Alright Moses, i've had just about enough of your old fuddy duddy attitude. Why can't you be like Twardo? He makes me laugh and is old school cool. Albeit i suspect hes a jew. Not only can he land his canopy on a penny but he has his own variation on a swoop and chug. The swoop and coin pocket i think they call it. We have 2 kinds of skydivers, those who when first jumping out a plane were pushing their personal limits so once they get their A they dont really progress so fast. Just falling is enough for them. Then the GoFast drinkers, the pot smokers and ones who listen to music far too loud; who cake walk AFF (me) and get into cool and edgy shit (me again) and progress in leaps and bounces. I suspect that back when it was a "sport" that you were in the first group i described. Now you see us young rock stars coming up you think your voice is the most relevent? Humbug i say, humbug. Listen to your elders? Fuck that, listen to anyone with common sense and that person can be a 200 jump wonder (like me again! ME ME ME) or a 200 year old round jumper. Was it you that made that T-shirt i hate so much? "Most sports take one ball, mine takes both!" Reeks of cheese, like this thread. Edit: SO YES I BLOODY WELL DO THINK THAT. AND THE WHUFFOS ARE IMPRESSED WHICH IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART. Infact im doing way more for this sport than anyone, USPA medal for me i say for public relations. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit.

Absolutely superb. I've been making a lot of jokes recently on the forums as i feel like my IQ is dropping with every thread i read. But this one is a gem. Deserves a bump for such a great service. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

I like you Hookitt, thats the typings of a thinking man. A thinking man who not only likes to pull low, but live and still get the beer with none of the shame. Striving for mediocrity is not only safe, but its still respectable. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

Best work from DZH yet. Love it. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

Shit my fault, i thought this was a joke thread. I was just using some tongue in cheek humour. *serious face* 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

Redbull would disagree and look at their mortality rate recently. When i go in i want a memorial video on youtube with 50,000 hits from skateboarding kids and the occasional jumper, honouring me as a fallen hero, death defying bad ass. My footsteps will never fade, i shall never be remembered as fool hardy (well, to some boring fuckers i will) and my name shall be sung across the hangers of DZ's yet to be born. Beowulf, Beowulf, Beowulf! I mean Andy. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

Look at all those AAD saves! I say we ban anyone who has an AAD fire while we are at it. Fucking pussies with their fancy gizmo's.

The challenge has been laid down! Im in Highest puller buys the beer. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

Back in the beginning of the sport there used to be "low pull contests", whereby two people would play "chicken" with each other to see who would chicken-out first and deploy their parachutes before impacting the ground in freefall. Imagine if someone had suggested that USPA turn these contests into an official event at the National Parachuting Championships. Balderdash! Are you crazy! That little sport activity promoted extremely dangerous stunts, but fortunately, we came to our senses, grew out of it, and are now much safer for it. And now today we have thousands of skydivers intentionally flinging themselves at the ground under canopy at low altitude and high speed, to see who can approach the fastest and pull out of their dives the lowest. It occurs to me that canopy swooping is just like low-pull contests. But while low-pull's were always an unofficial thing between individuals, swooping is actually approved and sanctioned as an official competition activity by USPA! But it's an activity that is creating untold danger and carnage in our sport. Will we wise-up and eliminate this activity as "too dangerous", just as we did low-pull contests? Poppycock, and i dont swoop. Lets just regulate the shit out of everything shall we? Skydiving/Swooping/BASE its all a question of choice, we choose these things. Live and die by the consequences of our actions. Thats the way i like it. Tightly controlled safety can suck my dick, in fact if i see one more fat old person skydiving i may just quit. I signed up for redbull and women, people with fucked up haircuts and even more fucked up atitudes. Skydivers should be cool and on the edge. You're ruining our god damn image with safety so cut it out. Go back to low pull contests which you obviously lost as you're still alive and have none of the glory of the low pullers! Right back to my beer. BSBD. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

Also the packers just wanna drink beer and call it a night. Fuck sunset load. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

If you enjoy his stuff you should check out "The Sharp End." He has a segment in there about his slack line BASE jumping and free climbing. Personally i think the guy is inspiring. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rX2v3f4G7U 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

One of my favourite episodes was the one where they outlawed smoking in bars in south park while showing the not so subtle undertone of junk food in America being a bigger problem.

Intelligence alone wont do it. I mean it just doesn't work like that. At the same time a smoking hot idiot gets on my nerves too... But at least they get some before you tire of them. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

Thanks for everyones help, i was trying to just get some extra light on the rigs to see the colours. I've came to the conclusion a better camera and more photography know how would be better than editing software

Not skydiving related but i know lots would love to see this. Famous exit point for this kind of flying, but holy shit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOWVobTNKwY 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

I want to lighten a photo but dont know how without the standard windows picture viewer thing. Is there anyway to save some of the quality to keep it looking sharp while lightening? 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

Unless you are in Chicago. Fought a ticket there. The judge called my name, I stood and said here. Then he said case dismissed and said have a nice day.

Clean this shit hole up called a home, pack my rig, go into the city to look for stuff to jump off, probably find a bar first to kill some time. Then get to work nice and early tomorrow to pack and keep money in my pocket for my smoking and drinking addictions. Its a grand ole life i gotta say.
