Thanks for watching! Which audible altimeter are you jumping? *Get your Protrack 2 here: **bit.ly/2txlxsB*

[@ethanhuntmp]

I use my heartbeat as audible so far ;-)

[@SkydiveVibes]

@@ethanhuntmp you should get one. It is a safety element! Specially jumping in groups.

[@ethanhuntmp]

@@SkydiveVibes Well I am going to buy one... just really don't know which one yet... Some audible like Protrack2 or some 2in1 like Atlas or maybe some fancy one like VOG

[@SkydiveVibes]

@@ethanhuntmp let me know if you have any questions. ;)

[@MrSlarba77]

Protrack 2 of course! :) I just can't jump without audibles any more...

[@alanhewitt4492]

GREAT INFORMATIVE CHANNEL... L&B Protrack 2 bought it from SKYDIVE Dubai with an L&B Stella 18,000ft White face, GREAT ALTIMETER EASY TO READ COMFORTABLE TO WARE... ONE Comment.. The Quality of the Wrist Finger Mount stitching was quite poor had to get a RIGGER to re-stich the Mount... other than that great product... BUT wish I had bought the ARIS 2 ... Reason i was not confident that I could read the ARIS Display I WARE GLASS’S... Very Experienced Skydive loaned me her ARIS2... and I used both on a jump... was amazed at the clarity of display... ARIS 2 will be my next purchase... FYI... This L&B information education service is massively valuable.... allows myself to understand not only the features but how to use them.... Thank you....

[@stopspinskydiving]

It’s the one I use. It doesn’t come set from the factory to automatically come on. I have mine off to conserve battery. I always remember to power it up before the jump day starts. Another great video, 🐈!

[@ipKonfig]

I love that "Let's go!" part! so cute

[@SkydiveVibes]

Thanks! hahaha

[@tiger93rsl]

I'm in the market for an audible right now, love the equipment reviews.

[@SkydiveVibes]

Great I have a couple on my channel. Let me know if you have any questions.

[@KevinStumpf2010]

I bought the VOG after the review you did. Will be jumping it in March!

[@SkydiveVibes]

Super! You'll love it! It is a whole new experience!

[@jazzochannel]

I'm using the the pro-dytter. no LED screen to crack -> perfection

[@shrebus]

Cool Review thx alot, i use the Skydivings center ones, maybe one day i will buy my own helmet and audible altimeter. Have a great day.

[@SkydiveVibes]

Thanks Steve!

[@ricktaymimartinez2236]

Hey Catharine I did my 1st aff solo jump today. Super awesome. Thinking of getting a digital altimeter. The one I had on was reading 0 and I was still coming in for my base. Hopefully they let me use it as a student. Which one you recomend?🤙

[@Crbby97]

i got the optima 2 at christmas :) firstly jumoped it over new year in Portugal :D

[@SkydiveVibes]

Nice! What did you have before?

As Roman pointed out, I actually already made one. ;)

@@SkydiveVibes I can believe I missed it thanks!

[@kellerferenc]

Is it compatible with Macs ?

[@kserrine]

Yes, it works well with Paralog on my Mac

[@TinkXFD]

I’m still jumping an original Pro Trac. Vintage 1999.

[@SkydiveVibes]

Hahaha does it have different alarms that you can set?

[@TinkXFD]

Skydive Vibes It has three altitude based alarms. I also, somewhere deep in my old gear bag, an original Dytter.

[@ahmedsaleh3517]

Thanks Kate for video Should I buy all gears during AFF course?? So expensive at first or can I rent them? Here in Middle East Dubai so expensive About 3500$ just for AFF course . When the best time I have?? Greetings from Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 Thanks a lot

[@SkydiveVibes]

Thanks Ahmed. No, I don't recommend buying during AFF. Do the course then work towards your A license and you'll get to better know the type of jumper you are and the type of gear you need. ;)

[@calinutza33]

3500 USD ? For AFF Course ? That’s so fucking expensive ! I really can not explain this to myself ! Isn’t petrol cheaper there ? 😖😱🤭

[@tiger93rsl]

@@calinutza33 It's worth every dime!

[@calinutza33]

@@tiger93rsl I know ! I'm a Skydiver ! But paying 3500 $ for the AFF course it's just too expensive ! Not all people are Sheikh ! 😂

[@SkydiveVibes]

Is it for AFF or the full A license?

[@agnirum]

Eu uso o protrack 2 como principal e Brillant pepples como segundo

[@RogerThat1637]

The first Protrack could only log up to 119 seconds of freefall time per jump. Do you happen to know if the Protrack 2 can count more?

[@georgesand5907]

I wonder if this will fit a Tonfly 2X...

[@user-cp3wf2gp8w]

Hi, does the log book or any other feature on this Protrack device show a continuous clock and current altitude like on the Altitrack Digital Logbook Altimeter for the jump itself? So when you replay the jump on that device you can see your jump altitude you are at and the time in free fall. Or does Protrack 2 just give exit altitude, deployment altitude and time in free fall without the mentioned countdown of altitude.... Thank you. Nice review!

[@antoniojragliam9654]

Hello where can i order this item maam?and hm?

[@justinheartcarson]

Do the first commenters on your videos have to buy beer?

[@SkydiveVibes]

Hahaha good question. 🍻

[@liliyasgardenchannel8876]

Great review! Question: do you still get ear pain/clogged up ears during freefall? If so, how do you deal with it? That's one issue I keep having, even after doing the nose trick, and my ears take a while to normalize. Thanks in advance!♡

[@SkydiveVibes]

I do get those sometimes once under canopy. Do you do the nose trick while climbing up in the plane? I notice that I had pain when I was doing it before the jump. So now I endure it on the plane and simply do it if needed under canopy. But it could also be how your body works, we are all different. ;)

[@Mrjohri17]

Scuba diving has taught me how to deal with the pressure differences and it translates to jumping. The air spaces in your sinuses are expanding or being compressed due to the loss or gain of atmospheric pressure, some people hardly notice it and others will have discomfort, especially if you have had a cold or blocked nose. Heres what I do.. On the way up you are decreasing in pressure so regually swallow to gradually equalise. While under canopy you are now under an increased atmospheric pressure and this is when you can hold your nose and gently push to equalise. Gently is the key word there, you can do real damage if you over do it. Wiggling your jaw and streching your neck can also help.

[@liliyasgardenchannel8876]

@@Mrjohri17 thank you for sharing!

[@furiousferret3840]

Can i use the ProTrack 2 with my KISS helmet ?

[@kserrine]

Yes, but the USB port is blocked. It would have to be removed in order to put the USB cable in.

That is a good one still. ;)
