No Ray, neither of the two frogs was Eric. They blamed their piss poor planning on his advice. When they gave him grief that chopper pilot who saved them should've taken them right back to where he picked them up.

Crap name - jumpers do their best to avoid impact.

Please do.

Rhonda, take a look at the attached pic. If that was me standing on the edge and somebody grabbed my legs through the railing I'd try to kick myself loose too. As for dear little maggot - you really are trying too hard. We clocked you a while back, this is no parody - just a bit boring really.

What size is your canopy? Is it vented?

Just find the nearest caravan and crash in that!

You mean the (Red, White + Blue) Bruiselite '220 I had in 2001? No, I finally got bored with PLF'ing and got rid of it. Good practice for BASE though. I had a good time at Skydance, mostly I'm grateful you guys had a sense of humour and didn't beat me up!

You don't know Chuck very well. Couple years ago he gave me help with canopy selection, he approved of my choice (which wasn't from his sponsor) and gave me sound canopy control advice. This is a monkey who knows his shit but isn't full of it.

Shh, I want to know how he explains taking her picture on their date...

Judging by direction of launch the PC is going to go through the branches to the right. Did he have an off-heading left? Why not PCA? Some more details about the height, face, landing area would be cool too. Congrats to him on his first E.

I got spanked hard jumping Troll MDV off LM (camera shut off on opening, got crick in neck), big mesh slider. I got small mesh before I went to ITW and openings were fine (36" F111 PC, double bite on primary with indirect control, outer 3 nose rolled in). Have now got second Troll (DW), going back to valley in 2 weeks, will use one setup wth small mesh slider, 36" F111 PC the other with big mesh slider, 38" ZP vented PC depending on exit point. If I was going back with just one rig I'd use small mesh, but change PCs appropriately. I'd be interested to hear what PC size/type others are using for terminal jumps. Will

Are you saying that if possible someone with a grand total of 55 skydives should skydive a BASE rig (with or without a bellymount)?

The yellow and blue canopy is CraigP's Mojo, the brown and green canopy was NeilQ's vented Fox. As I understand it one of the reasons for the unplanned CReW was because the lower man had the vented canopy. Personally I think Craig planned it in order to steal the Glamour on the record. Try PM'ing Craig (username cpoxon) if you want details.

Only vegans, killing vegans is OK. Memo to Tom : Remember to lock stickies.

I understand that he took a student to do his first freefall off this 330' solid object. Matt, people have had enough and are talking about taking direct action (not just one or two people). I got involved and argued against violence. So I guess this is a friendly public warning - change your ways because locals around the country are getting fed up with your inconsiderate behaviour. 1)stop dayblazing 2)stop showing off your dayblazing videos at the DZ (like I know you did at Sibson and Eloy) 3) call the locals 4) take newbies to suitable objects If you behave considerately you will get invited to jump a whole bunch of new objects by the locals, not just the few that everyone knows about. I prefer the carrot to the stick approach, so there is your carrot. I don't want you to get hurt BASE jumping and I certainly don't want you to get hurt as a result of your approach to BASE jumping, the above advice is with your best interests at heart. Will PS and as DTM will tell you I love carrots.

No, you didn't answer the question. When you work outside the US are you doing so legally? Do you have a work visa? The fact that you get paid in the US doesn't mean you are being legally employed. And since you are paid in the US does this mean you don't pay any tax in the guest country? Or is your mere presence enough of a contribution to their economy? Should they fine the shit out of all American dropzones that hire packers who don't have green cards?

Will you get a work visa before accepting paid work as a coach/organizer at boogies around the world?

You've only registered recently and your only posts have been asking about BASE activity in your area. The avatar and mentioning you live in a high rise building while probably intended to raise interest will definitely raise suspicion. What is your local DZ? Perhaps one of us knows an active BASE jumper there who we can point in your direction. Will

A huge deal with distributors lined up but you can't afford to pay the talent? Let me know how this works out for you, I might try the same approach with Chasey Laine...

His family back home are probably at risk too with all that info made public.

***Then again, I wouldn't mind seeing Abbie on the big screen either.*** Timmaaae, I've been told by those who know that this would have to be a very wide-screen. Nothing against Abbie, I'm sure she is a lovely girl but every American BASE jumper I've met tells me she has a really big ass. Is this true? The weather sucks and I spent my last fiver on beers from the offy - this is my Friday night.

Now if we all followed your advice then nobody would be here to read your message in the first place. Your logic is as poor as your spelling. Good luck with the project.

Kudos for the shot. Given the fact that he has taken out so many terrorists isn't it a bit dangerous giving out that much info about him? The people who matter already knew what he achieved maybe the rest of the world doesn't need to know details.

I am sorry things are so bad for you right now, but with a sister like this on your side : I must say you're a lucky man.

Hi, Which Troll MDV do you have - DW or older version? Also, were the wing-loadings the same on the friend's canopy you borrowed (using Troll PIA size for comparison) same as on your Troll? Was your friend's slow canopy a RockDragon? Also, how do the two canopies compare in terms of condition? Apologies for the many questions, just trying to get some background.
