peckerhead 0 #1 February 21, 2006 Why do swoopers loosen their chest straps after they open? It makes it easier for the para-medics to remove the harness. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diablopilot 2 #3 February 21, 2006 Yeah, not bad. Why do other jumpers sit by the pond and watch swoopers land? They wish they could. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACMESkydiver 0 #4 February 21, 2006 QuoteYeah, not bad. Why do other jumpers sit by the pond and watch swoopers land? They wish they could. Uggggh. That was just wayyyyy too lame! Well, it isn't a 'joke' per se, but I do have a swooper sig line for a friend who's all busted up right now. Edit to add: Ok, ok: Why do swoopers wear baseball hats? -To hide their lobotomy scars. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

diablopilot 2 #5 February 21, 2006 Wasn't meant to be a joke really. With as small as this sport is and how the general public looks at us, I figure being a little more supportive of peoples interests in different disiplines would be more appropriate. Or I might just be a jerk.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLFXpert 0 #13 February 21, 2006 QuoteWhy do other jumpers sit by the pond and watch swoopers land? They wish they could. It's true, It's true. I don't jump nearly often enough to probably ever get to the point of swooping. I wish, though,(and I know it's been done) there was a "tandem swoop" for us wannabees b/c it just looks like such a fun ride! But, it DOES get me hot watching my hunny swoop---that look on his face, his form, his preciseness.....Mmmmmmm, brb I should note, however, I had no idea what swooping was or had ever seen him do it when we met (met him just after I graduated AFF and really had no idea what anything was at that point)...so that was not the original draw. The original draw was he was so amazingly sweet and thoughtful (sorry to you hunny), but it was only later I discovered how flippin HOT it was to watch him swoop his canopy.Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
