Spizzzarko 0 #551 August 31, 2006 I remember having to duck down because someone else was coming in. The biggest thing I learned is that theh factory diver helmet holds water pretty well. I was above the water line and the water slowly drained out of my helmet. It was like something out of a cartoon.... Dyters don't like that water that much and CB canoppies get really heavy when they fill up with water. It was like dragging a sea anchor out of the damn pond.

SkymonkeyONE 3 #552 August 31, 2006 I have been having to delete a lot of chatter out of this "picture" thread again, GRANT (and Skimmy, and JP), so please lets try to keep the picture to bullshitting ratio much lower. Everyone loves to see the pics, but we would all appreciate it if we didn't have to wade through so much noise to get to them. I am considering actually taking every post out of here that does not contain a picture. That will take me quite a long time and make me very irritable, but I think it would be worth it. It might take me nearly a full case of beer to complete the job. No more chatter; show me the carnage (and the magical swoops). Peace, your friendly neighborhood moderator, C. Blue, esq.

freeflyn 0 #556 September 1, 2006 Here are some carnage shots I took about a year ago of two unnamed pilots. No animals were hurt during these shots, as there was no fish in the Perris pond at this time. note the shoe on DSC_0139, it was a cloudy day so the light sucked.

twnsnd 1 #566 September 19, 2006 I am considering actually taking every post out of here that does not contain a picture.*** Now why in the crap would someone post a picture if they did not want to hear some feedback? If we wanted to look at nothing but pictures, we would just look in the photo section. This is a "forum" (that denotes DISCUSSION). In this case, a forum discussing the photos posted. Still photos don't do it justice anyway. As I have said before; in every swoop there is at least one frame that looks cool. Even if the rest was a disaster. No emotion whatsoever... -We are the Swoophaters. We have travelled back in time to hate on your swoops.- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanuckInUSA 0 #567 September 19, 2006 Quoteevery swoop there is at least one frame that looks cool. Even if the rest was a disaster You talking about my avatar again. It's a cool pic, but I will openly admit that it was taken a split second before I ate it big time into the pond. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twnsnd 1 #568 September 19, 2006 You don't have a picture on your post. Prepare to have it deleted by the Skymonkey. And no, It wasn't a slam on your avatar. But it is a good example of what I'm talking aboot. I said aboot. HaHa. Bullshit pic attached for thread acceptability. Enjoy... -We are the Swoophaters.
