That's quite an epistemological theory you've got there. How would you prove it? word of the day............epistemological -
Why do these forums allways become slagging matches?

I have my own opinions and have asked for the opinions and advice of my instructors. Which i have listened to and taken on board.I have posted for some more advice not because of a lack of confidence or ability but because there are so many differing opinions. Like i stated I have the CH1 and CH2 qualifications so, yes, i can stand up my landings fly my canopy and land in an area within ten metres of target. The reasons I am downsizing are I have become bored with the spectre, I have lost some weight and the great deal i got on my new rig. I should point out that the Safire2 came as part of a whole new system i didn't just go out and buy a smaller canopy. I am tempted by the idea that somebody mentioned of selling the safire2 149 and going for something like a sabre2 170. I would then have to stick with my old container. I am going to do a five day canopy course in the new year so i think i will leave it until then. Thanks for the advice.

I wonder if i could get some advice, I have 157 jumps,most of the last 80 on my spectre170 I have just had a bargin new rig come up with a new safire2 149. I have bought it because it was just too good a deal to miss. I have 15 or so jumps on a rental sabre2 170. Do the more experienced amongst us think i can start jumping my new canopy now or wait? If so how long? I have the basic canopy handling certificates and i have my head screwed on the right way. i am 11st thats 154lbs without my rig. Thanks in advance.
