Hey!!! If you start tracking from one side, I'll start from the other and we'll high-5 in the middle. What could go wrong with a rock-solid plan like that? It's not a real sport unless you can die from massive internal trauma

When asked what to do in the event of a reserve mal, our FJC instructor told us to take off our helmets and stand in them... That way the mess would be contained. It's not a real sport unless you can die from massive internal trauma Lippy

I jump in Alberta. I'm gonna be doing some jumps in Stewiake this summer if all goes well. What about you, Bunky? It's not a real sport unless you can die from massive internal trauma Lippy

Don't forget Balls Creek, Conception Bay, and Come By Chance Newfoundland. Lick-A-Chick, #4 of SkydiveMonkey's pics is the nearest fast food from my home town. It's in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. They really do have some good chicken. Lick-A-Treat is an ice cream place accross the street. "It's not a real sport unless you can die from massive internal trauma" Lippy

What's your point? "It's not a real sport unless you can die from massive internal trauma"

By the looks of the plane I'm sure it was a helluva ride...Glad to hear everyone's ok. Lippy "It's not a real sport unless you can die from massive internal trauma"

I wish I lived in Edmonton. It was a 4 hour drive to get those jumps in. It's not a real sport unless you can die from massive internal trauma.

After 4 months of sitting on the ground, staring at the sky, I finally got some jumps in the past weekend. It was only 2 jumps, and they weren't the best I've done, but ohhh shit I needed that!!! Thanks so much to everybody from Edmonton Skydive Centre for an awsome weekend Lippy It's not a real sport unless you can die from massive internal trauma.

It's the past four months when I've been grounded cause it's too f*@kin cold to jump. Hopefully the DZ will get goin somtime soon, if not I'm gonna go mental...not that I have that far to go. Live to Jump, Pull to Live Lippy

I'm pretty sure he's talking about the landing area, meaning that there aren't any desirable places to land in the vicinity, other than the main landing area, so make sure you hit it. Live to Jump, Pull to Live, Lippy

92 jumps and no chops yet, but I once fixed a slider hang up that put me at 1200 by the time I got it down and all cells inflated. The DZO didn't like that one on his student gear. Live to Jump, Pull to Live, Lippy

Being one poor bastard, I've yet to jump my own gear and have done 92 skydives, almost all of which on Mantas and Skymasters. One thing I picked up is that if you flare the canopy up high, it will take enough pressure off of the front risers that you can really haul 'em down. You'll get a faster turn, but it's a real bitch to hold it down that far. Hope this helps, and remember to keep it high. Live to Jump, Pull to Live, Lippy

What the F%@K you talking about?!?!?

It'll be 3 weeks tomorrow since I quit, and it was all of the posts in here about quitting that made me decide to finally do it. Also the fact that pretty soon smokes are going to be over $8 a pack in Alberta, but I learned that a week after I stopped. Now it's just all the more motivation to keep off of them.

Not to be ignorant, but what's a decelerator? Just a different type of reserve, or something else all together? Live to Jump, Pull to Live, Lippy

Hey Y'all, I just ordered myself a Reflex, and it is exactly what I want, except for the lack of a collapsable PC. I'm putting a Sabre 170 in it, and although I like to play under canopy, I won't be doing anything crazy for at least another 100 jumps or so on it. Is there a significant difference in performance, or will I not even notice it. I've only jumped one other S170 and it was collapsable, and I've never jumped anything but a Manta without one. Any info appreciated, Live to Jump, Pull to Live, Lippy

You guys are really, really mean...I like that. Live to Jump, Pull to Live, Lippy

Anybody watch the cartoon 'King of the Hill'. Last night I was reading program descriptions, and it said that Hank and Peggy hill were going skydiving, so I flicked it on. I don't know if its a season finale or what, but Peggy had dual total mals and burned in. WTF was that all about?! Live to Jump, Pull to Live, Lippy

Tee, A big congradulations, and your more than welcome to borrow my Sabre 170 anytime. Blue Skies, Lippy

And exactly what were you smoking before you had this dream?

Does anybody know of a good gear store where I can buy a used container? If so, please post it. The season starts in a couple weeks and I'm needin something bad, but none of the stores I called so far have what I'm looking for, and classifieds aren't looking any better. Blue Skies, Lippy

I had a student line of credit, and the line went straight to the manifest. Now I'm poor. But hey it's too cold to jump now, I'll think of somthing come March. Live to Jump, Pull to Live, Lippy

I gave up drugs, and subsequently all of my pot-smokin friends in school. I skipped my college graduation to spend the day at the DZ...It was a really, really nice day. Now I'm out of school, making decent money, and I still live on Kraft dinner and hot dogs and walk to work in freezing weather cause I'd rather buy a rig than a car right now. And I wouldn't have it any other way. Live to Jump, Pull to live, Lippy
