Hey dude, the last post I found was like 4 months ago and I was wondering if there were any other opinions since then or stuff that I just didn't see. It did sound like you were trying to bag on me, but I won't go there. We can all learn a lot from one another if we actually listen. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

I was just wondering what some other people are using for skydive video music. I've been using some of the same stuff over and over and wondered what some other songs might be. Appreciate everyone's input. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

Okay, I realize this issue has been beat to death in the past and that everyone has their own personal favorites, but I was wondering what some of the most popular (or personal favorite) skydive video songs are now. Seems like music changes as much as the winds, but I'd love to hear everyone's input. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

Squeak, take a look at Bonehead's Boomerang. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

I'm sure that a couple stitches or a rubber band will solve your problems. If all else fails, give the folks at Bonehead a call. They are awesome with their cusomer service. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

A little more info would be nice. How much do you weigh? I personally LOVE my spectre. It gives me as much thrill as I want, but still acts docile enough to be nice and smooth. If you are just finishing up AFF, you might want to concentrate on learning more about jumping, and wait on the canopy. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

For those of you who haven't heard, Bonehead has come out with a new line of helmets in addition to their already popular line. The new Gunner has gotta be the lightest, most comfortable freeflying helmet I have ever seen or worn. I literally forgot it was on. It comes in an awesome matte black finish that looks totally wicked. Also, the new Boomerang is a hybrid helmet that can be used for RW or freeflying and the peripheral vision is exceptional. Anyone interested can check out the Bonehead website (www.boneheadcomposites.com) or drop me a line for more info. When you see them, you will want one!! ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

Mark, I'm a Bonehead dealer, so I am a little biased, but I have jumped both helmets you wrote about. Have you seen the new Boomerang from Bonehead? I think it blows both the Z-1 and the Factory Diver WAY out of the water. Might be something you want to look into. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

Gunner lists for $225 and worth every cent. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

From my experience, I would tell you that it will be nearly impossible for you to jump from military aircraft. There have been a few special circumstances where it HAS happened, but they are few and far between. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

I don't know how many people out there have seen the new Bonehead Gunner helmet, but if you haven't, you might wanna put it on your list for Santa. The thing is so light and comfortable that I forgot that I was even wearing it. Most of my jumps are in a camera helmet, so anything else is light, but this Gunner is awesome. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

There are quite a few of us who wear jumpsuits when we aren't wearing our tree suits. I'm USMC and I skydive as well as being a HALO Jumpmaster. Military and civilian jumping is entirely different. Jumping HALO is simply a way of getting to work, skydiving is a way to relax after leaving work. Hahaha. Good luck with your research. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

They sure do make one. I just got one myself. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

I fly a Flat-top PRO and love it! Some people thought it was too big to freefly with, but I havent had any problems. I love the fit, and the release system is awesome as well. It was a little steep on price, but worth every friggin cent!!!!! There is also a new helmet that Bonehead has out called the Flat Top Narrow. It's lighter, cheaper and less bulky than the PRO, and it might be something you would like to look into. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***

Hey man, I'm no expert, I only have about 400 camera jumps and 950 or so total under my belt and I am still a VERY small fish in a huge pond of experience. However, just to throw my two cents worth in, I think you should probably hold off a while. Don't quote me, but I think USPA says you have to hold a "D" license anyways. Although tons of people do it with lower licenses, there are usually reasons behind the USPA setting certain standards. With only 60 jumps under your belt, I think you should be trying to get into all the different genres of skydiving, and when you have a pretty firm grip on them, then try strapping the cameras to your head. The big thing is that you need to be very comfortable in the air, with your abilities and with emergency procedures, because camera flying is a lot more than wearing a goofy helmet and getting your lift paid. Besides, there aren't gonna be a whole lot of people who are really comfortable with having a camera flier with so few jumps anyways. Wait it out, you will be a better camera flier in the future for holding off. ***"A smart person can act dumb, but a dumb person can't act smart"***
