One more classic....Nuclear Assault!

ahhhhh yeah, cant forget about Sepultura....

or anyone else that you prefer???? I think Metallica has become a little to mellow, so I will have to go with Slipknot for the time being.

Corking is when a freefly suddenly goes belly to earth or into a position that causes them to dramatically slow their fall rate thus causing them to "pop up" or cork. Dangerous for two reasons, if someone is above, they can collide and two, dangerous at pull time because you dont know where everyone is....

good point about the corking.....once again, guess it gets back to the skill level.

Actually your time should drop considerably...gonna be much easier to get it in the bag....

We have all heard those stories about freefall collisions causing serious injury and or / death. My question is, how does this happen??? It seems to me that if you cant control your fall rate and speed enough in order to not take someone out in the sky then you shouldnt be jumping with groups? Correct? I usually jump 2-5 way freeflys and we usually collide while attempting docks, however the collisions arent any where near hard enough to even cause a bruise. We then just keep continuing trying to dock...It all seems so harmless while in the sky with a group of people even though we are rocking at 175+mph. Perhaps because we have control. So once again, how are people managing to hurt other people during freefall????

whats really cool is when you do it in the winter...freezes up and gets all crusty on your goggles...gotta use an icepick to chip it off....

2 months for me already with about 3-4 months to go. Motorcycle accident July 4th, destroyed every ligament in my right knee...sucks...still praying for rain every weekend (I am such a bastard!)...perhaps if we get enough of us grounded people praying for rain on weekends then it might actually happen and none of us will miss any jumping time (once again, yes, I am a bastard!!)

yeah...curious...why????

Throw out, look over my shoulder to watch canopy come out, say "come on baby" 3 times and thats about it.

this one just may be the worst one of all time...... What do you tell a girl with two black eyes? Nothing...she's already been told twice. I know, bad bad bad.....

QuoteThat's quite a day, Matt! Had my first and only cutaway on jump #20 I hope you are knocking on wood right now with that "only cutaway" comment.

dont know about you but I recall the ripchord killing my body position on my aff jumps...everytime i reached for that damn thing my body position went to hell, dropped a leg, etc...one time I did a complete barrel roll from reaching for the damn thing...I hated the rip chords...so much easier to have a stable body position at pull time with boc.

otherwise known as "plane panic". I am a firm believer that once you no longer have butterflys then you have become complacent and an accident is waiting to happen....as far as thinking on the plane that it will be your last jump, hell yes...250 jumps later and I still think that every now and then!!

my ACL was ripped completely off the bone, my MCL, Miniscus and lateral were all ripped to hell in my right knee in a motorcycle accident july 4th. Just got off crutches last week...sucked big time, 2-3 months of therapy left...make sure you work the hell out of that knee...i have been told with only an acl job you could be walking without crutches in a week or 2....stick with it..

nahhh, I had a thread deleted a while ago. I had asked the woman to fess up to if they were as horny as us guys are....someone didnt like it and next thing i knew it was gone

keep in mind the goal is not to do a perfect backflip, the goal is to get you unstable and to be able to prove you can get stable again. Odds are your jm wont care if you dont do a perfect backflip as long as you go from unstable back to stable again

Happy Bday Carol...this is JW just in case you happen to be reading this...been a while since I have been down to WP, been jumping mostly at Orange lately. Totalled my motorcycle back on July 4th and destroyed every ligament in my right knee so I am grounded for quite awhile....have a good one and be sure and tell Rob I think he is still a puss for never buying the beer that he owes !!!!

It's a script, dude. He's just reading what some dude wrote, not making it up as he goes along... of course it's a script. That doesnt make it any more tolerable though....."Malik is a child of the isles who gets his kicks from low altitude jumps and water landings" AAARRGGGHHHHH

I always try and make it a habit to turn around between 7-8K and head the other direction. I have never been screwed doing that and always comfortbaly make it back with plenty of altitude to spare.....

once you have gotten use to jumping a super otter it is kinda hard to jump anything else...they can spoil you very easily!
