    I don't post here as much as I read so for what it's worth...sometimes you got to let the comments others make roll off like water on a ducks back. Experience really needs to be shared, even if it's not appreciated. Kind of like when I have younger jumpers lecturing me on the type of canopy I should be jumpin, usually with some exotic metal sticking out of some part of their body. My usual response is "20 years,no zippers." BSBD, Rainbo
  5. Yeah, Chris got the Readers Digest version down pretty good. Oh, Chris watch how you word your emails or you will make me look old, ok. The name came about, according to a founder, when Carl, Roger, and others in a group of young(then) skydivers were standing around on the DZ when the old S&A guys on the DZ remarked about their looks "that they looked like a bunch of freaks." Carl and Roger took this and applied it to their group in the name of the "Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers" a then extremely popular comic book series. Yes it is also true that long before the now popular discipline of freeflying that the Freak Brothers were experimenting with inverted flight techniques, and yes there are some very interesting video clips of us doing this. If you would really like to get a feel for the atmosphere of a convention then I recommend that you get a copy of Norman Kents "Freak Brother Convention" available on VHS and on his new DVD.
