many hours of searching i found this on wiki web site... Note: the card reader on this monitor does not support Sony Memory Stick Pro or Pro Duo cards without the use of an adaptor (Sony 8Gb memory sticks duo are not recognized). SDHC is not supported. Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dell_2407WFP" used another card reader and it sees all 8 gigs... thaks for all the help...tony
-
if you could check and see if it is formatted in ntfs, that would be helpful... i cannot get it to give the option to format it in ntfs... even after doing the online tutorials...thanks tony
-
i have an 8 gig memory stick, xp only sees 4 gigs... does the cx7 use all 8 gigs? Its formatted in fat 32... i have about 55 minutes on sd hq... does this sound about right for 8 gigs? thanks tony
-
keep us updated on it... thanks tony

they told me that some people have to have it done twice... were they able to stimulate the event and stop it? they also said you will have some wierd things happen after the the ablation for about a month... i just went to the last cardo. follow up, she asked me if i had any flutter...none... post what your doc says... interesting....tony
-
Glad to hear it went well... i jumped 4 days after mine.... Dr said it was ok..... But had to wait at least 2 days min... i was having trouble walking for 2 days.... later tony
-
they told me i would have to stay, but they let me go 5 hours after it.... they just want to make sure no bleeding where the port is.... they went up both sides on me but most of the work was done on the right side.... i went to jfk in west palm, fl... good luck, tony
-
i just had it done last month. mine was 270bpm but never happened during jumping... at work and out to eat.... the only way mine was stopped was with a shot.. the ablation was easy for me.. total time in the electro lab was 20 minutes, i was mostly out during the op... good thing i had insurance cause the bills are rolling in... they let me go after 4 hours of laying still and 1 hour of walking around...just glad i didnt have to spend the night... they were able to stimulate mine during the procedure... i could feel it beating like crazy but then it was back to normal... you are sore for acouple of days... where the port was put in... hope this helps tony the toprol i was on made me feel wierd and stoped it... also my cardo said splashing cold water on the neck and face might get it back into rythm... dont know if it works.....

mine was purchased new... looks like 22 x 29.5 measuring a normal rect... tony

couldn't find the first post, it came back after 1 1/2 years.. alittle slower this time.. heart rate was 270.. another trip to the er... scheduled the ablation at jfk medical center... the were able to duplicate it with the cat., burnt it open and it slowed back down... wasnt as bad as i thought it would be... thanks for all the previous advice...tony

i would call the insurance company, not the agent.... seems his liability would come into play in this? tony

tipping for recovered chopped canopy
TonyJ replied to bigbearfng's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
yup, i think it was my canopy. i went back out that night with a ladder and still couldnt find any sight of it... it was a small price to pay for a canopy. i knew if it was not found on sunday, it wouldnt have been found... best money i have ever spent... i was so cut up from the crap we call woods in florida....thanks again tony -
yea, its in my card reader on my monitor.....i used another card reader and it went perfectly...thanks tony update: i didnt format the card in the computer, i formatted in in the camera..this was causing my problem....after i formatted it in the computer then the camera it works...thanks tony
