Great book called "how to tell if you need Bach surgery". Great diagrams showing nerve routes and what tests are required. GREAT explanations with diagrams. L5 surgery here and jumping next month.

Is this a "do it yourself" book on back surgery? I will check it out.

Just some post info on this...

I went for Bowen therapy last week at a local wellness center and have been pain free for a week. There is a little tightness in my back but for the most part the pain is gone.

I have 2 more sessions to go to before we re-evaluate things. I stronly suggest if you have any sciatic nerve irritation that you check into Bowen therapy as it seems to have worked for me in a short time. I cannot say how long it will last but i am happy with the short term outcome as of now.

I also have a MRI next week as well to see if there is anything else going on in there to rule out other things.

Just thought i would update this thread.

Thanks everyone for your input. I am going to seek out a Physiotherapist and apply the other good suggestions when appropriate.

Thanks again!

Mr Ianharrops suggestion was to try and remove that stick from your ass!

Will try that also Kyle

Was wondering if anyone had some suggestions for good treatment for sciatic nerve issues?

I did search the topic and found posts dating 5 years ago but was wondering if there were any new treatments.

I have been seeing a chiropractor on a regular basis and has been helping but i still have irritations. I also tried accupuncture, mind you only three occasions, and have had numerous massage treatments. I have been trying to stretch every morning and night as well.

Has anyone had experience with one of those decompression tables or what ever they are called that stretch you out?

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!!

Hey!

Just a short note to acknowledge Cookie Composites for their great customer service.

I had a shipment come to me via an international courier and through no fault of Cookie Composites it was later than the promised delivery time, which was no real big deal as it was only a day late. I was informed by Cookie that i would be receiving a credit for the shipping, which i did.

Just a short note to thank Cookie for their honesty in extending the credit as I probaby would not have known otherwise and all their great customer support. Not to mention their products
Regards,
Dallas

Thanks everyone for your input.

Hey Everyone,

Which Mirage G4 container is the best fit for a Optimum143 and a Katana135?

I used the mirage site to choose the last container sizing it was less than perfect so i'm looking for some other input. Thank you for your time.

Cheers!

Heading to Maui in March and have not been there before and was wondering if I could get some recommendations for hotels, activities, and good food. THANKS!

I ordered two suits from them this spring, a multi speed freefly suit and a camera suit. In the development of the suits there were a few emails back and fourth that were promptly addressed. They arrived before my quoted delivery time and were accompanied by some "deepseed" bucks as appreciation for my order. These suits fit me perfectly and were as indicated on their website. I have jumped these suits enough to know that they are going to stand up and are happy with their performance. Two of my fellow jumpers have ordered thru deepseed and are happy as well.

I have also recently received an email from Liam (deepseed) asking for any feed back on the suits to assist in further development of his products.

I cannot comment on the RW suit they produce, sorry. However I do recommend their products that I am using.

Just my opinion. Happy jumping!

I just picked the EOS REBEL XSi and have been playing with it for only a little while. Can anyone help me out with some setting recommendations for the best picture quality in the air?

Any idea if there is any video up yet? or where it can be found?

Thanks

Thanks everyone for your time, it is very much appreciated! I have contacted Neil and am eagerly awaiting his reply.

Can you post the serial numbers for the other components please.

Blues!

I am ordering a new Mirage container and wanted some feedback for the best container size for a PD Optimum 143 and a Stiletto 150.

I will obviously be getting Mirage to recommend but wanted some "field" feed back.

Thanks All!!

Can someone point me in the direction that i may find those pictures of malfunctioning main canopies used in training students?

I contacted PIA and they said they no longer carry them.

Thanks!

I just got a helmet with a top mount from Cookie Composites and it is an amazing work of art. I got to use it for the first time in Eloy the last two weeks and could not be happier and also got lots of comments from other jumpers in regards to how clean it is.

Well worth checking them out and they have been excellent to work with!

Thanks for your help! I have noticed that some of the other settings i have used changed when i turned the camera off so i hope the other post is correct that they stay on for 12 hours. I'll try it out.

Thanks again.

In regards to the reflection. It is like the inside of the polarized filter is mirroring the face of the wide angle lense. The cookie liquid lense is a blue color as you probably know and i have to wonder if it would be better black (less reflective color).

It only seems to do this with the sun coming in on certain angles into the lense. I guess once i get good at making sure the sun is behind me then that won't be an issue (damn newbies... LOL).

Thanks for your help so far! I'll try those settings as soon as i can. If you can think of more tips i'll take them.

Cheers!

Hi all,

Can you guys offer a newbie some advice on settings when using a Sony HC3 with a cookie liquid 5 lense combination.

In a few test jumps i noticed a reflection of the lense ring in the video. Also, when the camera gets a glimse of the sun it goes out of focus.

I have the settings all on auto.

Thanks for your help.

I have a sabre2 170 which i bought with reportably 300 jumps on it and have put 100+ on it since and have had a few opening like you have described. I had a PD rep. show me how she packs and i haven't had a problem since.

I pack it the way their manual says and don't push the nose back into the pack job and have a little more slider pulled outward and have beautiful openings. I just had it relined so i am eager to jump it!! Damn Canadian winters!! Arizona, i'll see you in March.

All in all i am very happy with the canopy, and this input is just my opinion.

Blue Ones!!
