It's been super foggy all morning, wouldn't doubt if that played a role It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

Not a photo, but a piece of footage I like a lot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HnyT5NJiQc I'm still practicing (and getting better at) handling/exporting the footage to preserve it's awesomeness. Still nothing like watching this sunset straight from the camera through HDMI to a good TV It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

I had my CX100/baby death resting on a desktop and something got set on top of it, breaking the silver plastic threaded piece on the camera (with the BD, the front of the camera rests ~.25 inches off the ground). After a great deal of (very) careful sealing/bonding/gluing/clamping, my baby death is now permanently fixed to my CX100. I wish I had documented the process for sharing purposes, but the way I "rebuilt" it should I ever have some riser slap or a collision, that entire piece of plastic will break off, lens and adapter ring and all. Actually, I would venture to argue that even with metal step-up rings, this is the worst damage the CX100 could suffer (if it's in a good box) in these situations because of how it is built. However I believe whoever made the argument for plastic step-up rings has made the strongest point... it'd be nice to be able to just screw a back-up on and keep going.

There is a very large difference between a person with 50 jumps wearing a camera helmet, and a person with 2000 jumps on high performance canopies performing a swoop. It's not 'recommended' that you make low turns under your canopy... most swoops are very far from 'low turns'... they simply finish low. Swooping is not ignoring recommendations. It's an entirely separate discipline within the sport, just as is belly-flying and wingsuiting. Most of these camera-flying swoopers (ahem) have actually put lot of time, practice, work, money, care, and safety into refining and (continually) improving their skills. It's not (supposed to be) a death-defying dive towards the earth, pulling out of it as late as possible... it is a precision maneuver with a flying machine. Look around at many large (and small) dropzones, and you'll more than likely see a "normal" landing area and a "high performance" landing area. The "low turn" area is usually over by the ambulance somewhere. It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

1st: That's very cool/fun 2nd: 4 years seems like a long time to prepare and organize for a swoop that made it but a fraction of the way through this hole; this gave me a very empty feeling. On the whole I'm not impressed at all... jealous, yes but I would have been pretty mad if I woke up at 5:30am to watch that. I must be one of those skydivers that "doesn't like to get up early."

I've been averaging 10-12 jumps a weekend right now, and that's WITH the weather... as for working, not so much has been going on... but it's been enough to pay off all the fun jumps I've been doing in between. And hell yes to packing on the short bus, it's even more fun to step it up a notch and pack on the blue van! Also, if this is the unofficial pre-registration for the Byron swoop meet, sign me up. It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

Seems the Byron jumpers are the only norcal jumpers that figured out Hollister has been jumping every weekend... we've even been seeing some back-to-backs filled with up jumpers! Today was the first day we've missed in quite some time... It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

I would like to disagree ever so slightly... I think the true genius lies in the fact that he tagged all the people on that list in the photo. Well played, indeed. It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

-salute- It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

ok so where's the video again ?? I'm trying to burn my mental image to disk, I can't figure it out never leave your house to stalk the ex without your camera! there's a lesson for you to mature! Haha, never again! If only the damn iPhone camera didn't suck so bad... Conveniently, the friend who's apartment i was headed to is the one I'm moving in with, so if I ever do go by her apartment again, it would actually be considered stalking.

Funny, you're pretty much right on... except i realize it. Or realizED it... I was pretty much over it until I heard about them... then I was a bit sad again. All I did was mention his previous infidelities to some of her friends, and the rest pretty much worked itself out. It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

Kinda sad that he feels the need to revel in her apparent misfortune, and feels the need to seemingly brag about it online It is, definitely. Like I said, I was totally honest and always try to maintain a good friendship-- I try not to burn any bridges, but i feel like she walked back and forth across the bridge with a few cans of gasoline and left me standing there with a blowtorch, then stood on the other side and begged for it. It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

[alright i deleted it because it was quite a bit of ridiculous bragging] Summary: I saw my ex and her ex fooling around after she dumped me claiming to want to be alone... She spent a long time lying, pursued those lies after she dumped me, I got super depressed, now I'm better and it's all steadily coming back to haunt her, and I am honestly pretty happy about it. She's always wanted to live in hawaii, i just got a job offer Sorry for those that got here late! It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

Alright, I thought that was gonna happen in Season 2, so that made the surprise now THAT much more intense. I don't know what to say. That was the most twisted crazy ending to a show I've ever seen. DAMN YOU ARTHUR. It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

We're on-demanding the last couple episodes to catch people up/get in the mood. Arthur Mitchell is going to DIE. It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

Very true, i appreciate it! But it's okay, fuck this video It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

Yeah, had to rip the footage from a DVD after it went through the linear system so it looked like crap to begin with. Add my lack of exporting knowledge/video treatment, and you got yourself some grade C- video Dunno what software you're using to rip DVDs, but Handbrake is awesome and has a deinterlace setting that is just a check box away. Then I'll add another check-mark to the "don't know what i'm doing" column, because Handbrake is prexactly what I used... I'll understand this video editing thing someday, I promise It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

**shudder** I have BAD, fuzzy memories of a camelback full of Rockstar and Vodka at the dz once when i couldn't jump Had myself a similar day snowboarding with a Camelback of Goldshlager and apple cider. It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

Set the cruise control, recline the driver's seat all the way and drive with your feet from the back seat. If you realllllly wanna get the blood pumpin', buckle yourself into the back seat for a while It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye
