Also bear in mind T-shirts/Sweat shirts can rise up even when initially well 'tucked in' and cover your handles/hackey, not good .CHOP WOOD COLLECT WATER.

Originally, about a year before purchase i wanted a PD stiletto preferring it over the original crossfire. However the crossfire2 was released onto the market and i decided to take a chance with one [ no demo ] having friend secure a reasonably good deal for me. Despite the the ' No Demo ' as stated 7 years on i'm still loving the thing

You demonstrated poor judgement when you described a CF2 as soggy and unresponsive when compared to your katana. i very much doubt you 'really' wringed out that sabre let alone swooped it to its full potential if at all. My guess is you simply paid for a few courses and decided it was time for a swoop machine which for your information a sabre2 is, well in skilled hands it most definately is. .CHOP WOOD COLLECT WATER.

I'm a another big fan of the crossfire2. I've been jumping mine for 7 years now. Slow learner me, so i've still not maxed it out despite its bus like,slugglish flying characteristics .That said i have alot of fun .CHOP WOOD COLLECT WATER.

What freefly friendly container (and options) to invest in?
trigger replied to npgraphicdesign's topic in Gear and Rigging
Fair one, on the reserve ripcord, but until several months ago i'd never had cause to use my pillow type ripcord, so when exactly does it become familiar. As for the stainless vs nickel, forgive me i wasn't aware of any issues, suprised it hasn't been outlawed. .CHOP WOOD COLLECT WATER. -

trigger replied to npgraphicdesign's topic in Gear and Rigging
Stainless steel hardware is simply a look good option imo. Articulation, i.e hip rings, pillow reserve ripcord and all important freefly mod [elastic between leg straps]. are imo options worth considering. .CHOP WOOD COLLECT WATER. -
Cocking your pilot chute (when?)

Cocking your pilot chute (when?)
trigger replied to stinkyho's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I cock the pilot chute before bagging the main. Bag main,stow line and close the container, then a sharp yank of the pilot chute bridle so to inflate pilot chute prior to folding the pilot chute and 'S'ing the bridle and stowing in BOC. Also i check the window on my bridle for 'green' = go V3 Mirage was 'blue' for go. White in window = no go .CHOP WOOD COLLECT WATER. -

Poor Tracking Skills in Europe ??
trigger replied to kkeenan's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
You seem to be assuming alot about the european skill set for a 50 jump over what, 3years wonder. Obviously not been out much lately have we now. .CHOP WOOD COLLECT WATER. -
I'd go used for now and maybe look towards shiny new in say 200 jumps time. Rig wise, i think the overwhelming majority of 'new' kit is excellent tho i presently jump a V3 and can vouch for their excellent customer care. .CHOP WOOD COLLECT WATER.
