Re: [TreeRat] 300' free stander
Awesome!!

Just curious about a few details:

What size PC? What kind of delay?

How did you know where the 200' mark was?

What does the second S stand for in A.S.S.?

Right PC for the jump, IMHO.

2 second delay from 300 feet
in my opinion would be deep!!

On my 3rd or 4th jump from a
300' freestander I took 1.5 and
was told that was "sporting" by
an experienced guy.

As for the A.S.S., I get it, you've
jumped 1 antenna & 2 spans Smile

To bad your woman would not let you come out and play saturday night, you could have watched me go stowed off of that antenna with a 42 in pilot chute.. loves me some velcro

no. a 2 sec would be ... "one one thousand, two one thousand" pitch
yours sounds like a 1 sec.
