    conscious

    What if you can extend our conscious (ourself) to that level? Around 5 years old I was able to look at one person and make that person or rather attach the conotation of beautiful or ugly to that person and change it as I've please. Now, if we assume or believe that we can get control over that level of choices (what we love, what we hate) the question is: how do we achieve that from where we are now? What's the road from here? I think that the 1st step is to start believing that we can get control over those parts (feelings, fear, what we like) that have control over us. And, if there really exists this road, the road that can take us (our conscious part) from where we are to that level of deepness, then this road has to start somewhere in our conscious part and it has to be experienced in 1st person and not in the 3rd person (3rd person - like an outside view). This is what I think and I'm just looking for some info if anybody else tried to find this road. Anyway, have fun, 1st person!

    If one person, believes that he can be 100% in control and he looks for the moments when he doesn`t have control and he makes a personal effort to try to understand why he doesn`t have the control and he fights to get the control, at the end he`ll be more in control (percentage wise) than an average Joe that just believes that he has a `sub something` that is in control over his choices and that`s just fine.

    Don't be weak in your believes, believe in yourself as a conscious self as much as I believe in you! Hahahaha sounds like religion but is not. I believe that behind *every* action, *every* choice you make, *every* belief you have, that there's a conscien person choosing to do so, doing it's best with what it has

    Is it the first thing to do, in order to be in full control: is to believe that you don't have something called "subconscious" that has control over you from time to time and to start looking on how to be 100% in control? Does it sound logical to you? Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  5. Thanks guys, it confirms my thougts. Somebody is doing some manipulative work to make packers feel bad. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  6. I'm talk about when you wrap the tail over the canopy and fold it few times before you put it on the ground. Is it a chance in frozen hell that the fold will lock on opening making it a cocoon lock? Like the packed "cocoon" is out of the bag and just the folded wrap prevents the canopy of opening.

  7. Does it really exit? I mean using your regular pro-packing quality that you find at each DZ professionals packers, is it really possible to create a wrap lock? Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

  9. Hey people, how many times the plane doesn't go up because you're missng an I (LOL) ..... HAHAHAHAH .... you're missing a jumper. Would the 8 people consider paying 2$ to rent a fun-jumper? I will try to do this idea. Rent a fun jumper. Half the price of the ticket and there's a fun jumper climbing with you. On the menu: In airplane fake beer for kewl photos, crazy atmosphere in the plane, singing your favorite song, crazy exits, belly or freefly or both or angel flight (angled flight). Light crew with kewl photos. More ideas to come. Go and rent a fun jumper. A message aproved by your local jumping whore. Now for a small price you can enjoy it for real. Hahahaha Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  10. Like there's no more love for skydiving at all. Everyone is more concern about how they make $ that they really hate eachothers while staying "professionals" (polite). There are also some idiots always doing stupid redundant pranks making everything worst. Do you have any ideas on how can this situation improve? Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  11. Out of wings, mirage, vector and javelin I prefer vector 3. I love the riser flap, the magnetic riser covers saves me few seconds on each pack, the closing loop doesn't deform the bag, the stowing of the excess brake lines is pretty fast to do and you have the true lock and I love it even more if it has risers that are a bit more rigid. Rigid feels good on a rig. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  12. There's a Canadian Urban myth that is propragated by the guys from CSPA that the size of elastics contribuates to the opening speed. Can anybody confirm or deny it. I think that give the fact that we have elastic free bags the value of this myth is questionable. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  13. Can somebody make this thread a sticky please? Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  14. I like it! Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  15. Just trying to learn and do something good at the dz where I work. What's a better model for calculating the separations between groups (constant separation between each group no matter what they do freefly/belly solo/2way/3way/4way) for a turbine dz? Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  16. Will test tomorrow! Thanks! Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  17. Hi guys, I`m having a vigil download tool and the vigil graph application and I can`t seem to make the software work. The download tool is connected to the computer and we have no errors regarding that. I can also access the unit information but I can`t seem to access the graphs and the jumps. Anybody has experience with this tool and software. The reason we`re looking into this one is because one of our staff is getting speed close to pop up speed while doing his 720 acording to his viso. We want to double check and also to learn how to use this tool. Regards, Jean-Arthur Deda. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  18. I think we both know why is this happening. The skydiving culture needs whatever we can get in order to survive (financially and population wise). That makes the treshold for acceptance to be lower. I mean how often to you see someone who starts that has his head on the right track? Young, Dum and full of cum is what we mostly get. Time and experience makes them wisers. And when they get wiser it already exists a new generation of skydivers that is ready to hate the wise ones. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  19. End Cells were badly educated. LOL. Low wingloading, slow and long opening, some canopy designs are more prome to end cell closures and God. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

  22. There's a sequence in Good Stuff from Joe Jennings where a guy is filmed by a camera placed in the canopy and the camera is faching down. Does anybody knows how was that made with respect to openings and safety? Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  23. I like the 3 list idea. What do you do when a person is on more than 1 list? Let's say for instance and instructor Mr. Versatilium is on the Tandem and video list. Does he take the 1st job found for him and he's removed from the other lists rotation until the end of the job? Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
  24. I think you're right. Considering that the guy had 0 linetwists then without disconeting and connecting badly the risers and then doing a shity pack job you can't fly backwards
  25. My brother from another planet thank you. Thanks and Keep it real like you know the deal, yo! Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
