man, i sure hope my chute doesnt fail to open someday.
it WILL open, we are the impetus that causes that chain of reactions that make it happen. but i'm preaching to the choir...
we pack these rigs so carefully and yet a lazy pitch makes it a moot point.
i read in another thread were the iowa skydivers referred to him as their mentor, yet he only had 65 BASE jumps, that's scary. my mentor has over 600, i'm comfortable with that, i'm not comfortable with 65. this whole situation saddens me deeply, i was at couchfreaks this year and i know what a tight knit group they are...this is a sad event and my thoughts are with all of you.
Never, never check that puppy. It is a life saving device and your best friend. I always just carry it on my back. Never had a problem and I have jumped all over USA.
what about iowa? i seem to recall airport personel chasing you down when you left couchfreaks...
I'm going to Bridge Day - maybe someone will take a "sassy" photo while I'm there : )
i'm jealous, i wanna go to bridge day...meow.
as far as the hair, i think it's too long. you need to go back and have him cut the rest of it off. you have an angular face which is perfect for that kind of cut.
if teresa pays the $30 boogie fee---no balloon jump
i want to apologize in advance to everyone who planned to jump the ballon at this years boogie. i will, in fact, be paying the $30 boogie fee so that i can jump the hell out of the wingsuit. i know it's selfish of me but, that's just the way i am.
haha douva, u gonna have a disco ball in the plane? i'm very particular about the dropzones i'll jump at. you know i can't afford to over expose myself and diminish by celebrity.
If it turns out to be too much trouble, then I'll just go ahead and use my sabre 170 in my skydiving rig with collapsible pilot chute on 2-second delays. I hear from jumpers in the field that this configuration has been working quite well lately.
yes, this configuration works particularly well on 300' spans.
