Kris 0 #30 December 2, 2002 4 (days off from work):3:0 Friday & yesterday was windy as hell so I was only able to get 3 in after 1pm today. It was still pretty bumpy but manageable. I also got to put some jumps on my new Cazer PC with the 9' bridle for use with my future bird-man suit. The first couple of jumps were pretty odd. I don't know if it was the length of the bridle or what but I can now feel when the bridle gets to line-stretch right as it yanks the pin and before it pulls the bag. It's this really weird "pop" feeling my rig makes now right before the bag takes off. Oh well, at least I know it works.Now I just need to get my main tray cut-down a bit on my next repack and I'm all set.

indyz 1 #34 December 2, 2002 I forgot their names. I suck. Blonde girl who wears a half-shell Protec covered in stickers and her fiance. They are both members of the SIU club. I've seen them around Archway a couple of times, but never really talked to them until Friday. Update: Just checked the SIU club's web site. The fiance is named Amir. Still can't remember the girl's name. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GrumpySmurf 0 #39 December 2, 2002 *heh* As long as it wasn't you, I wouldn't want crossing paths with a fellow jumper to start on the wrong foot. He was trying to tail me after he noticed I had a radar detector - let's just say I wasn't polite in the stunt I pulled to force him ahead of me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RevJim 0 #40 December 2, 2002 You slam on the brakes too? Welcome to my world! Nope, no personalized plate at the moment. Had one the said "EARGASM" when I owned a custom stereo install shop, but those are in here, not on a car. I plan on getting "Rev" plates, eventually, but they will be WI plates!

Also ordered a high intensity discharge Xenon light retro fit kit for the car, between that and the set of Michelin Pilot Alpins for the 'Heap' for Winter - there goes any chance of buying a Vengence to play with come spring The joys of car ownership - I think life was simpler when I had to walk everywhere.

GrumpySmurf 0 #43 December 2, 2002 Quote "EARGASM" I always liked plates that made sense and had a sense of humor to them. Quote You slam on the brakes too? Nah - not that bad, especially since they have that 'No fault' insurance thing here - found someone up ahead of me doing 5 over in the right lane, buzzed past them, jumped back into the right lane and matched pace with them, about 20 feet ahead - since the guy tailing me tried to keep up pace - he was forced to either fall back behind the guy just behind me, or pass me - I wasn't giving him enough room between myself and the 'innocent' behind me for him to slip back in behind me. So he passed me and I tailed him instead Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #48 December 2, 2002 $600 (sunk into my truck this weekend):8:0 See the truck thread to hear about my great truck fun...got some good jumps in this weekend, though, so that was nice.
