freakshow 0 #6 October 17, 2002 I've been looking forward to it all week I keep seeing the previews. The guys in the commercials sure look like there "working" hard. B.L. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnny1488 1 #7 October 17, 2002 yes tonight its Johnny "love" Skinner and some other ranch freefly freaks trying to build a 10 way I think. I have some hillarious behind the scenes footage. If I knew how to get it from a tape to my computer I would. Ice T chickens out on jumping and tries to fit in on the dropzone. Funny stuff. Check it out.

seedy 0 #19 October 17, 2002 Quote Holy scary shit low as hell cutaway on there! Was that as low as it seemed or have I had too much beer? They said 800'. Methinks that's a tad low. I intend to live forever -- so far, so good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dumpster 0 #20 October 17, 2002 Methinks that was a non-rsl cutaway, too- But I'm not so sure-- Crazy low!!!!!! Ice-T chatted us up good! WooHoo! Easy Does It Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hooked 0 #21 October 17, 2002 That was some great coverage! I could feel the cold air at the open door through the TV. The collision wasn't so great. That footage was shocking and sad. What a rush it must be to freefly, or as they said 'vertical skydiving'. Thanks for letting us know it was on TVJ -------------------------------------- Sometimes we're just being Humans.....But we're always Human Beings.

Marz 0 #22 October 17, 2002 QuoteThanks for the tip. Hard to believe that guy flew thru that other canopy and didn't see it in time to avoid! Steve Man, whoever that was handled it relatively politely too!!! One bleeped out "muterfu@#$r" and that's it! I think I would have found thet guy and made him swallow my cutaway handle after i had "driven" into him the point of canopy avoidance maneuvres with my foot up his ass. But then again, I remember one guys words to me when I innocently asked him about landing patterns at the Ranch after showing up for the week-end (I'm canadian and polite rembember). He said, "oh, it's a left hand pattern, and it looks like there's no wind so people will probably be landing towards the mountain, but hell, welcome to New York, and save your own ass...." _________________________________________ Did I just kill another thread?

weegegirl 2 #25 October 17, 2002 Ice-T is an idiot. There was some good footage in there - that chop at 800 was sweet to watch. But Ice-T needs to get a life. "Skydiving not for wimps." We almost had to turn the volume down. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
