  2. Normally better to ask questions before dissing an event. Especially when the organizer of the event adds stuff like his e-mail, website, dizzy.com name, etc.

    Besides, what other event can you take Rich's money at poker? (other than Lost Prairie).

    Come on Quad 4's..... ;);)

    We had a student a few weeks ago that cut away because this thing came sliding down her lines. She cuts away, and SHIT! It happens again, damn piece of fabric caught in the lines and sliding down towards her hands.

    Good thing she didn't have a hook knife.



    Ah yes....The dreaded slider down malfunction.



    Hate it when that happens. We had a novice do that a dozen years ago or so and ended up with the nickname "Slider". (didn't say we were original....). She still jumps and we bring up the NN every so often......

  4. So true...

    I tell them on the First Jump Course that if the guy's voice on the radio gets louder, or raises an octave or two, they are probably screwing up and to start paying attention before they break themselves.

    Manifest knows that when I start using my Parade Square voice on the radio that I have someone "Short Bus Special" under canopy.

    It works most of the time. Only had one student over 16 years of radio who broke himself. (knock on wood).
