  1. eloy has 8 dollar a night bunks in the bunkhouse and there are quite a few people who do shuttles. PM if you want more info about the shuttles.
  2. i like having music on the ride up but i dont wanna jump out with something i like to be able to concetrate with no distractions in freefall. cant hear shit out of my fullface anyways so i highly doubt i can hear someone yelling at me under canopy.
  3. lots of us who are on teams cant afford to travel.
  4. yes it should be after doing 600+ tandems now thats not always the case
  5. can you show pics on how you mounted it?
  6. post back what you find cause my velo opens up just like yours does.
  7. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPJ3XKapDd0 clicky for you
  8. i know the guy irl and was just giving him a hard time
  9. highly doubt lodi's planes fly all day everyday during the winter. if you want pretty much guaranteed jumping eloy is the best bet and bang for the buck.

  14. yeah but when its all you got i would rather have a shiny turd than a dull one
  15. I have seen some Strong Set canopies with Vectran lines now and wondering what overall diffrences instructors are seeing with vectran compared to spectre. Did a search and didn't really find anything that has to do with strongs. Thanks.
  16. are there any headphones that are not 100 bucks that are good for tunnel?
  17. Take it from someone who was in your place 2-3 years ago arguing the same bullshit and coming up with excuses. Just shut up and listen to these people. Look back at my posts from years ago and you will see me doing the same and i was 100% wrong and only realized that a year ago. There not trying to stop you from learning, there trying to help you learn more.
  18. that happened to me as well about 2 months ago. On my head till i was about to toss the drogue then off it went
