I think that a ban free forum is much more atune to Base Jumping. People do whatever they want in Base; personal expression is a big part of that. Skydiving has tons of rules; Base does not. A forum should follow that trend. HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

WEll, I finally got to fly a Raptor at the PR boogie and let me tell you; it is the best suit I have used for flocking. As everyone has different body sizes (I am a big guy 6' 210) and flying styles I have found the suit that works best for me when flocking. We had a flock in the high 50's which made me work and I actually dropped out due to some burble action; I was able to float it right back up with no problem. On faster flocks it was also super friendly and stable. I have flown the MAch 1 on like 15-20 flights and it also kicks ass but I dont really feel like i need the extra wing for flocking. I just wanted to give my input and I really think that everybody should give this model a few flights and see how they like it... I obviously think its the shit. Blue skies and fat clouds for the flockers... Dan HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

I also miss Maggots funny posts HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

I am really interesting to hear how clubs are set up today and how they work. thanks to the people who have posted so far and keep the info coming!! BLue skies, dan HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

I've been to the DR quite a bit. I wouldn't go so far as saying its a DUMP... it is a beautiful country. It is still in the developmental stages and therefore is a third world country. Most third world countries suffer from situations like lacking trash clean-up... I have run into a few situations with the MAN over there and you can usually get away with anything if you have enough $$$ to bribe them with. Dominican Jails are no joke though. I would suggest some locals as ground crew; even if they don't have the foggiest about BASE. If you do get to jump anything over there pm me good luck, dan HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

so has anybody bought any of these and used them yet? i dont want to be the guinea pig. dan HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

Coming off adrenaline.. i just have one thing to say BEER BEER and more BEER HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

I used to listen to music the entire time.. on the ride up.. in freefall and under canopy. Once I was in the airplane and i was the person dealing with the door. I could not hear the commands from the pilots or my friends on the load. I decided from that day on that having music is really cool but not worth the added risk. All I had to do was rip the earphones out of my ear to hear them but i just tried to picture something like that happening in a real emergency. just my $.02 HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

Johny was my all time favorite skydiver. I've never met an 18 year old in a 69 year old guys body. his positive vibe will never be equaled. you will be missed. fly free my brother and MUFF MUFF MUFF HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

I will miss Johny forever. He was a great person with the most positive vibe ever. I always looked up to him for being a really cool old guy. I hope that I can be like that sometime... Old but very young at heart. BSBD I will light a fatty up for Johny tonight! MUFF MUFF MUFF HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

I have a buddy who is like 6'1-2 and about 180 and has over 200 jumps... he wants a first jump flight...hehe but i dont have a suit that will fit him.. if somebody can bring a begginer suit for this guy he'd be very happy. his name is Josue, one of the local jumpers on the island and an especially nice guy. the boogie is only a month away!! cant wait for the flock to arrive. blue skies, dan HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

my pilot is loaded close to what you would be loading yours and i have had great results with it while flying WS.. I have had some nasty line twist from time to time but it always flies out of them. I would suggest you demo the canopies and find what suits you best. HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733

I had a friend who had a pretty intense water landing. the canopy was obviously soaked and filled with sand. We hung it up on a clothesline and rinsed every cell repeatedly as well as the lines and the rig itself.. and the reserve. it was left to dry and repacked a couple of days later. this process took a few hours 3+ it was very very thurough. the rig has since had something like 50 jumps on it and it has been about a year since the incident. From what I have been told by the owner of the gear he has had no adverse effects from the water landing. the canopy was a velo 90 something in a Javelin container and had a PD reserve. i hope this helps.

yeah.. listen to normiss... a big way WS exit out of that jet is a shady idea... the first few went out clean; the rest of us kicked eachothers ass on exit. I think a 2-4 way would be perfect. HISPA 72 ----- "Muff Brother" 3733
