jtval 0 #51 March 15, 2004 Quoteactually higher acceleration tends to extend time, so while it was about 45 seconds for her, it was hours for the rest of us. the question was how long did the jump last, not how long it seemed to us 3 nanoseconds is about rightMy photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What were you doing to be going that fast? Aren't you a newbie? Also, how tall are you? What is your body mass like? (You don't have to answer that if you don't want to.)

Hope it all works out for ya and you get to move back to the most awesome state in the country......When you make it down to Tampa, I'll hook you up with a CReW instructor at ZHills if you want...and you can get a demo Lightning from PD or borrow a canopy from one of the CReWDogs out there... What size canopy do you jump now? The "appropriate" CRW canopy for you would be a Lightning 126 based on your weight...but might be a bit small if you're not used to jumping canopies that small.

RkyMtnHigh 0 #68 March 16, 2004 QuoteQuoteYou'd freefly really well with Kreg! If you haven't already! He was the first freeflier at Gold Coast and would love to jump with you! I'm not really into FF right now...dunno it's just not my preference. Hey, but if you do see me at any other boogies, please let me know who you are, so we can do a jump together, OK? I will eventually get a rig for FF (at the ned of the year) and work on my speed! See you around, sista! ______________________ Not sure what "drives" one to either RW or FF, but Riddler knew I would be on the "darkside" from L1! and he was right! Get just a taste of it...try it, you'll love it! If you think RW is the only discipline of comradity and group jumps, think again. We have fun too! See ya soon! It's not a "race" or about speed, it's about enjoying our adult playground in the sky! _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My first few hundred jumps were all RW and hop&pops(small cessna DZ, I got free jumps when they were tossing students at 3500-5500)...then I started freeflying...thought I wouldn't want to do anything else...then I got into CReW...thought..well, nothing besides freeflying and CReW....then wingsuit....then......there's soooooo many cool things in this sport...now I'm actually finding myself drawn to 4way a little bit..
