Looks cool, I have always wanted to do skydive one time before I die, however, my luck the shute wouldnt come out!

yeah but even if it doesn't open, you still would have gotten that chance to skydive before dying :D

I'm really looking forward to my first dive in January. It will be a tandem, of course; But, I still can't wait.

Thank god it wasn't a 3-way. That would just be awkward...

Do you have some type of meter or timing device from when you jump that lets you know when to pull?

I know nothing about diving, however, I know I must do it next year.

I have the altimeter "Altitrack".

Then i have a supplimental Audible i put in my helmet. I keep it set at 6500' 5500' and 4500' Gives you a different audible tone at each level. Course it doesnt work if the battery is dead or you forget to turn it on.

Then of course My Rig has an electronic device that will deploy my reserve should i forget to pull or pass out. It really does work too....Dino can vouch for that!

The cutter isnt reuseable and i have a used one hanging from the mirror of the eclipse to remind me of that.

Hmmmm? There doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the aircraft in the picture. What are you jumping out of it for?!?!?!? LOL! You'd have to throw my big ass out of that thing.
