  1. Somebody told me once, if ya know what that is.... and yer not married, you're gay. Well J-man, I don't know what that means so I guess I'm not gay, but I think my roommate is because last night his cock tasted like shit... You are a very sad person!! Look me up if you ever get to New Zealand Bend over Rover and let AFFI take over! Mykel AFF-I10 Skydiving Priorities: 1) Open Canopy. 2) Land Safely. 3) Don’t hurt anyone. 4) Repeat…

  3. Here is a collection of, well, accidents, hard openings and mishaps. The opening slammer was brutal, hardest one I ever had!. There is a sound like a cannon firing and this KaBoom was not added in post production, this is the actual sound of my canopy opening. There are a lot of other clips, some comical and some seemingly brutal but rest assured, no skydivers were seriously injured in the making of this compilation. Enjoy... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWj7p8YKnlA Mykel AFF-I10 Skydiving Priorities: 1) Open Canopy. 2) Land Safely. 3) Don’t hurt anyone. 4) Repeat…
  4. This is about instructors crapping out on their duties. Being an instructor is more than making a jump with a student and unfortunately, there are individuals out there that call themselves instructors, have a rating but do not do their jobs for whatever reason and the ones who suffer are the newcomers to the sport. It is a pain in the ass when I get a student nearly finished with student training jumps and their A License Proficiency card is not up to date, their logs books are not filled out properly and they don’t know how to give a gear check or what a braked approach is! WTF? Like I said, it is my belief that being an instructor is more than just making a jump with a student. Sorry to hear about your dilemma. Tracking down the mediocre instructor who trained you and getting that person to do what they were supposed to do in the first place would be a good idea if they are within traveling distance. The quickest and easiest solution is to get your card updated by making a couple jumps and completing multiple requirements per jump. Properly planned and some ground time should get you up to speed pretty quick… Something I emphasize to students during the FJC is that they need to take initiative and make certain their instructor fills out their A License Proficiency card and logbook before they leave the DZ.

  17. Understood, but you actually need to know what to search for. Try searching for "exit timing" and see how relevant the answers to the question of how much time to leave between groups. Newbies don't always know the lingo or what to search for. Then why is "45 degree rule" or "exit sep" so often in the subject box? BTW: Forums: Search Results Your search for "exit timing" returned 367 results in 0.735s. Mykel AFF-I10 Skydiving Priorities: 1) Open Canopy. 2) Land Safely. 3) Don’t hurt anyone. 4) Repeat…
  18. I agree, skydivers are awesome people and it sounds like you are too! Welcome back!
  19. then fuck someone else... then why not follow your own advice, log off and leave us good for nothing self richegous "skygods" on this "high and holy" website to bask in our indignation? What I think is obnoxious is people bitching about the FREE service being provided here that offers a plethora of advice and good teaching, which also in turn offers the exact opposite. Well, that, and people not making searches... If you want all your expectations to be met, then start your own fucking website where you can be the exalted king and tell everyone how to act and think in your monarchical view of life. Skygod my ass... Oh yeah - Mykel AFF-I10 Skydiving Priorities: 1) Open Canopy. 2) Land Safely. 3) Don’t hurt anyone. 4) Repeat…
  20. Tell ya what I think is total bullshit, people not wanting to put forth a little bit of effort to get the answers they seek. Often times, people want everything spoon fed to them and delivered on a silver platter when the answers are already right there. I have done searches many times before and found fantastic dissertations already composed and preserved that are so well written that it is seemingly inconceivable that the salient points of the discussion could be improved upon. So before asking for the fifteenthbillon freaking time what gravity is, houzabout taking a little initiative and taking ten freaking minutes of your time and conduct a simple search? The answers being sought are likely well presented in past threads... Yeah there is a such thing as a stupid question - one that has already been answered time and time again and all it would take to find an answer is a few minutes of time...

  22. Sometimes newcomers to the sport have such a smug egotistical attitude it is difficult to penetrate their rough know-it-all exterior and reveal a little humble modesty. They sometimes forget, or perhaps do not realize that there are multitudes of skydivers in the world that have forgotten more about skydiving then they have even learned yet. Kids these days, get thier lil'ol 100 jumps and have it all figured out. Mykel AFF-I10 Skydiving Priorities: 1) Open Canopy. 2) Land Safely. 3) Don’t hurt anyone. 4) Repeat…
