WOW, thats more than even the factory charges I charge $50. The same as any other rig. I would look around for another rigger or ask the one you have to contact the factory to learn how they pack. They will teach you for free. $80 Australian that is... and since it was a new to me rig and I cleaned the container it may have included inspection and assembly.. i'll ask around though..
-
My rigger doesn't exactly like em but he'll pack it Although it costs me $80 as apposed to $50 for a repack but ahh well.. such is life. Racer is my first rig as well.. Bought it about 2 months ago. There's a fair bit of 'that damn velcro' but as long as you get it changed there's nothing wrong with them

ahahahaha! to funny dude my coffee pots the same! sept i use rather large cups so it turns there 12 'cups' into about 4 of mine

Dude what on earth are you one about? I don't personally earn money for the seconds of freefall time I have...... and i'm pretty sure you don't either.......
-
Finally a nother normal person!! The first sip of coffee in the morning gives me a LITTLE bit of a buz but after that just makes me more and more tired!! Especially late at night.. Altough chocolate coated coffee beans keep me awake good

This is how I was tought and it makes it a WHOLE lot easier

aahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! that'd be so wrong!

Are they F111 canopies? I'm not really familiar with either of them. I learnt to flat pack student gear when on student status with F111 canopies but zp tends to slide around alot. I tried flat packing my zp main and it didn't really work to well. Gave up in the end although I don't doubt it's possible.

ahhhhhhh!!!! My eye's my eye's!

Dude at the dz has the original handheld one you play on tv. Endless hours of amusment!
-
Only in Australia would a whole team of people hook-up there canopies in the wrong direction of purpose! I love this country!
-
From what I understand the early ones were but I know a dude that has a newer one that is not.. just a normal reserve ripcord and throwaway pc.

There's acutally a backwards crew award here in Australia I beleive.

My rig has its own room Well actually its the spare room but no one uses it.. I just leave it in its gear bag.. but if anyone ever stoll it i swear I would track them down.. someway.. somehow...
-
I'm on the floor and I can't stop laughing... I just got my sister to eat one of my toe nails for 10 bucks!! So what has everyone else eaten/done for money that was enormously funny to others!
-
I would be perfectly happy.. Infact its happened to me. Bought my rig and got it repacked staight away. Got it back the next week with half the velcro replaced. $30 more ontop of the price of a repack? bounce because of poorly maintained gear? you choose
-
Is there any specific reason why they MPAAD has the closing loop going directly through the unit? Any reason why this is better or worse? Seems like its just differnt for the sake of being 'NEW AND DIFFERENT' to the cypress. Possibly the easyest way to capture a market rather then making a clone of the cypress.... The cypress can prettymuch be put into any type of rig on the market as they cutters and small and can be moved anywhere. The fact that the unit is the cutter to me seems like it may limit itself from being put into some rigs.. ie.. it may not work well in a racer..
-
Take this with an ENORMOUSE grain of salt but what I HEARD..... is that a zp pc is similar to a bungy pilot chute in that at low speeds it jumps around in the wind where as an f111 pc does not as the air can go through it. I'm unsure how true this is but at the time is seemed to make sence.... Once again really big grain of salt (ie. one that will only fit in your garage )
-
Where on earth did you ever read a comment like that??!?! Never really thought about insurance really.. hmm.. ahh well
-
The only one I can think of is water landings. When people chop to high.... Although that in no way effects everyjump

'In 1915 on the 25th of April Far away across the sea our soldiers fought so bravely in a place called Galipolie These soldiers were the anzacs who fought for you and me They gave there lives all fighting so that we could all be free Lest we forget' ^A poem I learnt in primary school Basically its the day we honor all of our war vertans, notably the Anzacs.
