Give me a call when you are around.

PM Sent with cellphone number.

Cant give away too much details at this point and dont wish to use the forum for any advertising type of post, but Im looking for skilled canopy pilots / swoopers interested in being part of an exhibition team for a mayor extream sports event to take place in Chile.

If you're interested and would'nt mind spending a couple of days in one of the most beautiful ski resorts in the planet while being paid for having fun... please PM me for details.

Thanks and be safe!

I shall take my capacity for rational thought elsewhere.

Doesnt seem youll be carrying to much weight... you should be able to go pretty far without getting too tired

Are you saying that there's nothing unhealthy about having a hobby or that there's nothing unhealthy about not having the motivation to do anything but mope around the house because you've had to take a month off from your new hobby?

Are you serious? Or is it your Dalai Lama inner-self kicking in again?
Let me put it this way... My kids get really anxious the day before xmas because they cant wait to open their presents. At night, they cant even sleep!!
After Xmas, they even sleep with their toys next to their beds!!!
MAN!!! I have just realized my kids are insane!!!! They must be pretty messed up to be like that dont you think????



BTW, I need to go play the lotto... can you enlighten me with a couple of numbers please?

Seriously, dude, you're the one who jumped in to try to get the last word in a debate that was clearly over.

Debate? Last word?
I've been making fun of you since post #1!! I aint debating!! There's a difference you know??

And I know someone that says Poo

like in Winky Winky Bum Bum Poooo????

probably a typo... they missed the "f" in "art"
BTW, didnt it say... to cash the prize, pull the finger??

If you disagree with my suggestion, that's your problem, not mine.

If this was really the case, this thread would only have ONE post from you, or two at the most... but it seems that you have been struggling for acceptance since post #1

but I don't see any intelligent rebuttals to anything I've said

Dude... dont expect answers to be intelligent when you havent said anything intelligent yourself. You have only explained the fact that too much involvement for something you dont know (sport, GF, job... etc) at the beggining is not always a good thing to do. Ok.. great... you didnt discover america or anything but ok.. I give you that and I get your point.
The thing is that what you did was like giving a 15 y.o. kid a full lecture on life, sex, morality and spirituality, when the only thing the kid wanted was to check out the girls bathroom through the window.

That reminds me of a very funny story that happened to me in school...
Me and my best friend were caught looking inside the girls bathroom through a window after PE class, so we were sent to the highschool principal (this was like in 7th grade). They called our parents saying that we would be suspended for two days becuase of our behaviour and that they should come to school to pick us up. (At this point I thought ... man!! we are in soooo much trouble!!) When my dad and my best friend's dad got there and were told about this whole thing and what we did, they looked at each other and told the principal: "What?! looking at the girls through the window???... cmon!! call us if they are caught looking at naked boys!! not girls!!"
... we all went skiing for the next two days and had one of the best days I can remember

Lighten up brother... Salud!! (Thats "cheers" in spanish btw)

(pointing to the sky) or seek for the truth out there...
[ET voice] HEEELLLOOOOOOOOOOO [/ET voice]


Ok.. im going to work... Dalai Lama here wont answer until late night, when we are all asleep and cant answer back. Oops!

I'm trying to use a little tough love to set him on a steadier, less rocky course than many of us traveled, and all I'm getting for my trouble--not surprisingly--is grief from a bunch of deluded cultists who desperately need to keep believing in the only "truth" they know.

Oh my... now im depressed...
Dude... you should apply for Dalai lama or some shit. Youve enlightened so many with your wisdom!!

No wonder why you film yourself dancing alone at home... yeezzz...

Send an email to this guy. He answered the only post monoverde did, perhaps he might know him or have a phone number.

Be safe

There is video.

PLEASE!! dont make me beg!!!

Actually... my very first thought as I was leaving the wall behind me was... "shit... I should be going faster!!"
Felt like Willy Coyote there for a second

well..i play hockey...but it will never match the feeling i get when jumping.

Well... you can try jumping some cracks on a glacier... its fun, very cheap.. and incredibly stupid!

oh.. tell him that he has to pay for the first 10 jump tickets then!

sorry for the misunderstanding...
btw... you have a sister?

If she has a sister.. let me know!!!

It's not a higher plane of existence or a superior way of life; it's just a sport.

Lindercles and karenmeal said it perfectly.
Dont know about you Douva and I can respect Skydiving is just a sport for you... dude.. I can even respect anyone that can drop skydiving at some point in their lifes (they are probably smarter than most of us), but that does not mean that a vast mayority in here feel that skydiving is more about a way of life rather than just a sport, and you should not only remember that there is a lot of us that feel that way but you should practice some respect too.
The boy is happy about this new sport he is going into. Give him a break.

That admonition goes double for the "newbies." It's not wise to get more emotionally invested in a new sport than you would in a new relationship. Take it slow until you learn the terrain.

If you think about it... its not even wise to jump from a plane in the first place!

Dude.. for what I know, after skydiving since 17 yo... marrying at 25, having two kids, and divorcing... I can tell you now, 15 years later, that skydiving is about the only constant in my life that has brought peace to my mind and heart, and great happiness and sharing to me and my kids at some point.

Even if Skydiving is just a sport... sports are amazingly important and usually overlooked. They can make ALL of the difference in your life... It did to me.

What!?!?!... no video of the potato shot???? That would've made my day!

and Honestly... If your GF does not feel for you the way floridadiver81 feels about skydiving, I feel very sorry for you... really.

a lot of you would be getting the "You're creeping me out" talk.

Know MANY happy couples that call each other at least once a day when apart because they miss each other soooo much. Keeping up with the analogy... I do watch a vid or two on youtube at night before going to sleep, or read a couple of threads in here... thats MY way of giving the "I miss you" call during the week before going to sleep

Be safe

yup.... looks like my week schedule of activities

It still sounds VERY SEXY!!

WOOOOHOOOO!!!

Thanks!! Im so happy right now Thanks porpoishead!!
Thanks keka!!

"Un abrazo" ((((hugs)))) to you all!!
