  1. m2 Distributions, Inc. is a company formed to import the new AAD from MarS. The company is in no way associated with Alti-2. You will eventually go to m2 Distribution's website if you are interested in purchasing the m2 in North America. MarS is currently selling the m2 in Europe if you were interested in a purchase now. Enjoy here while you're here because there's no here there.
  2. m2 Distributions, Inc is currently working with MarS and the U.S. rig manufacturers to get installation approval. A few manufacturers have given approval, but still working with the rest. m2 Distributions, Inc. will not begin to import the m2 until approvals are granted. m2 Distributions, Inc will notify the skydiving public as things progress.

  3. Hi All, Many of the questions asked have been answered, but I just wanted to make sure that all is clear. Alti-2 is the exclusive importer of the M2...not the manufacturer. The manufacturer is MarS, a Czech company. MarS has been manufacturing AADs for the Czech military for over a decade and the M2 has been in design for approximately 3 years. The feature characteristics are as follows: 15 year or 15,000 jumps (20 min per jump) batter life. No routine maintenance Changeable cutter Water proof - 6' for 1 hour (changeable water filter) Expert, student or tandem modes available in feet or meters Retail cost - $999 We will be publishing more detailed information on our website in a matter of weeks...all documentation is currently being translated as original documentation is in Czech. We are currently taking orders from our dealers, but the units will not start shipping until early Summer. Please feel free to email me at Alti-2 with any other questions.

  4. Hi All, Yes...it is all true. The last issue of Skydiving Magazine was January. We mailed out pro-rated refund checks on Friday, January 16th. Renewals and new subscriptions that have come in since late December have not been processed. (Please note that we have never offered a "Lifetime Subscription" to Skydiving Magazine. About 10 years ago we offered a 10-year subscription with a copy of Norman Kent's Photo Book...these 10-year subscriptions are starting to come to an end.) We will still be in the office to take care of any issues. If anyone has any questions or problems, please feel free to contact me, [email protected].

  6. Ikel Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me Too Ikel Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too Went for a ride in a flying shoe "Hooray!" "What fun!" "It's time we flew!" Said Ikel Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too Ikel was captain, and Pickle was crew And Tickle served Coffee and mulligan stew As higher And higher And higher they flew Ikel Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too. Ikel Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too Over the sun and beyond the blue "Hold on!" "Stay in!" "I hope we do!" Cried Ikle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too Ikel Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too Never returned to the world they knew, And nobody Knows what Happened to Dear Ikel Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too --Shel Sliverstein Enjoy here while you're here because there's no here there.
  7. I just can't believe that Denmark has resin chairs as well! Thought those were lower class American icon! heeheehee Enjoy here while you're here because there's no here there.
  8. Tiny Dancer - Elton John Enjoy here while you're here because there's no here there.
  9. You don't have to the the DRIVER -- just need a picture ID in order to be served alcohol in the majority of bars. Enjoy here while you're here because there's no here there.
  10. When I lived in GA they did that. Sucked if you were going out drinking or something -- no ID!! Here in FL they just issue you a ticket -- you keep your license! Enjoy here while you're here because there's no here there.
  11. Great Danes are the BEST dogs!! I don't think I will ever own another breed! She is just like a big lovable person! Enjoy here while you're here because there's no here there.
  12. I have 4: Maizee - My Great Dane. I've had her since she was 5 weeks old; she's 9 years now Morgan - My Golden. Rescued her from death row when she was about 3 years; she's 12 now. Forest - He was a stray that was run over at the DZ when he was a few weeks old. He's a little "special" now (hence the name ) Madi - Maizee found her in our back yard when she was 3 days old. We've raised her to a whopping 3 months! She's cute, but a terror! Enjoy here while you're here because there's no here there.
  13. I've had mine pierced twice. I kept ice in my mouth for several hours after it was done. The next day I was eating and there was no pain. It was a little hard to talk because of the length of the rod and swelling. I'd definitely recommend getting a plastic ball when you down size -- will help prevent against chipped teeth!

  14. Hi Paige, I have the same problem! I haven't really slept through the night in years...it's become a major problem over the last several months because of personal issues. I tried everything! Seemed drinking made the problem worse. On a long shot I tried Tylenol's Simply Sleep. It's the most amazing stuff!! It doesn't knock you out - it's a slow gradual sleep and I don't feel crappy in the morning. It's worth a try. I have some that I can give you next time I see you at the DZ. Good luck!
