  1. I went with Simon gloves and couldn't be happier! Placed an order for 3 custom gloves and had them in hand in 5 days later!! Currently upgraded to three CX-100's one with a Cookie 0.3 one with a Opteka 0.3 and one with royal 0.2.. I love the royal lens but still prefer the Opteka over the three...even with the added bulk
  2. What's up, I'm looking at upgrading our older hand-cam set-up's. I'm looking for input on your favorite glove and camera/lens set up. I was considering a waycool glove with CX-110 but interested to see what others prefer. Thanks!!
  3. thanks for the updates Van! Looking really forward to seeing the finished product! Lance
  4. Free @ Skydive Maryland up to 5,000agl. $10 to 10,500, C-182's.

  6. Does anyone know in the first issue is going to come out? I couldn't seem to find it on there website
  7. Who can get me the best deal on 2-3 Argus ADD's? I'd prefer to find a dealer that would accept paypal payments thanks!
  8. Fun over ridgely @ skydivemaryland.aero on 4-18-09
  9. What up, I gotta find this song by Data MC called Vanity. Can any one point me in a direct to down load this dope song? I'm will to pay to download at this point, can't find it anywhere, and I'm reasonably internet savvy. ITS: Vanity BY: Data MC
  10. isn't this the same strong enterprises that just took on a $25 million military contract?
  11. does any one know the location of this photo? http://www.flickr.com/photos/ripcordjerry/3242162686/ I think i know the place and story behind it, but i'm not sure
  12. Dude stop whining and get on an airplane and jump. 15 years in the sport and 488 jumps? Thats like 33 a year. Why are you even talking about skydiving when you don't even really participate? If I were you, I'd spend a lot more time at a real DZ instead on playing make believe skydiver on an internet forum complaining about a DZ. If you hate skyride so much, go secure an airport buy 6 $11,000 tandem rigs and $500,000 airplane and compete with them. That would require that you actually jump more that 33 times a year, which you might not like, but beats whining about something you can't control on an internet forum. get a life
  13. I heard is still sitting on a Ramp in Fremont OH. Has been there since the early 90's. The owner was killed this summer in a aircraft accident, so I guess its future is in question
  14. I could be wrong, but I don't think comp air makes a "FAA certified" aircraft. The Comp Air12 should be certified by 2011. looks a bit like a pac750 http://www.compairaviation.com/images/ca12/CA12-wilson-05.jpg From Comp Air's Website (FAQ page)
  15. I heard the jumpers all landed at the DZ after the emergency exit. Pretty bad piloting if the jumpers can make the DZ and the pilot can't :(
  16. wow way to run an cry to the FAA/USPA. Seems really low to me, especially considering the demo seemed to be successful, no one or nothing was hurt (except your ego). Remind me to stay away from your DZ lol don't want to get arrested by the USPA police. Don't be a hater skycop
  17. Thanks for your post. I'm way to lazy for the search function, but I had read your wide angle comparison, very informative. I've had my eye on the babydeath for a while now but I'm wondering if its really worth the almost $400 price difference from the Raynox? Any other brands I should be looking at? Thanks!
  18. I just bought a new CX-12 and I'm looking for a good lens for outside vid. I've been using a Raynox for years with good success but I'm ready to upgrade. Any suggestions? I've got a few in mind but would love some additional input.
  19. Use the black widow poles. There cheap, and usually last at least 2 seasons. They usually sell in sizes from 10' up to 20'. Check out: http://allwatersfishing.com/product_info.php?products_id=9488 They have the best prices I could find (only $4.99 for a 10 footer), and there shipping is super fast.
  20. Do you really think the Safire2 had more bottom end power than a Spectre? I've always found the total opposite. Lance
  21. Anyone else had a chance to demo one?
  22. uhhhh, you might wanna read the caption just below the pic...
  23. I ran across on an aviation photo website and had to share. Incredible pic! http://www.airliners.net/photo/Skydive-Perris/De-Havilland-Canada/1334184/L/?width=1024&height=695&sok=&photo_nr=&prev_id=&next_id=
