  1. did you ever sell your dbox? ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  2. Anybody heard about or seen one of these yet? There are supposed to be folks in Perris using them.... If you have a picture, post it...... Then again, this may be one of those gossip things that has made its rounds........... ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  3. Turns out the guy I bought it from was wrong about the size, it was actually a medium size. He refunded my money via PayPal and it looks like I will be buying a new dbox via Bonehead. Thanks everyone who tried to help ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  4. There is only about 1/8" of foam in the bottom. so that wouldnt help. I seem to be the only one with this problem so who knows....... ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  5. Well it fits everywhere except for the top and the height measures out to the same measurements as on Boneheads website for a large which is 4.75". No other Dbox is that tall with the measurements given on their website. What is the height on yours Dbox? ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  6. Anyone out there have the new style DBOX and are using a PC110? I just bought a used one yesterday cause the homemade one I was trying to make was too big. Anyway, the box I bought was ordered as a Large and is definately a large because the measurements match all of the measurements on boneheads website. The problem is that there is no way that the PC110 will fit in there. It fits perfectly everywhere except for the top which needs to be about 1/4" taller. I called Bonehead and talked to Linda and she reccomended that I take the top layer of foam out which I did and it still wouldnt fit. I am NOT complaining about Bonehead and I will say that Bonehead has excellent customer service, my Flat Top Pro Rocks and Linda is working with me on this DBOX issue. I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem with the new style boxes and a PC110. ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  7. Man, that looks like CRAP! Why didnt you just go ahead and buy everything from Bonehead? Chris, BHC ***************************************** Just messing with ya, that is actually a pretty good looking helmet setup. Mark ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  8. Here goes, I built a homemade box for my PC110 to go on top of my Flat Top Pro. The thing is made out of ABS Plastic and is darn tough. The only problem is that it sticks up on top of the helmet 5 1/4 inches but the PC110 itself is 4.3/4" so that only gives me a little room for padding top and bottom. I could maybe shave off another 1/4" but that would be it. I am not really worried about the width even though I could have shaved it down another 1/2 inch. It seems like this may be too high on my head and since I will be jumping primarily from a king air, will this give me problems on exit and possible tail strikes? Just need a little help here in figuring out what is reasonable and what is not. Dont worry about the screws not being all the way in cause I used Gaffers Tape to temporarily attach the box to the FTP and I have not finished everything. Any and all advice would be appreciated. ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  9. Just how big of a main/reserve are you jumping ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  10. I called today and spoke to ARLO at TSOD in Florida and she told me $1225..... ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  11. Ok, heres my sob story. Right now I have a 9' X 8' office with a door and a lock but starting today, that all changes. Due to the nature of our work my workmate and I are having to move into the secure area of our building. Problem is, there is only 1 office, we have to share it, and it is 9' X 9' in size with gray walls and no windows. Basically, its much like a prison cell or maybe a little smaller and I stay in this office at least 8 hours a day. I dont even think there is going to be room for a cubicle or any type of divider so privacy goes right out the window....(if we had one) I really dont know how long I am going to be able to do this, is it just me or does anyone else out there feel like a caged critter. It could be worse I guess, I could not have a job or maybe be on of those folks over in India or China that work 80 hours a week for $2. So anyway, enough feeling sorry for myself and I will post pictures of our new home tomorrow or maybe even today if we get moved. Gray Walls! ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  12. If you can remember the country Song "If I die before I wake, feed **** " then you know this guys name.... ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  13. Geeez guys, I had a meeting went to lunch got back to check the post and during that time the post turned into a "I HATE SKYDIVE CULLMAN" banner, give em two black eyes!!!. This was not my intention. What really ticked me off is that he was playing with my 2 year old son when the picture was taken. I cropped him out of it. I guess I should have given more details and I appreciate Chris taking up the slack for me while I was away. What I really want to get across is that you have to watch your back no matter where you are. So, if you see this guy show up at your DZ, Watch Out. More than likely he wouldnt go any further than Skydive Atlanta but you never know. Anyone that steals from people who he hangs out with, drinks beer with, and that trust him with their life should at the very least be blackballed from the skydiving community. Thats all I have to say about that! ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  14. You think you know some people and then, well, they steal DZ property and make your DZ Look bad. You wouldnt think you would have this problem on a dropzone but I guess it goes to show that the world is full of a**holes... ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
  15. Ok, I am full of it but it is a good picture to use as a Joke and send it to all of your whuffo buddies. They will never even questionsit. ***How come all the rich kids get to make all of the jumps?***
