Ok, I'll bite. What's a WARMIE?


I tried to think of something cute but the beer is causing me to be slow on my feet! :S
Warmies are exactly what they sound like... warm clothes! Soft fuzzy fleece sweaters, turtlenecks, bounceproof turtlenecks, Raeford PC fleece lined denim jackets, etc.:)
Sorry I couldn't think of something more creative! :P

Ohhh, I thought it was slang for a certain item. Warm clothes, huh? Those aren't really on my wish list down here in FL. Short-shorts and tank tops on the other hand, NOW we're talkin'!

bounceproof turtlenecks



Not sure if that is a style or material, but damn I want one


>:(ALRIGHT PEOPLE, I HAVE PUT DOWN THE BEER... PLEASE FOCUS! Warmies make skydiving and all around activities at the DZ possible during these colder winter months.

And, bounceproof is a brand name... they make kick ass stuff and the name just kind of gives one confidence! If you've seen those tracking trousers (or Chuckie in them) you can agree with me there! www.cloud9skydiving.co.nz/bp.html

That's just wrong, girl... rub it in! I burnt my ass in the tanning bed today just so I could feel like I was in Florida! B|

OOOOHHHHH... I'm so jealous! We have a toy run tomorrow and it's going to be cold!!! Hopefully, Chuckie will get JPT's bike so I won't have to ride his fender! Not that I mind (when it's warm) but when it's cold it sucks! >:(

I went out tonight to look for chaps but couldn't find any. I'm half tempted to wear my old horsebackriding chaps! I did buy myself a new helmet, gloves, and a leather coat! Merry Christmas to me! :ph34r:

Here's what I've done/bought in the past:

coached jumps
cloud book (instead of looking up and saying, "nice clouds," they now know what kind of clouds they are)
wind tunnel time
jump suit
skydiving toys
rubber stamp men (for the log book)
videos
pro track software

Unfortunately, some of these larger presents, I've had to starting saving for months in advance. Being a student doesn't give you too much money to play around with. [:/]

I've got the Suunto Observer and I've heard of people using them for Altimeters in Lieu of an actual altimeter. All I can say about that is it does keep fairly good/accurate altitude but it's like trying to look at the readout of your protrack while in freefall. Nice watch but the alarm absolutely sucks, you can barely hear it when it goes off. It's no where near the level of a G-shock or even a $15 watch alarm.
