  1. Na Dude can't be seen up at York, might ruin my rep, (although, how mant times it's been ruined lately is beyond belief) Only fooling , hope to get up for a couple of days, normal thing depend's on what Hughy, has in store, Weather wise. Been jumping at Dale lately, fine tuning my new canopy, finding a bit more about what it can do and how it re-act's.
  2. ta , use to know few yanks (hope this does'nt offend), when I was in Exmouth, when there was a Base there. Went to school with a few of them I hope one day to get over there , and basically get down and have fun.
  3. We do this easter with have 3or4 Boogies happening all round the counrty from WA (Western Australia, (NSW), and I think Qld )Queensland.Although there not a Dz .com boogie I aslo jump with Contact lenses with a Z1 and do freefly with it, and hop and pop with just sunny's , have no probs at all. Probably not righr forum to mention this ,but I noticed one of your Post,
  4. Are yes that old one, if we don't make mistakes ,how do we learn. Just hope the mistakes don't hurt to much. Life is just to good to not do something, that real is fun And they call it, extreme, it used to be called fun
  5. So what way did the main force of the explosion do , thru his head Be Kind to White Pionter's,Killer Whale's, and Tiger's If you play in there envroment, Your Fair Game.
  6. You got it I'am in Oz, But was just making a piont, ability and skill make it hard to enforce reg's, when there are people who will advance quicker than other's, but are restricted As in all endevor's there should be a way for a CI or instructor's to make a call about a person, and have that written in so that person is not restricted by paper call's (reg's etc) And that person does not lose interest, or is ostriced for there ability.
  7. Will keep jumping it, and yes have done all those thing's flat turns, rear riser landing's, turn landing's, quick stop landing's ( starting a swoop, then having to deck it quickly), and a couple of other's.
  8. Sounds interesting, but I have a Query, Were would that put me. I have progessed Quickly on certain canopies, and basically have been jumping a loading of 1:6 at the moment ( although still in a learning stage) and have only 360 jumps which would put me and my canopy into the IV or V situation although by the # of jumps I may not be allowed too. Although my CI and DZSO, have basically said yes he is capable of using that conopy, at that loading Just athought.
  9. Hey well done, I sort of started doing headdown in my student days, had no Idea what I was doing or Getting into.Could never get into a proper neutral sit (below Knee Amputee),but worked on a sort of Armchair Nuetral, Works, But have never had the problem of corking unless watching other's ,and way off to there side, to see what they were up to. Your Paper explains it well Be Kind to White Pionter's,Killer Whale's, and Tiger's If you play in there envroment, Your Fair Game.
  10. Question Progessing on swooping, Have down sized, on every down size have added wieght's to increase wing loading , untill next canopy size becomes apperant (speed and distance and carving performance are at the best for that canopy) Now I want to Know the better of the two "hook or Carve" And Why , they might be better performed after a good corkscew to increase speed. Be Kind to White Pionter's,Killer Whale's, and Tiger's If you play in there envroment, Your Fair Game.
