  1. If that is the case then most people are idiots!!! "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  2. I could have sworn I saw them talking about it on one of the PIA videos the DSE? put on you-tube. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  3. Exactly, if you don't like it don't jump there. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  4. preferably stable "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  5. Number 9 would drive me crazy... "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  6. Can some one clarify the nomenclature for me. By double action are you referring to a SOS system, or a the two handle system seen on most sport rigs? I did my student progression on a vector II with seperate reserve and cutaway handles, I am very thankful that I didn't have to change systems when I got my own gear. That would have tweeked my head!! "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  7. I think you are mistaken. There is only one dude changing the light bulb, the rest are all freefliers, they are just filming! "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  8. [catty] Reaaaaaaaarrrrrrr Hisssss [/catty] "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  9. Fedex hires college kids around here. They sneak booze on the job and drop kick boxes into the trailers. Heavy boxes get throw through teamwork! "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  10. Do you mean it runs out of flare in your opinion? It is really amusing how subjective canopy flight is. I have jumped a 150 pilot loaded about 1.25 and pilot 140 loaded at 1.35 for the past couple of jumps. I found the pilot 140 to have tons of bottom end flare. Definetly not a swoop monster, but I got pretty long surfs on it doing straight in approaches and double fronts. I would be happy to jump all three in a 150 or 140 any day of the week! "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  11. I know, because I just hit the reply, but you already knew that. Fast, thank you. I will check that thread out! "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  12. Condoms Advil Penicillin Astroglide "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  13. What did you use to design the images of the formations? "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  14. turn you into the wind? You are joking right? The canopy doesn't care what the uppers are doing. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  15. So the PD label adds some sort of a mystical quality to the Saber2? Of the three I liked it the least, it dove more in turns and was more fun to fly, but I could get my bedsheet to open on heading more times in a row than the saber2!! "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  16. Tell her that you are going to have an act of god, a stroke, because she is so fucking stupid. This is your sign from god to get a pizza stone and make your own pizza instead of that cardboard crap that pizza hut and dominos peddles. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  17. Where did you go for your automotive training? The type R vtech school of NAWSSSSS?!?!?!?! On a side note if you drain synthetic at the regular 3k interval you aren't taking full advantage of it and you are simply wasting cash. It is designed for much longer drain intervals, but I recomend changing the oil filter half way through and toping the oil off at the same time. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  18. Why don't you demo all three, the safire2, the sabre2, and a pilot.
  19. We only stitched my lower on the top where it is attached to the brake setting loop. I am only going to finger trap the excess on the bottom because it drove me nuts when I spent all the time picking the bar tack from the original lowers only to find that there wasn't much slack in there to play with!! "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  20. I had the lower lines replaced on my hornet and now there is a lot of excess. After I get the toggles where I was them I am going to get my rigger to sew an extra loop of tape on the back of the riser to stow the increased amount of excess. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  21. I don't believe that is completely correct, at least if we are talking about the USPA licenses. According to the 2007 SIM a C license requires 25 landings
  22. So did the person who built ours!!! You are better off landing in the grass because that shit hurts even after you rake it. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  23. Are you 190 with gear, or with out? Wait on the gear. Try to rent some gear from the dz that you can use to step down to smaller sizes. Get your instructors involved!! You may find that 1:1 is too much to handle, or you may find it very comfortable and you may be upset if you bought a 210 or 220 instead. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

    Sooooo...

    A suit made from the skins of missing packers... "It puts the canopy in the bag or it gets the hose again" "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  25. Extreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemeeeeee!!!! If I had a buck for every night of my NJ child hood spent high as a kite in WC waiting for a huge sack of sliders I would be a rich man. Those were good times. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
