jfields 0 #1 November 12, 2001 Does anyone know of a place on the net or any book with good illustrations of non-rw skydiving formations. I found a bunch of sites with traditional flatflying formation diagrams, but that isn't what I'm looking for.For example, I was trying to explain the kind of tube where you roll out the door. I couldn't find any diagrams, so I had to draw one to explain what I was talking about. It is attached. (No comments on my horrible pre-kindergarten stick figures.) I know it is horrible. That's why I'm looking for help....I'm looking for diagrams of things like that, hybrid dives, and other things in the non-rw realm. Does anyone know of any sources, or, alternatively, is anyone willing to draw some?Thanks!JustinMy Homepage Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 35 #2 November 12, 2001 here's my real picture of what I guess would be a tube jump, but we called it a 69 jump.AndreaThe brave may not live forever, but the timid may not live at all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I look at it and laugh too.Andrea,We weren't all up in each other like the people in your picture, but I'd be willing if you are.

AggieDave 6 #5 November 12, 2001 I wonder what the fall rate would be on a stick figure skydiver...hmmmm...would he jump out of a stick plane? What would his canopy look like? (Sorry, I think this round of tests is going to drive me or has driven me crazy).AggieDave '02-------------Blue Skies and Gig'em Ags!BTHO t.u. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #6 November 12, 2001 The first jump animation on "stickdeath.com" is pretty hilarious. His jump didn't turn out so well...."There once was a man named Enis....."-Krusty the ClownClay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You just didn't know how complete my lack of drawing talent really was.Thankfully, I can skydive (slightly) better than I can draw. So, which of you Picassos wants to make a decent drawing of that type of jump? You all can laugh at me all day, but only if someone steps forward with THEIR own version.

jfields 0 #13 November 13, 2001 Wildblue,If that is bad stick figure porn, then it is unintentional bad gay stick figure porn, because they are all guys.Here:U U U UTake those, print them out, and paste them onto two of the stick figures to make it into a guy with two women. Much better. JustinMy Homepage Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BTW, what does one of those cost and do you take tips? Homer: But Marge! I was a political prisoner!Marge: How were you a political prisoner?Homer: I kicked a giant mouse in the butt!
