Woaahh now, let me clarify some things. No, I'm not in a rush to do this jump. My theoretical plan is to do a couple of d-bag and SL jumps from an object that's a little taller and see how I feel with my current techniques. What I would like to know is if anybody out there has any 1st hand experience with jumps in this height range and can impart any "special" or "unconventional" or "stupidly obvious" techniques that might be useful to know in preparation for said jump I.E. somebody describe their technique for a stupid low SL (or other deployment method), and I can give it a wirl on a 150' or 300' or 1000' object to see how I feel about it.
The
static line method that I would use would be a simple perlon cord tied around object, one "large" loop of 80 lb break tape, one "small" loop, both connected to the perlon anchor and to a quick link, quick link attached to the end of my bridle, 48" PC (for what its worth) also on the end of the bridle. I would consider tying a knot about half way down my bridle and connecting my SL there as well, but would like input on that thechnique from others as this seems like a good way to harm my bridle. So if anybody was wondering, yes, I know how to SL.
My gear would either be a troll dw 245 mdv or a zp blackjack 260 in any of a variety of containers that I have access to. I feel better about using a troll because of the shorter
lines. I weigh about 165lbs. my previous lowest is a Sl from 170' (yeah, I know, not very low).
The reason I think that there may be more to know about this is the fact that there is a plethora of techniques for just about any other kind of jump I.E.
terminal,
subterminal slider up, slider down, sub 200' FF etc., but my knowledge of these way-low jumps is pretty limited. I've only done a handful under 200'.
so anyways, can anybody help me out?
