  1. I tried it finally last night. Pretty lame. I was very dissapointed. I had 4 drinks, didn't feel drunk and went right to sleep. AND...to buy there at the bar was $100 a bottle and at the local store it's $65 a bottle.
  2. I remember having an Esprit 170 when I first started jumping. I thought I was the coolest kid on the block. It was a nice canopy, good openings, good landings. But it's old and there are alot better choices out there. (PD!) If it was given to ya...sweet...jump it.
  3. I've almost quit The Red Bull, but still like it with vodka every now and then... BUT...with this... http://www.pinkspirits.com/ ...I won't need it anymore!
  4. The cutaway I'm talking about we never even looked for the freebag...everyone just ASSumed it was tangles up with the main...who knows how close it was. I tried looking on UPT's web-site...couldn't find anywhere that said what *should* happen with a cutaway...anyone know???
  5. This is one of my favorite landing shots to get. Sorry the conversion quality from DVD for youtube is lame... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8DryRf3CEQ I even get a kiss!
  6. No *Edit* Well...the one cutaway I've seen on a tandem with a skyhook the freebag was lost. AND...obviously on a total mal the freebag wouldn't stay with the main.
  7. Hey! I LOVE being lazy! And sleeping. But I also very much enjoy instructing. What's not fun about shoving someone out of a plane while they are screaming their head off? Instructing isn't lame...but people and places can be very lame.
  8. I messed up and only ordered the body. Now I'm having a hard time finding just the lens...Canon 18-55mm EF-S Lens...alot of web-sites I know of don't have it or are on back order or sold out. Anyone know where I can get one? Thanks.
  9. Man...if only Guam were closer to AZ! When will the next one happen?
  10. ~6 hours and plan to do another 5 in May. I'm just kinda flailin around like a monkey on crack though. But it's fun.
  11. Thanks. The DZ is Tandem Skydive Guam.
  12. Oh that's not a gang sign...I just FINALLY learned to count backwards from three and am extremely proud to show it off on every jump! Kim so smrt!
  13. I like the .2 ALOT. Using it with an HC 96...this vid just came up on youtube using that combo... http://youtube.com/watch?v=Avyr2xliu2g Warning...the vid is long with alot of extra scenery footage, but that's just how we do it here.
  14. I'm trying to find pics oand names of FF moves/names. 2 way stuff. I've looked but most the crap I found seemed old...anyone know of anything recent?
  15. I'm wondering if there are any significant differences between the two. I tried comparing on sony.com and didn't notice too much, but maybe I missed something? Also...I know the 96 takes a 30mm lens but am wondering about the 62?

    Suit

    I want to get a new FF suit but also want to use it in the tunnel...does it matter what kind you get or can one be used just the same for the other?
  17. And there is nothing wrong with that... I went ahead and ordered the platinum .2 from Royal (for tandem hand cam). I have a .3 from them for FFing and .5 for outside vid.
  18. Oh sweet. I was just looking at waycool's web-site and only say the red eye something .3 and black eye something .25. Right now I have the black eye with HC96 and it's really not that wide... Has anyone, or DSE, know how well the .0175 works with an HC96??? DSE...do you think the Royal or Waycool lens would be better...or both the same?
  19. What type of camera are people using and what type of lens. I'm more looking for what lens gets whe WIDEST shot and with what camera.
  20. How can you get the camera to stay on manual focus and beach and ski? It will last for a day then over night you have to re-set.
