Is it just me or has anybody else noticed how hot windcatcher is. I mean really. wow. very hot. -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

I have never been much for greek ears, however I do hear that belly button with syrup is very tasty -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

hey steve you should probably explain the situation as it occured and then repose your question. you may get a more informative answer -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

no I am actually a mean midget -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

oh idunno I'll bet he thinks you are increddibly hot. just a guess though since we don't know who this guy is -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

ok so who is this unknown basejumper? does he think that you are hot also -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

got 3 flights this weekend on the new ride. it is unbeleivable the diff. between it and the dagger. i think that i need to shorten my brakes. i am not getting any response to flare until about my shoulders. and i run out of flare before i quit flying -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

i will be flying my new mdv troll this weekend. i can't wait to see how she does at a very nice 200' "s" nearby I'll post and let you know how it compares to the nonvented dagger i have jumped from the same "s" -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

golf - not safe fact- there are more hospitalised injuries on a golf course than any other sport bar-none including amature and pro sports -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

i get an error loading codec -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

why would anyone post that vid. in a forum of non jumpers????? a place where you know the people watching have no understanding of what we do or why. you are just asking for us as base jumpers to be ridiculed and making it more difficult to open legal sites. the general public looks at something like this and has the belief that we are all a bunch of idiots who get killed on a regular basis. i don't think that this is a good way to portray ourselves. just my .02 -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

i beleive that the original question regarding such a canopy was for skydiving application, not base. i definately see some advantage in a base app. but not so much in a skydiving atmosphere. -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

i am not sure as to why you would want the canopy to pressurize from the bottom if you were skydiving. the only time that i could see this as an advantage would be if you were in very turbulent air, in which case you would probably not want to be skydiving. just my .02 maybe you could elaborate on the reasoning behind the question -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

tom i agree with both you and faber 200 ft. is getting low for no vent. but tall sites here do not exists and i am still looking to find out what type of a vent i would like; thus the purpose of this thread! -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

thanks tom i look forward to any more info that you may have. -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

thanks i had ben thinking about the troll but i did not no of anybody personally who jumped one. i no that any vent is better than none since most of my jumps here are under 200' kind of pushing it for no vents. -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget

i am considering the purchase of a vented canopy. i currently jump a non-vented dagger. my question is this is there much differance in the vents between the differant companys producing them. and if so what are the pros and cons of those particular vents. -------------------------------------------------- I am a greek midget
