  1. Mine too. BI I have a BoneHead Havok, largest size. Manages to fit OK. Everyone else that tried to wear it got "bouncy helmet" in the air. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  2. Oh if only the ground were made of Charmin... I would do some most interesting things with my front risers.
  3. No unstowed brake on opening here either, just one control line in a neat little knot after release, though. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  4. After the beer light came on one night we had a FJC party. Everyone brought their first tandem video or AFF video. Some of those skygods' were hilarious! Made for a very fun party. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  5. Boston sure got up in the 100's too this year. I was up there in Cambridge for two weeks in July. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  6. Hey, now that would be a wonderful thread! Everybody post their x-rays (or CAT Scans) and we'll have a contest! bbarnhouse, Skymedic, and I could be the judges! ltdiver (got some knarley CAT Scans of my own around here somewhere...) I think TomAilleo would win hands down. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  7. This sounds like the TShirtHell concept. They have kids for boys, girls, and baby!* Maybe we can get someone as a custom screen printer and DZ.com can be the place to buy skydiving shirts (i.e: "Skydivers are Good 'til the Last Drop", etc), with the orders forwarding to the screen printer of choice? (*hint: highly insensitive site) ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  8. Hmm... Dangit ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  9. Oh wow, I didn't even know that existed. I tend to gloss over sidebar navigation. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  10. Gross! LOL Poor Sebazz...he will DEFINITELY have some sort of heart attack if he has to endure that sort of support, 'eh? hehe Off to meet the wizard, Please! No aeroexcrementation on this thread! The world's oceans are choking from methane poisioning! Think about our children! ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  11. Those little thumnails on the left are tiny! What do y'all look like? I'm your average fugly skydiver.
  12. Raleigh-Durham? Hmm... I/T mecca. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  13. Hmm.. Jacksonville, FL is as far east as you can go.. has lots of employment, and is close to Deland. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  14. Hmm... needs to be near lots of nice DZs... and I'm sure you want to skydive in the winter... so I'm guessing somewhere in Flordia or Texas...... My guess is Jacksonville, FL. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  15. Come to San Marcos this weekend instead, then. They're bringing back the $12 jump tickets and this weekend they will be doing high-altitude jumps from the pretty purple Otter with the purple carpet. Check it out ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  16. I guess it's not as bad as naming your kid Moon Unit. Wonder how Moon Unit Zappa feels right now? ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  17. F. I'm at work and can't click. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  18. I thank my lucky stars after all these years my parents still lo... well, er... tolerate each other. When I was 10 I was informed "we're only here because were too Godd-'d poor to get divorced!" Sarcasm runs deep in my family. They just celebrated 40 years last Christmas. Can you imagine being married, going home to the same old thing, for 40 years? Ouch! ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  19. Hmm... since I'm a 1099 contractor I went with Unicare. Haven't ever submitted a claim to them, though. I guess if I get to the hospital I'll make sure to not wear any GO FAST! stuff or change out of the skydiving t-shirt. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  20. Test-i-fy! ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  21. I discovered the same thing not too long ago. I have those velcro-less toggless; you need to be extra careful with the excess control line on those. I tend to put the excess control line through my end riser loop right under the slink, then over the top of the toggle and under the steering line before I slide it into the pocket. Then I yank on the steering line a bit to make sure that I set the brake properly and it won't slip out on the next opening. If I'm not careful, like I was on one jump, and I wrap the excess over the steering line, instead of under and away from it, I had a pretty nasty knot to untie when I released the breaks. It's pretty ugly when you have to harness-shift and squeeze risers together to keep the canopy somewhat stable so you can undo the knot. You can make things a bit easier by stowing your breaks right after you land. Makes life a bit less complicated when you have to start packing. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  22. Hey bro! We were together on the flight from St. Louis! I'm "perfectly fine" now... you can't tell I seriously biffed anymore. Man I sure did look like hamburger meat when I got out of the hospital. That biplane KICKED SO MUCH ASS! Never got the photos from it, though... I guess they are lost . My friend Lance (also camera dude) didn't get his either. -C ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  23. Dude! I was on the first one of these flights to Champaign from St. Louis! :) It was one day before the convention so it was only two skydivers and 8 whuffos. We were talking loud enough for everyone to hear. Got some turbluence near Champaign that kind-of unsettled everyone. We managed to talk the stewardess (she was a hottie... nice boobies) into doing a tandem. It is kind of funny... that plane is not much bigger than an Otter... I was checking for a spot, looking at the airport windsock, etc. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  24. It was missing a flight attendent when it landed. The airline and the NTSB presumed she was sucked out of the aircraft somewhere over the Pacific Ocean. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
  25. Yeah those little Christmas Crackers look like they could take out an Airbus. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
