  1. my draft entry is in. would love to hear non judge comments if any care to include them. always lookin to do better. and thats my first video ever. I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  2. not hating on the FF suit companies, but wasn't it taught to wear clothing to be suitable for your skydive. so if your freeflying get less drag clothing but most of all I feel suits are made for accurate drag and safety. So whichever the choice make sure your handles are free of material. I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  3. having the HC-7 and already loving its quality, the review smashed my world. really great cameras and yes the cookie box is wonderful. heres a couple pictures of mine on a skysystems. I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  4. last picture shows were i put the cam eye button. hope that helps. - blue skies I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  5. Skysystems Nvertigo V model is an nice option. but you can put a cookie box on the Nvertigo X model let me know if you want to see my set up with the HC7-cookie box and Nvertigo X . I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  6. I currently have my hc7 on top of my Skysystems X. although it works well it would of been nice to of had the top portion flatter like the new Vertigo V helmet but it does work you can kinda see it on the top of my profile picture but if you care i can get a nice close up picture. I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  7. Great flying. See you in Texas I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  8. practice practice practice. thats what im doing.. I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  9. those are some serious claims no wonder you made a page just for this.. so lets see here... you started this topic cause of poor professional ethics. and in doing so hope that we would do the same in our professional life being it a job or just a professional gentleman.... You sir probably have the worst professional ethics in this discussion.. Seeing how professional you were you never would of addressed it in a manor to which enables shadows of doubt about the coder/web designer in a public forum to which the designer would never hear your cries of disapproval or questions. That seems about the most logical thing to do.. yes go cry a river to a online forum instead of trying to emit your thoughts directly.. but I'M SURE the web designer would never leave any contact information on his personal web page which you could of found easily. Now I don't know the designer personally meet him a couple times and chatted but I don't think he would of left you in the dark if you felt he was in the wrong. I personally could go through and address all your remarks but your a waste of air and its sad to say cause I truly thought that all skydivers were enablers not some dilouted washed out person that only enjoys finding and causing turmiol in our every growing sport. but there is no room for people like you in the sport. .... One thing I've understood from experience and of course I have barely any compared to the years the sports been active, but people who carry themselves in the manor you choose are often ones who don't like to listen because they've been there done that. we'll if our last issue told me anything its those been there done that attitude provided us with our death toll last year. oh and "doing the right thing is too easy in this case." is so true. so stop crying to a deaf ear and take your opinions to the person your so kindly bashing.. You sir enjoy and wake up on the other side of the bed, the sun is brighter you lame to fame hero - humble skydiver of skydiveswflorida I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  10. well you have my attention. *** I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  11. I don't know much about camera set up and how they relate to turbulence issues but from seeing your profile picture and guessing thats your hc1 with still mount seems like the camera is pushed into a turbulence area from where its located on your helmet. though it would be still pushed into that area when going HeadDown. but again would like to hear from others, was hoping to hear form a person that just uses this device only as a top mount. (a simple lens cap instead of a build in one and this issue would be closed... IMHO - thanks manufacture ) Keep the knowledge up *** I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  12. Would really like to hear about the HC7 performance from anyone else to see if they are encountering the same issues. Personally was hoping this camera to be a good solution to selecting a video recording device. As for now its doing a great job recording landings and taking stills. keep the information spreading. *** I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  13. I thought he was an astronaut posting from space Maybe someday you'll hear about me beating Joe Kittinger record but till then i'll be staying afloat high as a kite. lol thanks both for the warm welcome I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  14. This will make my first year on the site and in the sport. Of course like most goals are met and broken and surpassing these overwhelms the body. Always reminding myself not to get cocky and to listen before saying I know. etc.. Even with those reminders on my 88th jump I biffed it didn't "roll my ankle" but nice sprain was the first bad landing but could of been avoided with use of good judgment and proper pattern. Reason for detailing this is cause it was a very very stupid action and never should of occurred and I don't wanna come to this forum with a persona that details a person that doesn't show signs of listening by reason of his own progression. Cause those are IMHO the most dangerous people and listing here for all to see my poor judgment and lack of self control. Short Summary : poor pattern and low turn, leveled out above 30 feet but hadn't finished the turn, was supposed to do a 90 but ended up about 75 turn.. not going to go further cause its not about what i should of done.. cause I never should of been in that situtation cause my pattern should of been clean and my final above 100 feet. Never should of happened but again I am a learner and not here to show off, everyone makes mistakes and telling you mine re enforces how stupid it was and never putting myself into that position again. Otherwise see you out there at the DZ's or on the forums cause think I've started off pretty good. sense Oct. finished my AFF and completed my A, B license and 90 jumps, just got my rig a acouple weeks ago still waiting my actual main although been demoing my very same canopy . Blue skies Gavin *** I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
  15. Forum, Hope to hear more about this problem just bought a HC7 two weeks ago for filming landings and eventually plop it a top. Gavin, *** I believe a believer, not a lie from a liar.
