  1. I'm sure the proposed system would keep names private and would be kept on a server outside the US. Even still, I agree this is a BAD IDEA. The dz.com servers are in Canada, but there are Canadian jumpers to worry about too. Who wants to be grouped, categorized, and sorted in yet another system... not me! What if law enforcement signs up as a local jumper? Ultimately I prefer getting in contact with someone through the small world social network of friends and not an impersonal database. Its not just about the jump, its who you're jumping with (if you're jumping with anyone at all). -a Abbie Mashaal Skydive Idaho Snake River Skydiving TandemBASE

  3. I want to replace some harnesses currently using mini rings (rw8) D-rings with big rings. As far as I know, screw-in style replacements still exist but I cannot find a source. Where can I order these? -abbie Splatula Rigging, LLC Abbie Mashaal Skydive Idaho Snake River Skydiving TandemBASE
  4. You sure it's not the other way round? The Montgolfier brothers in France successfully tested a parachute out of a tower (building) as a safety device prior to making the first recorded hot air balloon flight in 1783. The first recorded parachute jump was what we today call a BASE jump and from a B no less. There are measurements and a few more details of their parachute in a book I have at the loft called "Tales of the Caterpillar club. Jump!" by Don Glassman. The book contains the history of parachuting up until its publication in 1930. -abbie Abbie Mashaal Skydive Idaho Snake River Skydiving TandemBASE
  5. Is it that interesting? It's actually four links. None of which market to wuffos. In fact, skydivers with hundreds of jumps are regularly turned down from some of those instructors. But again, lets stay on topic. You haven't yet posted any stance on the topic of this thread. Please contribute from your vast knowledge of things you find interesting. -a Abbie Mashaal Skydive Idaho Snake River Skydiving TandemBASE

  7. hi. please stay on topic. it doesnt matter if it was tom, or miles, or jimmy and marta, or marty, or ryan "downplane" milliken. Think about this or any large media event being filmed with you, your mentor, your arch-nemesis, or your mentor's arch-nemesis. The answer should still be the same. Is this kind of attention something you want or not? why? for those that realized my PMs were turned on, they are off again. you can email me or use the contact page at www.splatula.com. I really prefer not to come here because of all the clutter but the forum does capture a large population of jumpers. Abbie Mashaal Skydive Idaho Snake River Skydiving TandemBASE
  8. They've been here for a week now. Is this good, bad, neutral? What does this bring, more wuffos that want to base jump or exposure that could open sites up? I think its weaksoss. Your Opinions? -a Abbie Mashaal Skydive Idaho Snake River Skydiving TandemBASE

  11. Ouragan? I think it means "sucker with too much money to spend". 400 bucks... Christ in a side car! Find a local Pittz Dealer and spend your extra money on jump tickets. -abbie Abbie Mashaal Skydive Idaho Snake River Skydiving TandemBASE
  12. Thanks guys, Karel just made contact. I underestimate how busy these guys are. As they should be; it's a good product. cheers, Abbie Abbie Mashaal Skydive Idaho Snake River Skydiving TandemBASE
  13. Hi all, Has anyone been in contact with William or Karel at Aviacom in the last week? My emails are not being returned and I've placed a multiple unit order with payment already sent. If someone is in contact with them, please relay the message and let them know I'm not receiving any mail from them (whether its them or technical email issues).

  16. Thanks Adam! Yo, the rumors are true! I am opening Snake River Skydiving 10 minutes from the Perrine Bridge in Twin Falls. We are located on the Jerome County Airport. Look for the website in about a month, www.snakeriverskydiving.com. CSpenceFLY - Lets squash that old BS. BASE jumpers don't hate skydivers any more than the RW/freefly beef. Its just razzing the other guy all in good fun. The entire DZ staff are BASE jumpers. We love both sports. Now I must run, because I claim that I don't post on dz.com anymore! Blue ones, Abbie Abbie Mashaal Skydive Idaho Snake River Skydiving TandemBASE
  17. While rigging requires alot of dedication, I've always told myself I would never make it my full time job. It _IS_ my hobby and I enjoy doing what I can to keep my friends safe. Rigging as your primary source of income can create a situation where you cut corners to make financial ends meet. I will never allow that. Rigging stays my hobby so I can justify losing money every month doing it. Agreed.

  18. Today in history, gave birth to many great leaders... First there was Collin, the leader of the lesbians. Then came Abbie, sumpreme commander all all things living and not. And now the triumphant day has spawned a new era. The trifecta of tyranny has begun... January 16th, could only bring forth the true anti-christ, Austin Ray Unpacked Pickett! That's right folks, Unpacked Ray now has offspring! Ausitn Pickett was born this morning at 520am. Congrats Ray and Kristy!

  20. stop being assholes to the outback staff. alcohol as we know is the elixir of truth. For 30 minutes saturday night i got to hear about how "you guys dont tip well, except for you 2..." and "base jumers are rude", etc. #1, i dont like being grouped with most of you, because like most of humanity you suck. anything you can do to limit this would be appreciated. #2. dont be a dique. #3. even if you are a selfish prick you should realize that your preciious 2-for-1 drink special will go away because of some of your attitudes. #4. if youre getting half off on your drinks you should easily be able to afford a decent tip. in idaho waitresses and bartenders make $3.35/hr. yes, yes, one of you will say worlds smallest violin. you have the worlds smallest penis. Apparently there has even been cases of family and friends of jumpers demanding 2-for-1 since they are with a base jumper. jump off a fixed object yourself if you want a free beer jackass. I wont be back here to read your responses so if you want to tell me to kill myself, please email me or use the contact us form on my website below. oh, and to all my kneegrows out there, i have a new phone number that I was too lazy to email out. 208-316-3416. I hope to see most of you once the season starts back up! dont die until you come visit! sincerely yours, Abbie aka Dr. Splatula Splatula Rigging, LLC www.splatula.com We put the fun in malfunction!

  22. firemen and paramedics ARE 98% heroes. you are a fucking cock. i dont care how long youve jumped or you many years you have on me in this lifetime. thats horibbly selfish to say. and there is no "we". we (every freakin jumper) arent brothers, nor do we share anything unique other than an interest in a particular sport. we all have an interest in keeping that sport alive but there is nothing special about any one of us that makes us elite or above common courtesy. you cunt, rescue helicopters arent free. im sure when you were fucked up in the hosptial you were complaining about the equipment and telling medical staff they are just serving french fries. dont pull that bullshit card on anyone, i already explained above... we're not the stonecutters. this aint a religion. smoke some dope and screw up some more measurments. maybe i can be banned for more than 14 days this time. ps- fuck you. -am Abbie Mashaal Skydive Idaho Snake River Skydiving TandemBASE
