  1. I have close to 1000 tandems in the last 2 1/2 years and so far enjoyed all of them. I have flown the sigma 390's, 370's, Precision and the A2 with 0 malfunctions, and with 0 line twists. This year i started jumping the icarus 330 and have 250 jumps on these mains this season. I constantly have line twists on this canopy and i hate it. I had my first tandem chop last weekend on jump 16 of the day due to line twists. My personal main is a vx 79 in wich i have 500 jumps on it. I constantly look at my videos when i have line twists and body position is not the issue. If somebody can help me out with some advice to get through this problem i would greatly appreciate it.
  2. Get a Rawa!!!! its so damn comfortable, a decent price and like (2shay) i got mine from Aerostore this time last year, really nice people!
  3. Thats badass! A canadian aswell eh! My 100th was at Okanagon Skydive Adventures last July. My first trip out west. We did a 4-way hybrid! I'll never forget that jump!
  4. I just made my 500th skydive this past weekend at Skydive Toronto. We did a 2 plane cessna 182 sunset formation load succesfully completing a 10-way round. After holding this for about 5 seconds I was then attacked in freefall by three of my closest friends! So I was wondering what did you do on your milestone jumps? Oh ya, Thanks Mothergoose for making my jump happen, you really are my wingman!
  5. lol, welcome to the sport! its the first thing a think about when i wake up, and its the last thing i think about before i got to bed! I cant picture life without jumpin right now. ive done 472 jumps since last feb, 250 jumps since june.... and im only 21!!!!! I am currently cutting away my $50,000 a year job to go fly camera! So YES, you are not the only one to have these feelings and desires! my suggestion........ CUT AWAY!
