I had my local bookstore order me "The Skydivers Handbook" I'm still reading in preperation. Good book.

I considered asking him stuff about how he dealt with not being able to breathe, or making up words for gear or something, but I didn't... "So, what kind of semi-triangular flexible ripcord casings did you use with your MNO? I prefer a seven-sided R-12, but most of the people I jump with use the traditional eleven, like a QZI or a Fine-n-Dandy..." Your a natural!

Yeah mine was too. Though it was more like falling through the floor into the 6th demension

I have a keg of bass ale upstairs at my work with a pool table

Don't forget to have fun though man, I mean that is what your risking your life for. Is to have fun!

I think that's my problem

That's the plan bro!

Just signed up for my first tunnel camp in Colorado. It's a 3 day camp which I'm going to before AFF, anyone have suggestions for back stretches or exercises to get me ready, or just general back twists,arching stretches, and crunches??

[replycheaper than a Coke habit, and the rush is way better...

Sweet! a good sushi place next to the tunnel. Doesn't get much better

Yeah I try not to think about the cash flow, gets in the way guess I'll worry about that later!

Exactly billvon I'm no pro, or even exprienced for that matter, but I don't want to be a skydiver that looks at his main pack job and says "ah It's not perfect but it doesnt have to be because of my reserve" I want to be confident my main is going to function properly before I go to plan b.

beautiful!

A guy just got done doing his first tandem and was looking through parachutist. There was a picture of an exit from a helicopter. He said, "I thought you couldn't jump from a helicopter because when you open your 'chute you'll go up into the propeller." That's a weird thought

Damn, and to think I was worried about being accepted. Good thing I have a bangin' ass!!

I sell them at my store peej. Never have heard their work but alot of people come in asking for them. Ask your local record store if they can special order them for you. If not, let me know and I'll get some off to you.

Exactly. I think were I jumped and will continue to jump is a great place, with awesome people, but I don't see myself in a position to write any kind of review based on my two jumps.

SVC must be rich to start building it's own light rail line and some serious connections with the local authorities tash D-Town baby

Right, Sorcerer. Sounds better than wizard!

Mary, Do you know how many people have signed up for the first tunnel camp? I think I might go ahead and put it on the trusty credit card!

DEFINITLY. I thought base jumpers didn't use reserve rigs. Though I did see a clip of one on skydivingmovies.com called the wizard or something...

N/A

I want to buy my own alitimaster III for my AFF, I have been to skydivingstore.com and seems like a good site. Does anyone have a suggestion of a better site? thanks, Tom

Exactly!

I am sometimes derided for the care and time I take in packing, but the results speak for themselves Damn straight. that is one thing I am going to practice and practice. Hopefully my DZ will let me just practice packing with one of their rigs.
