  3. hey all you gear heads! i just won an auction on ebay. its an older mirage. not sure what but its not g4 or g3. no articulation. it and the main supposedly have 600 jumps. main is crossfire 109 (s#96613118) reserve raven-m 109 ,0 jumps(s#51834694). i will pay $1300 for it all. turns out that both the main and reserve were recalled because of various manufacturing errors. are these probs too late to fix. icarus said the crossfire needed to be sent back by 2001 or it would be grounded. is this too much of a pain in the ass to buy or is it a good deal with easily fixible problems? the reason i'm posting here is i have not heard back from manufacturers and i've called and sent e-mails. any advice is appreciated ------------------------------------------------ 'I refuse to tiptoe quitely through life only to arrive safely at death' Anon

  5. I’m really bad when it comes to technology. I’m wondering how to take my footage from my pc-7 and get it to my laptop. I don’t think it has a firewire port. Only usb and a yellow video out. Do I need to buy firewire software to install in my computer???? I have editing software. I just don’t know how to get the footage to the computer. . ------------------------------------------------ 'I refuse to tiptoe quitely through life only to arrive safely at death' Anon

  13. i need sunshine! i want to pack up and head to southern california or arizona until summer. what do you all think is the best dropzone in the southwest for living in a tent at. just wondering if anyone can offer advice about camping and jumping at Eloy, Perris, Elsinore, ect... which one has a grocery store thats close, showers, good camping area and friendly atmosphere? i've never jumped outside the northwest or at a large dropzone before so i don't know what to expect.
  14. yeah! fuck NAFTA! one more sign of how corporations run this country! ------------------------------------------------ 'I refuse to tiptoe quitely through life only to arrive safely at death' Anon
  15. a friend of mine runs all her cars on it. its a little more expensive than normal fuel but thats only because its a new market. great for the air. maybe the key to clearing up all the yummy LA haze ------------------------------------------------ 'I refuse to tiptoe quitely through life only to arrive safely at death' Anon
  16. i'm visiting my uncle for winterbreak. he lives on a small island in the san juans in Washington. its really remote with lots of open fields. he owns a few planes. this gets me to thinkin about one thing. what are the laws regarding this? would he get in trouble if i were to lets say accidently fall out of his plane with my rig on . ------------------------------------------------ 'I refuse to tiptoe quitely through life only to arrive safely at death' Anon
  17. yup.yup.yup. and yes. i'm very proficient with all of that. i've used my front risers on my last 50 jumps. always hit the target. and always touch down smoothly
  18. i agree. buy somthing you can grow into. just make conservative landings until you get a feel for it. people are so uptight about wing loading when the important issue is the pilot's head not his weight. i purchased my first system used and it had a sabre 120 in it. at first i wanted to trade it for somthing larger but decided to go ahead and be really careful. i weigh 165-170 w/o gear. i jumped my sabre on jump# 28. i now have 120 jumps on it, 99% stand up on target. just be conservative and aware of the danger
  19. havin' a blast at my relatives ranch in costa rica its the only one i have under 60kb
  20. religion = false sense of security for insecure people. its simple. people like to know why we exist, who created us, how we should live life, and what will happen after death. religion gives them these answers so they don't feel scared about their lifes and can paa judgment on others. this is a pretty broad generalization of course.
  21. I'm not looking hard. I'm not waiting for that "special one" i'm not lonely. i'm not so niave that i think there is just one out there for me and i have to search. there are tons of awsome women out there. its just the girls that come into my life lately suck. i had a girl few years ago that was intense. we had that special thing. you know, the love that you can't get enough of eachother, sex all night and you always orgasm together. on your mind all the time. the only problem, we were young stupid and insecure. ------------------------------------------------ 'I refuse to tiptoe quitely through life only to arrive safely at death' Anon
