  1. If I do the add-100-method, the best canopy for me should be 230, and have a wingloading at 0.57. I have seen manufacturers that recommend higher wingloading. If I try the 0.75 wingloading method, I end up with a pretty small canopy, well more than 50 sqft smaller than the other method. I don´t even know if so small base canopies exist. Using a formula can be good as a guideline I think, just like with skydiving canopies. But I thought that maybe those formulas are made to get the right characteristics of the canopy. What qualities of the canopy am I looking for? In which size-interval can I find those qualities? Since the formulas end up with such different results, I thought maybe it´s extra good to think about what I´m really looking for.
  2. I weight 130 lbs when I wear a rig. I have heard people say it´s good to have a wingloading at about 0,75 lbs/sqft. I would need a 174 sqft canopy to get that wingloading. Is there anything more than wingloading that you calculate with when you choose your canopy size? What´s your opinion, which size would be the best for me? When is it too big? What are the risks of jumping with a too big canopy?
  3. sit and headdown: 235 km/h wingsuit: haven´t tried, yet!
  4. I would choose either switzerland, new zeeland, scotland or ireland.
  5. An AFF-course can be finished during a holiday. The earth is not all that big, if someone interested in skydiving, I don´t think going to the states or australia for a skydiving vacation would be a problem. (Actually, that sounds real nice to me
  6. Does anyone know where my friend could find these dropzones?
  7. Hi! I know a guy that is really big, 140 kg. He wants to start skydiving. According to our rules, that would mean that the canopy has to be at least 390 sqft. And a real big rig to put it in.. Does that kind of student gear exist?
  8. graninge, sweden skydive stockholm "results? i´ve got lot of results. i know thousands of things that don´t work."
  9. I´m 21...but when i was in the states, people asked me if I was old enough to start skydiving, "just like my mother" (my friend...) and I couldn´t even buy beer for myself Put me on a planet that need more time to go one lap around the sun..tellus is too fast

  11. In the winter, the altitude changes from being told in meter to being told in degrees
  12. Do any guys agree on this?? God, I get scared by posts like this, Guess I need to have a weapon I can reach from my bed. Or a button I could press for a bodyguard to come and save me. Or would it be a crime to stop an aroused man from having sex with me if I don´t want to have sex with him anymore?? I think someone should explain to little boys, that there is a reason why someone wants to stop: Maybe it is boring, or painful, or done the wrong way for this woman. If the boys succeeded in turning the woman off completely, they have to accept that she might want to stop. There are more interesting things to do than having unpleasant sex. For example reading a book. Masturbate. Or find someone to have great sex with. It is terrible that some women and men lie and say they have been raped when they actually wanted to have sex, or didn´t show clearly that they didn´t want to. Using one of the worst crimes to hurt someone else is really mean, and causes problems for those who have been raped for real. BUT every person should be smart enough to stop when the other person tell them to stop. I shouldn´t have to kick or scream to get a man off me if if I change my mind. If I say "stop, I don´t want to do this anymore, get off me NOW", it should be enough. Or if I push him away and try to get out of there. Anything after this point, or any sex where I´m unconscious, threaten, or held down by violence is rape to me: If I scream or kick, I´m not telling the man to stop having sex with me, I´m telling him to stop raping me.
  13. I only have a link in swedish about the diamond thing, not any help for most of you! According to that notice it was Brian Crawfords company Fountain Garden in Edmonton, Canada, who sold the grandma-diamond, made in Italy. Maybe some facts which anyone who is interested could use to make it easier to search for information about the diamond.
  14. A mummy maybe! Or put me fire? Or give me to starving hyenas in the third world?? Actually I don´t care. When I´m dead, I do not exist, and am never going to exist again. I couldn´t care less about what happens to "me" then. I´ll let my family choose what to do with my body and how they want to remember me. The funeral is a good thing for them to take farewell and move on, the best should be to do it their way.
  15. hmm, I try to figure out what your point is Sonic.. These 50 things you find typical for the women you have met; do you think they are god or bad? Which of them would you like to change if you could?
