  1. Could it be Jack Bergman doing the watching??
  2. On July 3 1977 I did my first jump by s/l with a mark 1. At the time I was told the only place that did that was Indiantow FL. Are there any other who never jumped a t 10 or chepo north of FL sooner ?
  3. trying to explain the herd boogie to a modern yuppie jumper is like trying to explain BASE to an insurance lawyer.
  4. Las vegas is ok and somtimes cheap
  5. Bring back the strato star 180 sq. ft. of on heading ground thumping joy of a canopy. I think paraflite is missing out on all the fun! Maggot could proably get sponsered. They made a 215 pursuit that was used for base alot in the early 90's If i rember correctly the center cell was larber than all the rest. I have a friend that still jumps a 230 rw pursuit in his backup rig.You should see the video of the sniveling inflation from a 210 ft. cliff. cool stuff.
  6. I will mostly use 2 wraps of masking tape on the same lines I tailgate, This shouldn't interfear with the slider at alllQuote

  8. ANYONE WHO DOESN'T APPRECIATE THE JOB THAT JASON AND BILLY DO ON BRIDGE DAY SHOULD HAVE WENT THROUGH ONE OF ANDY'S. I MADE MY FIRST BASE JUMP ON THAT BRIDGE DAY AND WAS SO TURNED OFF WITH THE EXPERIENCE I DIDN'T DO ANOTHER FOR 8 YEARS. I FINALY TRIED IT AGAIN AND HAVE BEEN TO 3 MORE BRIDGE DAYS, TF 3 TIMES AND MOAB TWICE, AND HAVE HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME I WOULD RATHER BASE THAN SKYDIVE.
  9. I think watching my shadow on W S with the river on the other side is about as much fun as I can stand, also having to look both ways for traffic cracks me up!
