  1. Eurotophobia: Fear of female reproductive organs. Arachibutyrophobia: Fear of penut butter sticking to ones palate. Achondroplasiaphobia: Fear of midgets. Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia: Fear of long words. :) "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  2. How about "Hippopotomonstrosesquiopedaliophobia" :D "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  3. Close enough :) "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  4. ... But do you know what eurotophobia is? "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  5. Not likely going to happen. Two oil slicks consistent with a water crash were seen but no wreckage. Acording to other forums the slicks appear to be some kind of placton: "I am a marine scientist, and to me that photo shows a slick of the cyanobacterium Trichodesmium, which is common this time of year in the gulf of Thailand" http://www.windows2universe.org/headline_universe/olpa/microbe_25feb10.html&edu=high "I don´t stop when I am tired.

  6. Hey PotatoMan. I am in Slovakia. 30 Kms from the border. Going to BUD pretty often, maybe I can help you out. Send me a Private with the name of the toothpaste and Ill see if I can get it around here, if not, I may go to BUD on Sunday for lunch. Ill be happy to help you :) "I don´t stop when I am tired.

  7. Are looking to correct myopia or hypermetropia? Is there any astigmatism?. Why do you want to do surgery? It really doesnt matter though. I would advice you to suck it up and deal with glasses or contact lenses. Complications are a lot more frequent than your Ophtalmologist will tell you, and once your eye is messed up, little can be done to fix it. I did my opht. rotation with a very nice lady who wore glasses. When we discussed the surgical procedures she said she would never do it herself or allow anyone she cared about to have eye surgery done. She could have it done free anytime she wanted to and she decided not to do it. "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  8. Sounds like a Plan. Whare I am most people love TONFLY suits. They are amazing, but they are a little pricey. I ordered one now that I know FF is my favorite discipline. I would suggest taking a look at the skylark suits. They are made in Ukrania. They are very reasonably priced (100-200 for a custom made suit) and they have some FF suits with low profile grips. I had one ( still do) and are very wel build and offer great bang for your buck :) "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  9. I see from your profile you have 9 jumps (as of this writing). Do you have more knowledge about skydiving, or parachutes, or the skydiving industry, than the average novice with 9 jumps? For fuck sake dude. The guy is just giving a pretty innocent opinion. Enough with the "skygod" attitude. I dont care if you have a gazillion jumps and gigantic ball sack. Chill dude. It's not an innocent opinion, it's an uninformed one, with little published experience to back it up. When I'm left in that position I open my ears and shut my mouth. How is it not an innocent opinion? He is not telling anyone to do anything stupid. He is saying he wouldnt buy gear older than he is. You dont need to have a million jumps to prefer new gear over older one, or to form an opinion. Some people may have not as many jumps as you guys do but, hey, we can read & learn.

  11. Oh! I forgot! By lcd you mean the actual watch - controller -viewfinder thingy or the handycam-transforming attachment? I have been looking for the Watch thingy for a while like crazy but Its not out ( At least in Europe) till december the 6th :( Im actually looking forward to it and to DSE making a review / comparison epic video. Been following that guy since I found his 2011 PIA interviews in youtube when I was doing my research for which container to buy. Man is a legenD! "I don´t stop when I am tired.

  12. Some of the guys at my Dz have been jumping them for the last month or so. BLOWS the Gopro out of the water ( In MY opinion, mind you). Colors are super nice and real-looking ( I always found the Gopro to be a bit on the yellow side :D). I liked it so much that I actually picked one myself. Gonna take it snowboarding this weekend and scuba diving to Marocco next month. Hopefully by Xmas when i get home I'll have enough jumps to jump it myself and Ill show you guys some beach jumps with it :) "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  13. Hello friends :) I was speaking to my instructors and the inspector guy at the country I live about maybe ordering a new canopy. I currently jump a pilot 168 (which I love) but Im quite light and my wingload is quite low (+- 1.03) My instructor said that I can jump a 150 no problem, and maybe a 140. I can land my current canopy down wind and cross wind ( I have tried this in relatively calmed winds, nothing crazy, dont wanna kill myself) I can flat turn and I even did my approach a few times using rears only but always grabbed my toggles before landing and flare normally. Never fully landed on rears. So my question is, what do you guys think? Order a 150, jump that for maybe a year or two and then sell it. Another option is, my instructor told me I can order the 140, borrow a 150 ( wont be a pilot exactly, would be a magelan,from skylark) jump that for two or three months and then when the pilot 140 gets here stick it in and jump that. ( im doing about 20 jumps a month, so Id do about 35-40 on the 150 and then stick to the 140) I know there are Saber2 and Saphires and stuff which are awesome. And I would consider them if you guys think there are a better fit. So far I like the pilot for a few reasons. Aerodyne customer service is amazing. I bought my whole kit from them and they took extremely good care of me. Pilot opens incredibly smooth compared to the PD Navigator that I jumped before. I tried a saber 2 and it didnt open as bad as the NAV but It was not a pilot either. I seemed quite similar to fly ( but I only did two jumps and didnt really try to do anything other than come to the airport ( a bit long spot) and land the thing. I did notice I needed to flare less to land. I am not really interested in swooping or high performance landing. I want to have fun in the air with my canopy, I want to have a little more wind penetration and a bit more stability if there is a bit of turbulence. I also love opening high and playing around with my canopy on those sunset loads. I have listened to my instructor, coach and inspector guy. I just want to see what you guys think. I currently have 127 jumps. I weight 70 kilos (154 pounds aprox) My container is an ICON I5 Thank you for taking the time to read this and for your advice. Im not looking to become the next post in the incident forums but I really believe I am ready for something a little more fun. Again. My instructor has absolutely no problem allowing me to jump the 150 or the 140 IF I do at least 30 - 40 jumps in a 150 before. "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  14. Hello :) Does anyone know where in Europe can I buy the "learning to Freefly" collection? Or does anyone have a copy that would like to sell? I am in Europe and cant find the whole collection here. The store in empuriabrava only has the Sitfly and transitions ones, but I would like to start from the beginning and get the basic body flight and backfly ones too. I could purchase it from a store online in the states but the customs people would kill me with taxes, and i just bought a new rig and money is kinda tight. Thanks for your help :) "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  15. Ha!! You think you are so cool, dont you? Lay down the testosterone bro. It wont make ur prick work and it is obviously turning you into a cocky brainless retard. Or were you born this way? "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  16. Dont mind goonies kid. The guy is a tool. Must have an E.D. Thats the only explanation for his shitty attitude. Congrats and have fun!!! "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  17. LOL! I guess I deserved that. I meant 10000 feet. "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  18. ... By the way... 22-25 July there is a boogie on Slavnica dropzone, Slovakia. Jumps from Fl@10000 for ten euros ;) More info on their webpage :) "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  19. Hello friends. A friend of mine have created a group on facebook that aims to put all the info related to boogies in Europe for everyone to see so noone misses anything. Everyone is free to join and post. Please join and post any boogies, safety days, courses, parties or whatnot :) See ya all there! https://www.facebook.com/groups/skydiveboogieurope/ "I don´t stop when I am tired.

