[Doc]

and do a nice relaxing dive all in one shot?

Can it be a Shark Dive?

Maybe it will.

Tried this? Helicopter diving an extreme sport

should I use split fins or force fins....

Skydiving with fins would be an interesting change.

 

[ZzzKing]

I didn't think it would go the split vs force fin route...I was thinking it'd be more of a "do you use your OMS rig or the Oceanic when you bail out?"..because we all know integrated weight is important for free falling

I've never jumped out of an airplane so I'm no expert but couldn't you just dump your integrated weight pockets and just float to the ground?

Actually, can it be a balloon jump? I only ask because a balloon (especially a hybrid helium/hot air type) could have the required endurance at altitude for you to off-gas the slow compartments to such an extent that it *would* affect your deco planning (especially considering the HALO jump's short descent-from-altitude time).

By the way, you *were* planning to dive a CCR, eh? Open-circuit scuba is just too bulky to get good bottom time on a rig light enough for a decent sport canopy.

yeah.. but such decisions.... do I put on my Split Fins or the Force fins?

 

[seaducer]

Duh! You use split fins. Because of the "propeller effect".

Starting to wonder about some of you guys...

If you'll notice, in the above pic, some of the jumpers are using FORCE FINS...



When I dive out of an airplane, I always wear my "Batman Dive hood".

why not just dive with a "Propeller Beanie" instead of a parachute?

Wouldn't that effectively be a hanging? :biggrin:
