*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE *** Only if you say "please". Does anyone have experience with putting first jumpers out on square parachutes? I'd be interested in information about how rigs should be set up, and what the pitfalls are in training students to use them.

I believe that most of the rigs are from Strong, with Mighty Mak mains and 26' LOPO reserves. FFI: Marty Jones, Antioch Parachute Center, (415)757-9957
