  1. Are they bearded clams? "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  2. Not for any reason!!! If I am actually being attacked I will put a woman into a restraint hold, but I would never ever strike a woman. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  3. Dicks sporting goods sells a real nice knock off under armor that I bought, it was way less than under armor.
  4. That is awesome!!! Congrats. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  5. I missed that, but it doesn't change the point I wanted to make. When you demo a reserve you still get a lot more choice about where to land it, same as a main. It isn't like you are demoing your reserve into some persons back yard bbq, right? That would be some hands on training. Either way I wasn't trying to preach, I just wanted to provide some food for thought. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  6. If you don't want to land a pilot 132, what makes you think that you can land the smaller reserve? After I fight a malfunction, cutaway, and am faced with landing in some one's tiny backyard I want to make sure I have all the help I can get. Most of the time I get to choose a real nice place to land my main, if you're flying your reserve you might have lost that option.

  7. Naughty.... "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  8. No, it sounds like she doesn't pay enough rent for her apartment. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  9. Gábor, I am starting to think that you have a crush on me. Get a grip. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  10. Yes. It killed Chris Martin from TN. That sucks. What about a fail safe for a jump like that? You drop it and it cuts away? "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  11. sky dive then scuba fine, scuba then altitude... not so fine. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  12. You are putting the quotation marks in the wrong spot... "sexist" ads... not "sexist ads" "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  13. G forces put the lights out? "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  14. No, I read some canopy book first. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  15. Move the pointer down, to where it say flare maybe? "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  16. I did, you're right, it was tight. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  17. Funny, I thought the same thing!!! Looks more like frost to me. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  18. I did my 1040 a long time ago, since they were giving me 3k back. I have been dragging my feet on the CT and NJ returns I have to file though. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  19. You could donate it to me, I will give it a loving home, and will jump it. I will send pictures. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  20. "My trailers got a propane heater" "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  21. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  22. No don't sell it. First, economically, your going to get your ass handed to you when you sell it. Second, 1.07 is a pretty conservative wing loading, however you must balance that with the fact that the canopy is under a 150 so it is also consider high performance. It is a great canopy, and your going to like it tons more than your saber in my opinion. Just wait till your comfortable with the idea of flying it. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  23. Where is the endorsement for bullshit. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
  24. It is funny how much variety there is between different pilots. My opening on my pilot 170 are closer to the range of 600-800 feet, with the longer snivels more common. My openings are soft like yours, but my friends with smaller sizes (experinced jumpers and packers) get slammed by their pilot. Go figure. Overall I am very happy with my pilot. I really like the glide I can get out of it. The opening may be long but they are predictable, almost every one of the 130 opening on my pilot have been practically identical to each other. It flat turns real nice, but is still fun when you give the toggles more input. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P
