Sad news from my home DZ at Eisenach, Germany. Following a recent tandem incident, they closed temporarily and now have decided to stay closed permanently. It is my personal understanding, that the accident is not the main reason but rather the final brick, that lead them to this decision. Statement (in German) here: https://fallschirm-eisenach.de

Hi Jerome, downloading it right now :-) Thank you again!

Hi Jerome, in the ConnectIQ store both of your apps (Responsive and accurate Altimeter (barometric); Altimeter and Variometer) do not show the Epix2 as a compatible device. As it works so great with the Fenix 6, I am looking forward to using it on the Epic soon :-) To all others here: The app works great! Using it since it's early days Jerome is very responsive in taking feedback and integrating it into updates.

This thread has been quiet for some time now. Anyone able to update the list, especially in regards to sequential stuff; freely and wing suit?

blue skies Tom - you will be remembered by many! There will be a memorial jump on April 21st. Here is the link to the facebook event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/531397167231658/ vSCR No.94 Don't dream your life - live your dream!

From the DZs you mentioned, I only know Skydive San Marcos. Not being able to comment on the others, this is a dropzone which I happily would suggest to anyone who wants to start jumping. Generally - drive to all of them, talk to the People - especially the instructors - and make up your mind also based on the Impression they leave on you. enjoy the ride!

Yes, that's the one. M. vSCR No.94 Don't dream your life - live your dream!

Walter died on Saturday, February 17, during a BASE jump from the Sas Prodoi mountain in Italy. While BASE related, I'm posting this here as well as he was an avid wingsuit jumper as well. BSBD, M. vSCR No.94 Don't dream your life - live your dream!

I'm thankful to have known you and you will be dearly missed. We can only envy the place where you're now, as it will be a better place from now on. RIP Peanut. vSCR No.94 Don't dream your life - live your dream!

I try to describe the Setup as I am lacking a photo right now: Starting from the photo mjosparky posted, imagine that you run the canula from under the chin along one of your arms under the jumpsuit. You cut them about 1-2 cm (about 1 Inch) after they "emerged" at your wrist. This end will be connected to the tubes that are hanging from the aircrafts Oxygen System. To connect, you can use a bungee wher you stick the ends of both tubes in. When it is time to exit, you disconnet and either stuff the extra Inch back in the jumpsuit or let it "hang out". It doesn't really create a snagpoint. Personnally, I try to leave it connected as long as possible. Depending on the length of the hose that stays in the aircraft, I even leave it connected when on a floater Position. On Exit it just disconnects itself. (and Yes, that could be irritating other Jumpers, so tell them about your plan). I hope this made is clearer. If not send me a PM and I try to look up a photo of the Setup. vSCR No.94 Don't dream your life - live your dream!
