Abedy 0 #1 July 2, 2012 Many thanks to Namo who designed the wonderful logo (see link below) for freifallvergnügen.de - the first school of tandem instruction for skydiving ducks. Which - inevitably - also makes me a skydiving duck, or drake, to be correct. I'm the duck in blue, as to be seen here. To attract more ducks I had this beautiful rear window ad made by an advertising business and intend to sport it for quite some time. The sky is not the limit. The ground is.

wmw999 2,149 #2 July 2, 2012 Not the first skydiving duck (but this joke goes way back). Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Born2Late 0 #5 July 3, 2012 I thought that artwork looked familiar. I saw it randomly cycled a day or so ago in the photo section. Holy Crap!! Carsten. That thing looks big enough to hold a VW in it?! That has got to be the biggest tandem rig I've ever seen. Are you exceptionally small of stature?

Abedy 0 #6 July 3, 2012 I think the rig just appears to be huge. I'm 1,85 m (6'1") and the rig is "L" with a 372 main and a 372 reserve. Weighs about 22 kg (48#) I suspect it just appears a little spacious on the photos. I just swung it on my back and had some photos taken before jumping started - wanted to have it photographed in "virgin" state and due to this forgot to adjust the main lift web so the rig sits a little low. I attached 3 pics with an identical rig (same manufacturer, same canopies, just different colours, but also brand new) I will have someone take new pics, not that anyone thinks the rig is really thaaat big The sky is not the limit.

Yeah, the five of us out there could hold our own boogie in Anaheim or some other duck-associated place. BTW, my duck also has a FB page, under Jill Canard. If more people 'like' it I can start putting more photos in it, including the fun dz ones. But you have to understand, mental illness is like cholesterol. There is the good kind and the bad.

Born2Late 0 #10 July 4, 2012 They look bigger than the American rigs I'm used to seeing. You're 6'1"? I'm only 69". That thing would be hanging halfway down my thighs . Go get 'em, killah. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
