  4. Well, counting calories never works for me. I think you have the experience to make this work, so all you need to do is listen to you body. In my experience, after about my 3rd year of lifting/running, i found that other people dont really know shit. I know why my body needs to make it do what i want to, the atkins, bill's BFL, and stupid exercise balls are great for getting you started, but its best to make your own conclusions about the whole thing. In other words, I think you just need to stay consistant, moniter your progress (or lack thereof) and make changes accordingly. As far as the calorie thing, you probably know this, but just make sure you have either 1 day of high caloric intake with whole grains, fruits and veggies, or 2 days of caloric intake that is above your daily caloric usage. (in other words, eat a lot one day or just kinda alot on two days). This way you dont put your body emergency mode and make it think it needs to hang onto that fat. Also, be honest with yourself, while cutting, your not going to make the gains or be as strong as when your not catabolic. Just by cutting my running down from 20min 5 days a week of interval sprints, to 10min 3 daysa week of jogging. I am noticably stronger. My squat goes from a max of 350 to 420. Perhaps part of it is mental, but i really tihink the caloric resrrition AND the running (or swimming in your case) really has an adverse affect on your lifing gains. So, just be realistic. let us know how it goes.
  5. Time to brag. I have 1) Brand new Mirage G3 with pilot 210 and cypress 2)nothing to do this summer 3) surprisingly a lot of $ to waste 4) heheh...did i mention i had nothing to do this summer? I think the progession will work something like this... Lost Prarie July 24-August1st, leave for Chicago, attend there from august 2nd through the 5th. Leave for WFFC and attend from August 6th-15th. Lets see....budget 1500 or so for jumps, another 500 for gas and food. AHHHAHHHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAAAA
  6. at 20 jumps, I bought a sabre2 190 for 1,100. I was talked out of it by a different dz. I never made a jump on it. I now have a 210 Pilot (brand new) that i payed the same amount for. I think i made a good choice. I weigh 230 out the door, so the wing loading is 1.09:1 or basically, 1.1:1 Granted i gained 10lbs over the holidays, and, the way things are going, should be back to 220 or even 215 out the door by the time summer comes around. So i should be even lower. Plus, ive got $$$ saved up and a lot of time this summer, so i should be very current all summer long man i cant wait to jump my brand new rig.
  7. that just pisses me off. What a waste of money. Think how many jump tickets that could buy ..me. pretty cool though. heh get it "cool" heh heh
  8. I move to Utah every winter (with the exception of this one). nobody out there has a 3 month lease unless you want to pay around 1600/mo for a 2 bedroom and fees for 3 month lease. I rent with the same apartment company everytime and break my lease at around 4 months. I have been paying the 5th month even though i leave after 4. They are ok with that. bottom line?...talk to them and be prepard to meet them halfway (ie..pay for an extra month...)
  9. thats a great post. Im not auto fanatic, but that gives me some perspective and i can see why people like it.
  10. During the winter: Ski Instructor/Aprentice Mountain Guide During the summer/fall: Full time student (geophysics) When i graduate, i aspire to ski everyday and do beautiful women. Ohhh the day when I move to Utah permantly and have my many wives. they will tune my skis for my every night and pack my chute at the dz and "cue enlightning music" i will be AL:god of women and skiing.
  11. wow, i was just thinking "I need some pics of that helment before i drop $ on it. Boom, there they were like a gift from god
  12. uggg... classes start again tomorrow for me. Calc II Borehole Physics Geology 541 and Cultural diversity. Just the right mix of difficult and boring to make me go insane.
  13. What about some skiing helmets? many of them are snag-safe imho and are certified for impact... leedom and boeri make some of the best. www.skihelmets.com oh..and they are alot cheaper too
  14. umm....do they um.........do they make a female model????
  15. go to cnn.com for the latest. sucks.

    hehe

    Lost 10lbs over the holidays. I wanted to see if I could do it...seeing that I can makes it even easier to keep going ...hopefully by summer i will get to my goal
  17. I have 24 jumps. I did my first two jumps tandem and my third with one JM. On my third jump, i was very unstable. He kept shaking me to arch, and i thought i was...but i wasnt aware enough to realize my feet were on my lower back. At pull time, I could not find my handle. (it was floating around). After about 4 or 5 seconds of trying...honestly..i was thinking "well i cant get it, ill just wait for my jm too". True, he was right there handing on to me...and he did in fact pull for me. We had a long talk after that jump about what would have happend if this was a "let go" dive. I voted Yes with the attitude that "if possible" he is going to pull for me. if possible. Now...i know that he might not have been able to catch me if this had happened after he let go of me. But back then...all i was thinking about was the dive flow....not about pulling. I definitely have a different attitude than i did back on jump 3.
  18. excuse me, but televangelists should be shot for spreading their disease of cult worshiping bull shit...not paid.
  19. your logic is flawed. The person with 10,000 plus jumps has (all other things being equal besides jump number) the same chance of experiencing a double mal as does the first time jumper. When you consider other factors such as experience, i would even agure that this jumper as a MUCH lesser chance of going in than does the first time jumper. Jumper number has no direct corolation to double mals. (all other things being equal such as experience/packjob/equipment/etc)
  20. any idea where online I can find a dealer who has the protech fullface helmets in? Thanks
