Welllll technically you don't "pay" for your skydive, you pay to get to the altitude that you want to skydive. slight difference.
So if that is the case then all forms of skydiving are "free", and once you are out of the door you can do what ever form you want.
The reason it is "free" is that we are not restricted to 1 axis. RW has just belly down. We have head up/head down/backflying and for those large individuals belly down at freefly speeds.
If you want to continue to freefly dont think about how much it costs! If you can afford it keep going, if you can't then stop whining and freeflying because your bringing us down.
dave
ps just think there are people who spend that kind of money to do RW! and will never be "free"

or go back to freakflying, who in their right mind would spend 14 grand in a freaking tunnel if he could roughly get 6000 rides in a plane from it!?
Where do you get to jump for $2.30?
$14000 ÷ 23 (jump cost) = 608 jumps, not 6000.
Also,
$14000 ÷ $800 (tunnel hour) = 17.5 freefly hours
17.5 tunnel hours = 1200 jumps or so
Hmmm...jumping is fun. But the tunnel sounds ok too, no?
Yeah but you can't fly canopy in the tunnel!! That is seriously the reason why I only have a few minutes of tunnel time under my belt!!
Edit: ALSO, I like the whole experience of skydives. I like paciking my rig and jurrying to get on the next load. I like the plane flight, and looking at the snow capped Rocky Mntns on the way to altitude. I like the visuals of spotty clouds an the Lz wayyyyy under foot! And most of all I loooooooooooove being OUTdoors!!! Not dissing tunnel goers (I had a blast the 2 times I went) but I'd rather spend the money on "skydiving".

That's because Harry knows what it really takes to beef up your freefly skills. Not jumps, not tunnel time, and not color coordinated gear... but meth, cheeseburgers, and anal beads. I've built up a stockpile to finish making it through the winter
Just don't do as I did and mix them all up i.e. smoke the anal beads while shoving a cheeseburger up your ass. You won't even know what to do with the meth at that point!

You take care of the cheeseburger and anal beads and I will take care of the meth

Mr. Bones...my whole work center just looked at me as I laughed out fukin loud. I can see it now. Harry in the back of his white Yukon, with children’s toys astray, when suddenly someone looks over and sees an old man, graying in some areas ( oh fuck yea) stuffing fecal covered anal beads in the pipe, while fisting a hot cheeseburger up his ass...as he falls out of the trunk at the wind tunnel parking lot at Raeford. Sick bastard...kids toys spilling everywhere….hahah!!!
