  2. I have a identical email from this buyer as well. Just opened it today. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

    Thanks for the mail.

    Great, this is exactly what I need and I'd really like to pay you in
    cash at hand but right now , I want the item but i live in NY. I can
    overnight the payment to you Perhaps, given my job as a set
    administrator for a movie. We move from one location to another, so am
    just very used to buying and would make arrangements for it to be
    picked up after you must have confirmed payment with your bank. So my
    means of payment will be Certified Cashier's OR Money Order ,which is
    more secured and better than any other means of payment.

    I'm okay with the price $ 500 so that you consider it sold to me
    including transport logistics fee. The pick up will be effected by my
    transporter after you have confirmed the payment cleared to your
    account.

    If this is ok by you, I will need these information below to enable me
    send the payment out to you immediately via UPS so that we can
    proceed. (1) Full Name.... , (2) Address to mail the payment....(not a
    postbox address). ,(3) Cell Phone number....

    I will mail you the payment tracking number as soon as I get the
    information and let you know when you will receive it.

  3. Well I got them gas cards. BUT I think the Victoria Secret's gift card would have been hilarious. Kind of wish I had thought of that. Would have been very funny. I would have loved to see their faces when the opened the card. Trying to keep a straight face as being thankful while they secretly thought WTF am i going to do with this. But as a female rigger I can see how getting that from a male skydiver would make it creepy. Still think its pretty darn funny idea.

  5. Hold on to your seat here. But they do not drink!! TRUE STORY!!! I have over loaded them with their favorite coffee and such while I jumped there. I was wanting an amount I could send along with the rig. Because I will not be there in person.

  6. I am selling my rig to someone that jumps at the drop zone I used to jump at. The rig is in excellent condition. But I understand why the person buying it wants it inspected by the DZ rigger. I told her I would pay for the inspection. I know the rigger will not charge for the inspection because they are just two of the friendliest people you ever want to meet. BUT I want to send something to help pay for their time. What is the proper amount to send. I was thinking 50 dollars but I do not want to come across as cheap. What do riggers usually charge for inspecting a rig that does not need a reserve repack?

  13. As a new jumper I remember how glad I was to get off radio. BUT I also remember how glad I was to have that radio on my first jump after the canopy opened. I am glad I had that (Band-aid) on my first few jumps. So I didn't learn old school >real skydiver way. After 50 jumps can you tell who learned on radio their first 5 or so jumps to those who learned hard core?

    Watch them land. If they finish the flare before landing, they are probably not a bad skydiver. If they land fast /hard with an unfinished flare, they're not very good no matter how many jumps they have.



    This is me! But aware of my lack of ability and try to jump solo and away from others until i finally get my flare>> so does that make me half bad?

  21. So seeing the Perfect little family's makes you feel like your lacking or missing out. ?

    A lot of people as you stated do that early and spend half their life wishing they waited. You are living freedom while you are young there will always be time later when your older to have been there done that. And then you will know if you want to conform to what you believe a normal family man does or continue your life of freedom.

    Even though you're jumping a 200 loaded only at .87, it is not a ZP canopy (maverick). It may be a lot more porous than when it was new, and even lightly loaded such canopies can be tricky to land well.



    I wish it was the canopy"s fault and a quick fix. When i got her she had less then 20 jumps and i have put about 20 on her She is slick and her lines waxy and white She is beautiful and doing her job her> Its her pilot who is screwing up

  25. Thank you again My landings have been harder and harder to get up from since I got it in my head I have to stand up. Here I am at almost 100 jumps and I let my ego about standing up get in the way. Going to try to get it in my head PLF. Even then when all i did was PLF my stand ups were accidental i didn't stand to many up but they sure as hell didn't hurt as bad. MY PLF's sucked but I was able to distribute the ground around my body.

    Seeing the posts from the BIG boys and Girls with so many jumps about it not being that important to stand up but work on accuracy really ment a lot to this baby skydiver.

    To me I always thought the ability to stand up every time was a direct reflection upon total capability as a skydiver

    Hopefully i can actually get it out of my head that I must stand up( cause i know if i continue with these landings I am going to get hurt )I want to keep me around a lot longer!!!!!

    You all are great it helps hearing it from people that are good with lots of jumps that you don't look at us clumsy idiots with contempt at the ability not to stand up
