Skydiving Gear List

• Open Face Helmet
  We have Cookie Fuel Hemets you can borrow. Find out your Cookie Fuel Helmet size now, and shoot us an email. Open Face helmet needs to be chincup free! The 02 mask needs to be able to hug your chin. To illustrate make sure if you have the chincup mount you get the chinstrap
• Ski Googles
  They can provide better UV protection, thermal comfort, less fogging and simply a better view.
• Wrist Altimeter Ares II
• Audible Altimeter Protrak II
• Winter Skydiving Gloves Akando Premium Winter Gloves
  Gloves that you are comfortable executing emergency procedures with
• Warm Jumpable Clothing
  Think Skiing attire, full body merino base layer, ski pants and expedition jacket

• No beard (recommended for seal of oxygen mask)

Recommended Wingloading .9 to 1.1

We are landing at 12'000 FT ASL. This is normally where we exit the plane. The air is really thin. We recommend a minimum 1.0 wing loading, preferably a little lower to stay on the safer side. As a rule of thumnb, a 190 “feels like a 103” to Chris, “feels like a 120” to Tommy up there. Calculate your exit weight, do the math and check in with us now (We’re checking in with everyone as well).

We can arrange rental gear for you, thanks to our sponsor Aerodyne.

HALO System

It consists of a belly mounted Oxygen O2 Bottle, a face mask compatible with most open face helmets (tonfly 2X and Cookie Fuel tested so far) and a rebreather hose. It only adds 5LBS to your exit weight.

Everything you see in this picture from the test jump is detailed below.

Added Links (when available), to get the idea, but similar items can be acquired in all price ranges, including in country, while we are in Thamel, Kathmandu, the backpacker’s shopping paradise. There are plenty of treking / camping stores near our accomodation on the first night. You may also find gear in Lukla and Namche Bazaar.
