  1. Just after reading this forum i find this for sale on ebay [/url]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Skydiving-DVD-Mental-in-Morocco-Skydive-freefly_W0QQitemZ9131708493QQcategoryZ109029QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
  2. Agree with everything AFFI said, welcome onto the well trodern path. Enjoy.
  3. I think it was a question of dump or be dumped.
  4. Melodramatic, of melodrama. Main Entry: melo·dra·ma Pronunciation: 'me-l&-"drä-m&, -"dra- Function: noun Etymology: modification of French mélodrame, from Greek melos song + French drame drama, from Late Latin drama 1 a : a work (as a movie or play) characterized by extravagant theatricality and by the predominance of plot and physical action over characterization b : the genre of dramatic literature constituted by such works 2 : something resembling a melodrama or having a melodramatic quality - melo·dra·ma·tist /"me-l&-'dra-m&-tist, -'drä-/ noun You knew this is what i mean in my first thread but because you are looking for arguement you pick up on my bad english. It is probably the time of your red pants.
  5. I have seen it done many times in BASE
  6. English is not my first language, you understand my meaning.
  7. How is holding onto his leg nearly killing him? The worst that could have happened is a tumbled exit. As if jeb couldnt have delt with that. He didnt "nearly kill him" by holding onto his leg. With regard this forum.I wouldnt have thought base jumpers could be so mellow dramatic
  8. No offence taken, if that wasn't a Mike Worthers bit of marketing I will walk the length of the high street with my trousers down screaming "bum out , bum out."
  9. What a croc of shit! This is just an advert for The freefall addicts.

    Just leave your skydiving mentality at the door. Cheers, -C. I had no idea that there was a friction between skydivers and base jumpers. I have been thinking of base jumping for some years, just recently I have been thinking of not much else, I have been doing my research and thinking of booking a FJC. After one day of reading BASE forums i think i have changed my mind.
  11. I would say a whuffo tandem student has the same chance of fully understanding the dangers of a hibrid tandem as they do of fully understanding the dangers of a tandem. The whuffo is putting their trust in the experienced proffesional to make the decisions that best suit their interest. I don't think we fully understand the dangers involved until we have knowledge of our equipment and our limitations which takes 100's of jumps. When I had around 50 jumps I still thought i was likely to kill myself at any time. I now know this wasn't the case. I'm sure that most first time tandem students are of the opinion that what they are doing is incredibly dangerous. They have no point of refference, thats one of the jobs of the TI. Sorry for the bad english. It's not my mother tongue
  12. To answer my own question, they are not having the turbo let this year. They are getting a G92 it arrives next weekend.
  13. Ive been jumping out at Lillo in Spain, One of the guys there Pablo is an AFFI, tandem master freefly coach, world champion in Canopy piloting has 3,000+ jumps and is an all round nice guy. He is 19 years old! How did he do it? His father is one of the DZ founders / owners also tandem master etc. There are pictures on the wall in the DZ bar of Pablo doing his first skydives aged 12. Allright for some.
  14. Can anyone tell me what date the Turbo let returns to Sibson, I'm sure its in March sometime. Thanks.
  15. I poo myself on outside of plane once.

    That cafe is probably in better nick now than before it was burnt down. It wasn't the best.
