  2. 230sqft. zp main might be a bit of a squeeze. IMO, the container by itself is worth $200-400 dollars. "No cookies for you"- GFD "I don't think I like the sound of that" ~ MB65 Don't be a "Racer Hater"

  7. So I take it you've never seen the "MTV Flare Gun Jump" ?? Are you speaking from experience or is this something an instructor told you. Too Late. They're called McCutaways and people have been doing them for years. I haven't seen the videos in question. But inflatable jumps happen at big boogies on a regular basis. Then stuff happens with the rafts and animals afterhours that you don't even want to know about. "No cookies for you"- GFD "I don't think I like the sound of that" ~ MB65 Don't be a "Racer Hater"

    I think Racer users and admirers should have their on forum on DZ.com. "No cookies for you"- GFD "I don't think I like the sound of that" ~ MB65 Don't be a "Racer Hater"

  15. Maybe you should try CRW big ways instead. Rumor has it, you have a talent for getting the leading edge of your canopy hung up on pop tops. "No cookies for you"- GFD "I don't think I like the sound of that" ~ MB65 Don't be a "Racer Hater"

  17. Actually the max age limit for solo student jumps without previous experience is 55, according to BPA form 114. http://www.bpa.org.uk/forms/docs/Form%20114%20-%20Declaration%20of%20Fitness.pdf "No cookies for you"- GFD "I don't think I like the sound of that" ~ MB65 Don't be a "Racer Hater"
  18. I once dated a chick who was a ringer for female bodybuilder Cory Everson. Nice chick, but when I teased her too long, she would react by throwing a backfist. Now I used to train in martial arts, so I was always able to block them, but DAMN she had a powerful backfist! I would hate to think of the damage I could have suffered if I had ever missed a block. Teasing anyone on steroids is generally a bad idea. "No cookies for you"- GFD "I don't think I like the sound of that" ~ MB65 Don't be a "Racer Hater"
  19. Choking off the Apex is not reefing. Below is a link to a pdf from Apex Base that will give you all the explanations you want for freepacking a round with or w/o a diaper. And explain to you and others why the apex is choked off. Though it should be obvious. http://www.apexbase.com/store/Manuals/21-26_H2O%20Canopy.pdf "No cookies for you"- GFD "I don't think I like the sound of that" ~ MB65 Don't be a "Racer Hater"

    I think the majority of jumpers slam Racers because that's what they hear from the majority of people they encounter at the DZ. All the while most, not all, have never even jumped a a Racer but feel it is their responsibility to inform everyone about it's shortcomings.

  21. Next time you jump, open at about 4000. Release the brakes, then take about 3 wraps of line around your hands while holding the toggles. Next slam the toggles down to your waist in an equal motion. It will be quite alright. Quite violent. Don't panic. You're not going to fall out of the sky. Let both toggles up smoothly or you could induce line twist. It's a hoot and good for the pucker factor. Then you'll see there is a big difference between deep brakes and a dynanic toggle stall.

    Hardly an issue anymore, as magnetic riser covers are being offered as a no cost option on most sport rigs. The 2K3 series have always had tuck tabs since their introduction. "No cookies for you"- GFD "I don't think I like the sound of that" ~ MB65 Don't be a "Racer Hater"
  23. Maybe. Gotta wait for the DZO to come back from Chile. And see what his plans are. I am planning to go to Cali around the 1st week of April through the middle of the month. But I was going to go to SoCal for the 1st week, then Lodi the second. One can only tolerate so many vineyards.
