My friend Tim is a very cool guy he was in the Airforce for many years and was special ops. for quite a few years. So i guess hes really "educated" on air speed and what you can and cannot do. I told him today that myself and a friend of mine hit 220 this weekend doing a head down. His Pro-track wasnt on the fritz we were just haulin Ass. Once i metion this he immediatly says "impossible" he says that there is no way you could go faster then 170. Saying thats what terminal velocity is and you cant fall any faster without propultion. If someone could make clear exactly what Terminal Velocity really means that would help. Back on track... I also mention about the guy going up to 110,000 ft and making a jump and while he was in freefall he broke the sound barrer (sp)?... Once again he says "Impossible" going that speed would rip the skin off your body the guy would have to have armor up the wazoo to withstand even half the speeds and he was telling me how pilots cant eject that fast cause they would die and bla bla bla. He also mentions hot air ballons cant go above 40,000ft i tried arguing but im not educated enough to argue so all i had to say is "Well the pro-track said i was goin 220 and that i read an article about the guy doing the freefall and that a girl was also going to do it. After that i shut my mouth tucked my tail between my legs and ran straight to here. Someone please help me so i can Win this arguement i need help A.S.A.P Thanks for taking the time to read this, dan =)

I jump at Richmond, and this season we have a Grand Caravan! it fits 19 and will take us to 13-14.5 in about 16-20mins depending on load size and a few other things. I think shes a sweet plane, the door is big enough to launch 4 ways. I belive the max you can have outside the door is 4 because of an "incident" we had at the boogie last sept. I love the plane and its a fun ride

ill be there =) the whole time

Guys and Gals....and clay. your all putting to much effort in trying to figure out why they just added a 2. How hard is it to come up with a name that is fun and exciting out of the blue isnt it much easier insted of racking your brain trying to figure out a name to just add a 2. Everyone is familiar with the crossfire name and knows what to expect from the canopy if they liked it hey they might want to try the sequel. Just my thoughts on the matter =) dan-

Im very pissed right now i just got off work from my shitty ass job delivering pizza to half the state of michigan. I get 2$ per delivery plus tip so i dont make shit money and my boss has me do dishes and shit and i dont get paid at all for that. So today i make 11 deliverys not bad usually about 50-60 bucks i count my money at the end of the night and it comes up to i made about 30 bucks. IM SO FUCKING PISSED what the fuck am i supposed to do with 30 bucks that wont get me to the fuckign dz and back i might as well use the fucking money to make origami out of because i need so much fucking money that little shit isnt gonna work and if i hold on to it it will just burn up in gas money. I HATE MONEY. why the hell cant i have a good damn job with somewhat good pay this is bull shit im a hard worker i dont slack and i dont miss days but this asshole has to screw me over and only work me 2 days a week when i told him atleast 4 times i NEED money so DAMN bad work me more days I NEED MONEY and his greasy ass tells me yeah hell work me more days and i have the least amount of days out of anyone hes got one more chance this week when he makes the schedual he pulls this shit again im going to take my size 12 boot and ram it so far up his ass he'll taste the pizza grease from off his dirty ass floors. GOD IM PISSED

0:3:0 weather sucked, fun times though =)

its 1:19 am and my only suggestion is a wooden board with a nail through it go outside and smack the dog in the side of the head. Then knock on the owners door and smack him in the side of the head to for being a dumbass. OR Plan B: Gather up rocks from around the house and throw them at the dog...simple yet effective Or Plan C: Knock on your neighbors door and wake his ass up and tell him next time he lets his dog out at 1am to bark your going to burn down the building. Just my opinion

Nice! i like it!! (two thumbs up)

well some people get loose tounges when drunk, this girl happened to get a loose shirt. Lucky me i had my camera. Well atleast she famous i guess =) As far as revealing pics of me go im not the kind of person you want to see naked so consider me doing you all a favor

I cant agree with you more. Each day i spend at the Dz my life just keeps getting better and better not only are all my friends that much closer but the experiences are priceless and i learn a little more. I like to think because i got into the sport at such a young age its helped me mature a little faster. I have the advice of all the other more experienced people to help me coast along. Only bad thing i can really think of is i can never goto the bar when everyone goes out which kinda sucks. However the benifits outweigh the Losses tremendously and i definatley thank all the people i've met and have yet to meet on bein cool to me and treating me like one of the guys and not just some kid Dan-

i just dont see how an almost 50 yr. old man can take a disney character and turn into him. He could be on some good drugs."pixie dust" its just crazy how far some people can take things.

I wasnt going to comment on this because this could drag on and on and on, but how can you say the Black Panthers have a right to be pissed off at "crackers" first off its Whites,caucasians, or something non-derrogatory (sp?). They have as much a reason to be mad at whites as the K.K.K. has to be mad at blacks. Modern day society is not opressive to any race you could say we "grew out of it". The only problems I see now is black people saying they dont get a job because they were black. Thats sad that they will use that sad excuse to try and bend the employer into hiring them. A white man and a black man go for an interview the white man may be more qualified ,but if the black man gets a bug up his ass he could say thats "racial discrimination" and the employer would be in a world of shit. Im not racist i have a few black friends so dont get the wrong impression. Its just the fact that you can be so ignorant as to say "the K.K.K can suck my dick." Does that make you any higher in the social ladder then them? I dont agree with what the Klan does i think its wrong but they have been around since before our time and unfortunatley i dont think they're going anywhere...unfortunatley. So insted of hating them and saying Fuck the clan, just ignore them i dont think they are going to go out of they're way to convert you over to their belifes. Honestly how many times have they had a rally in your front yard? Im not very informed about the history of The B.P or the Klan but i do know its time for this "Because of my race im different" bull shit to stop. People shouldnt have to fear getting sued for racial discrimination, and people should be discriminated because of they're ethnic backround... im all fired up sry guys just let me have my moment.

that is just wrong on so many levels..
