3 hours ago, normiss said:Let's just all continue to ignore the facts in front of our faces, pretend nothing is happening, leave the almost 400 bills sitting in the Senate - including the ones meant to protect us from Russian interference in our politics and leadership, and blame each other.
Should work out well.
I have always thought our leadership was reasonable too, politics never bothered me, didn't seem to matter much in day to day life.
The last year, and now the acceleration since the republican led senate gave Trump a golden ticket to crime away, it's getting beyond serious. Ignoring and dismissing our intelligence agencies will prove to have been very dangerous and painful.
We are losing our democracy. But sure, I'm unreasonable, just being dramatic.
I'm pretty sure if you're pointing fingers at who's the bigger threat to out country it would be the Democrats....just my opinion....just as you have yours..

I bought a Vortex container 2 years ago and really like it......any news on what's going on with Parachute Systems......I heard they are looking to reopen in Florida......
-
I'm back after 15 years away...I love being back....but it's different in that I'm married and 57 years old now...but I will be jumping as often as I can but have other interests also. -
Cool..thanks for all the input....I ordered a bev competition suit with polycotten fabric, lined, lose fit option, and they suggested 2" wings got double rush on the order, should get it in 2 weeks...I'll post a review in a couple mths. Again thanks to all your responses. -
gowlerkAre you looking to start a brand war?! Seriously, both are very well built. Well enough to last you for as long as you are likely to be skydiving. When ordering you can tell them if the goal of the suit is a slow, or medium fall rate in the comment section.
No not wanting a war just what good info from users of both... if that's possible. -
I'm 6ft 220lbs and fall pretty fast...I'm mostly doing RW jumping...seems to me that the Tony would give me a slower fall rate...I was looking at the tony original compared to the bev competition....any thoughts...is the bev built better then the Tony or vis a versa -
I just got one tonight...x3000 4k.....I've been playing with it and it seems like active stabilisation is best...but the narrower the lens field of view the worse it gets....It seems a little worse to me in 4k.....and I couldn't understand why I have no audio when I play back movies, but researched the internet and found it will not play back with audio to your live view or cell phone...you have to download to computer or hook up HDMI cable from camera to tv. -
Just pulled the trigger on one...gonna stick it on a cookie...Will post pics when I put it together. -
20_kNAny tips for packing a new canopy? I got a new canopy and daaaamn that thing is a pain in the ass to pack. I have sat down with just about every packer that works at my DZ and had them show me what they do but still I have trouble S folding the thing without it inflating into a ball. I have tried doing one S fold on the top 3/4 of the canopy, inserting that into the bag, and then S folding the tail into the bag after most of the canopy is already in the bag (not sure what that technique is called). That works great for used canopies, but I am finding that once I stuff the first S fold into the bag, the fold literally just disappears as the canopy inflates. With used canopies the first S fold actually stays in place leaving a spot for me to put the second S folded tail into. But with new canopies that fold disappears as soon as I put it into the bag which means I am in essence just putting the tail into the bag and closing it. It's not even really S folded at that point as much as it is just stuffed into the bag.
Just have the packers do it for about 300 more jumps and then it should be easier to pack... -
Looks nice but how secure is it mounted with the 3m tape? Are they still available...I'm looking at the curved mount. -
Hunterbeav*********Just bought mine from a trusted source. And the worksmanship is top notch. It comes down whether you like the design or not. I bought it with all the bells and whistles. Peoduction time I think it was around 2-3 months.
I posted a couple of pictures in the other thread. Here are more. It is not assembled obviously :) I was picking between Icon, Infinity and Vortex. If you have additional questions feel free to ask.
Thanks...nice rig...great pics....I just made up my mind.....I will be putting in an order.
Looks like a wings. Did one of their guys split off and design this?
Looks like a Javelin also but $1000 cheaper !! I'm not putting Javelin down....it's a fine container.....I'm just saying to me the Vortex is a great container also.and at a price I can live with -
ceandriesThanks, I sent her an email.
