I just noticed that Perris has changed its website. Really cool... check it out. www.skydiveperris.com ~Chivo

Ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anybody driving faster than you is a crazy mutha f@#$er? This proves that you're always driving at the right speed! ~Chivo

The work of the devil I tell ya'!!! HAHAHAA!!!!! Its almost as bad as the chimpmunks dance song. ~Chivo

Link? ~Chivo

Thanks, I heard that someone had an extra hole on the front (bottom) of the helmet to be able to do that, but it might have been on a different helmet. ~Chivo

This might help... http://nfs2000.4players.de:1033/nfs4spt_art.php?cat=spt&art=win2keng ~Chivo

Thanks everybody for your answers... now one more question... Can you put your PC camera in the helmet upside down so that all the footage while freeflying is facing the right way? ~Chivo

Yep.... the Matrix has you. ~Chivo

Hi all, I searched the forum and only found info on the FF2. What about the FFX? If you don't know what I'm talking about, look here http://www.2kcomposites.com/html/ffx.html Do you jump one? Would you recommend it? Is it comfortable? Do you need to adjust the camera? How do you do that? Do you have a cameye or cameye2? I couldn't tell from the photos... does it have openning(s) on the back to turn the camera on/off? And to start/stop recording? Any other comments would be appreciated. Thanks, Chivo

Whut!??!? No multiple answers allowed!?!? Guess I'd go for Lucy Liu then.

The greatest is Counter-Strike! If you see someone with the name "---all noobs below the line---" or "TriggerHappyIdiot" make sure you say hi.

619...655...MPH! ...and if you photoshop it...5655!!!! Edited to add pics. ~Chivo

It was fun, I definetly enjoyed it. Funny how similar it felt to be under canopy, but without the freefall. Sort-of reminded me of a hop'n'pop, except that the ride lasted for about 30 minutes. ~Chivo

I'll be around both saturday and sunday... hope to see you there. ~Chivo

True, but I didn't want to rely on my PC for that. Besides, I got this tivo really cheap... it was an open box @ Best Buy and I got it for under $200 and it comes with a $50 mail in rebate. Came with all cables manuals, etc., and it looks like new. ~Chivo

Its an undocumented feature.... but then again, there's lots of info about it online. My setup is something like... Phone Line -> DSL/Cable Modem -> Lynksys Router -> Computers/Tivo. Its awesome... when setting up the TIVO, it took 5 seconds to download all the data, instead of the 30 minutes it estimated! Definetly worth it! It needs a DHCP server to get an ip address. That's why its connected through my router. Oh, and everything must be connected before you turn the Tivo on. During the setup up, you must specify a dialing prefix of ",#401". Not that I'm aware of. It will work just like it would with the phone, but all data goes through the web instead, and it is much much faster this way. I chose Tivo because I can do anything I want with it... change hard drives, get mpeg streams out of it, etc. Well, I haven't tried doing it with series 2 yet, but I have done it with a series 1 @ a friends house. He got a 40 hr DirecTivo and we removed its hard drive and added a new one with 160 Gigs storage capacity. ~Chivo

Whut?

Saw it...Wanted it...Had a fit...Got It!!! (Sound familiar? I read it in a thread here, sometime ago.) That's right, I now have a device that watches TV for me when I can't! Now I don't have to be there to watch my favorite episodes as they're broadcast... it rulez! I even got the Series 2 with USB, plus a USB Ethernet dongle, so I have it connected to my home network with access to internet thru DSL! I can set it to record any show I want, from any PC that has a web browser & internet connection! I am a very happy camper! ~Chivo

Isn't this from Space Balls? ~Chivo

Yep, I'm talking about SudsyFist. Haven't seen him in a long time @ Perris, and haven't seen him post here. In fact, his last post was Jan 14, 2003, 3:58 PM. Where the hell is he? ~Chivo

Thx Jt, guess I'm a really boring person. The reason I put myself through all this boring activities must be that I'm addrenaline-challenged. Well, either that or I'm just a masochist! LOL! I'll post again after the terrible ordeal. ~Chivo

Probably sylmar (www.windsports.com) in south California. But there are other locations if weather is not favorable there. Tandem skydives is what got me started in this sport, so I thought I'd give that a try. ~Chivo

That's not going to work out for me, but glad it did for you.

Funny how I convinced 3 whuffo friends to come hang-gliding with me tomorrow, but I can't convince them to go skydiving! They actually think its safer because they're closer to the ground! HEHEHE! Well, tomorrow will be my pre-second hang-glider ride and I'll be doing a tandem flight. Anybody done this? Any comments or advice? ~Chivo
