    Chest strap

    Hi. Should all chest straps have a fold at one end to prevent them slipping out the buckle? Poorly described but hopefully you know what I mean...
  3. Is there a point where having a light wing loading becomes a problem where the only objective is a nice soft landing?
  4. Well it's back to 0 and it did indeed rain
  5. Instead of a day later I should have put "later in the day" the only thing that stands out in my mind was a rise in temperature. It was out of direct sun light so is it plausable for the pressure change in an ~4-6 hour period to relate to a 190ft difference?
  6. I baught a recently serviced second hand alti 2, it arrived reading 11,500ft so I reset it (and it was very stiff because of the o-ring) then a day later its reading 190ft... So my two queries are about the o-ring, I remember during my training it was veery easy to adjust the dial and the altimeters are the same model... and the movement of the dial keeping in mind the unit hasn't been touched and my house hasn't risen almost 200ft!
  7. Really? How's that worked out?
  8. Good, not good or entirely personal preference?
  9. What counts as "stored correctly"
  10. I'm considering buying a canopy with very low jump numbers that's been left unused for years, my question is does leaving it for such a long time pose a safety or performance issue? We're talking upto 6 years left in a bag in a loft (zp fabric). Anything I should be aware of?
  11. Is there any reason I cant buy a main (say 170) and a reserve (say 150) and when I'm ready to downsize simply use the 150 as the main and have the 'old' main packed as the reserve? Is there a fundemental difference between a main and reserve?
