quade 3 #1 May 22, 2002 One came off a jumper I was shooting the other day and I managed to slide over fast enough not to catch it in the face. It came off of the left hand of the third jumper from the left.quadehttp://futurecam.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hobbes4star 0 #11 May 22, 2002 that is cool how you posted the pic and all but i would like to say that that is a pretty good pic. that thing must have been moving to. lucky it didn't hit you. probably would have taken a finger or something off.why jump when you can fly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 259 #12 May 22, 2002 QuoteAnd you didn't catch it in your hand? Yeah really. It's not like you were doing anything else important up there.If you were truly magical you'd have caught it and hand delivered it back to that poor jumper once you landed.pull & flare,lisa"Try not.

quade 3 #13 May 22, 2002 Yeah, I know. I'm a big pussy.Supposedly, a camera flyer caught one at last year's nationals, but I've never been able to find it on Tim Wagner's tape.BTW, that's Ron Rios that lost it in my pict.quadehttp://futurecam.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 3 #20 May 23, 2002 Erno --In all seriousness, since I know how much just a single drop of rain can hurt, I'm sure as hell not going to be trying to catch anything with any part of my body or wings.Had, in fact, the Digitude actually hit me in the face or other vital part, it could have done some serious damage.quadehttp://futurecam.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In this day and age of smileys, people just don't seem to be able to tell a tongue-in-the-cheek post from a serious one without using them...Guess I'll have to learn to use this "mark-up" thingie... Where are the instructions?And... had you tried to catch the digitude in your wing, you might have been rewarded with a great big hole in the suit...Erno Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