  20. Lets pretend someone writes the following message to his roommate on facebook " Dude!! Last night was the BOMB!!! Im having a KILLER time in NY. Went to this club and the DJ was DROPPING the sickest tunes. I meet these girls and BLOWED all my money on vodka bottles and redbull cans. Do me a favor. There is some cash on a envelope on the second drawer of my desk. Would you grab it and deposit it into this account at my bank? 1234567891011.." Because of the "key words" this poor bastard would probably be flagged and would have all of his private mails, messages or whatever scanned, read and stored. Im sorry, but its not fair or acceptable. Dont you think its fucked up that people´s privacy all over the world is on jepardy while they await on a resolution by the AMERICAN supreme court? Again, I dont care what excuse your government thinks they have. They can´t just act like a bully and shield they disgusting behaviour behind the "terrorist threat" I repeat, if they are so interested in fighting terrorism dont fucking arm and finance sirian rebels, or taliban, or whoever freedom fighters your government decides to support this week. I dont believe they have thwarted jack diddly squat by reading on people´s facebook accounts, sms´s or emails. You´d have to be a pretty dumb "terrorist" to plot a "terror attack" on us soil by email or whatsapp. If "terrorists" are able to learn to fly, hijack a bunch of planes, fly them low and fast towards a bulding, kill a couple of thousand people and hide the "resposible man" for over ten years on a cave somewhere, Im sure they can arrange a way of communication non dependant on internet. IRS is an american organization controling american people´s taxes. You have the government and system you guys choose. I couldnt care less for what they do inside america. That is your guys problem just like spanish corruption is our problem. "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  21. There is some info ( very little ) on the incidents forum, on the thread about the last fatility on Empuriabrava. "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  22. Why would he be safer in Russia? He could go to Cuba and sleep wth Mulatas until he is spent. Everyone knows what happened last time the CIA tried to invade Cuba. "I don´t stop when I am tired. I stop when I am done"
  23. Well, I guess only time will tell what happens to him but Im pretty sure he will be alright. Im almost sure that Ecuador will accept him and that the US governmet wont be able to do much other than scream and throw a tantrum. And you know what? Im happy I cant comprehend why the hell you think it is ok for your government ( or ANY) government to SPY on people. I dont care how they do it or what reasons you may think they have. Everyone, and I dont care if they are american, spanish, russian or samoan, have a right to their privacy. I am just a random dude and dont really have nothing to hide from anyone. If the nsa would look into my laptop they will find a bunch of school notes, movies, music, skydiving videos and pictures of me and my friends getting drunk, but that is not the point. If anyone wants to have my phone number, bank information or take a look at my pics they can either ask nicely or get a court order. Any other way is unacceptable. If your government had any real intentions of fighting terrorism they wouldnt do stupid shit like arming & financing the sirian "rebels" or the taliban in Afganistan before. Im sick and tired of the US government using the "terrorism" excuse to do whatever they feel, whenever they feel with total disregard for other people´s rights.

  24. So far this uneducated, low-self steem, douche canoe has managed to outsmart the CIA & a few other agencies, made the Obama administration look like a bunch of headless chickens running in circles, escaped the US with a bunch of sensible information, got the russians, the chinese, the ecuatorias, the Cuban, the Venezuelans and the icelanders to play along with him and he is out of the tentacles of the us diplomacy. He will be zipping beers on the sun, sitting pretty on the bunch of million dollars he is going to make selling his story rights and whatever information he brought along with him. You might not like him but not admiting than he is a lot smarter than a lot of the people who is trying to get him back to the states is kinda diluted. "I don´t stop when I am tired.
