It won't be long before I'm shopping for one. I only care about saving money so I can feel better about spending it. with 50 jumps in 3yrs. good going! let's hope you keep them gopro's rolling so the younglins have another lesson in the "this is how you could die"-video, or just the "bounce"-video. i like my cypres2, and when it's over and done with in 4yrs, most likely i'll get another one. and feel very confident it wont kill me, kill others or just take a plane down. and very confident it'll save my sorry ass when shit hits the fan.

dhis canpoaes r cald SAFIRE and SABRE. is it really that difficult? i'm on another forum where they'll fucking BAN you if you write like a nutsack. if we applied those rules here, nobody would be posting anymore, but PLEASE, for the love of god, get them fucking canopy-names straight, would you? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

and here i was thinking, nzaerosports made you any of their parachutes in any size.. so If i ever want to downsize from my crossfire 2 169. I can order a v x 168? i was under the impression you should be able to order a 305 petra if that was your thing. i'm quite sure you'd get a couple eyebrows lifted your way, but other than that, yes, that's how i understand their marketing. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

fair enough.. personally, i'm a cypres2 owner. and really, if you want to save a couple bucks, why not buy a BASErig? no AAD's, only one parachute.. much cheaper! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

that bothers me a lot too! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

well, you can set your cypres2 to activate at any height. havent done your homework well enough. as for metal-housing, that also adds additonal weight. nothing wrong with "plastics", as it can easily be more durable than "metal". “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

i'm always having a GREAT time in croatia! skydiving included. the gear they jump though.. i've had my micron with me, when i got back to the dz after getting food, everyone sat around it and praised it. kinda funny. them folks dont seem to have too much access to modern gear..

well, that escalated quickly! "WTF are you doing DAVID!" that was hilarious! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

and who are YOU!? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

I'm glad you're having a good evening. he couldnt ask for boobie-pics now, could he!? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

yea, we all know that by now, since sunday night actually.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

i like the controversy that seems to follow me! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

Did you post the dick pics of what it looked like after it got squished or did ya just send those to me? they were on here too! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

if you're unhappy, wait until you get an N3. more often than not, i keep finding myself jumping my first altimeter. the battery on the N3 is a total piece of shit. and if you want to use it for anything other than logging your jumps, you're not finished spending money, or you go throgh the trouble of navigating through the shitty menues. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

find one of the bigger boogies, jump your selection, decide. for what it's worth, i jump a safire2, VERY pleased with the customer service i've received (sent it in after 4yrs of ownership, got it fixed, new t-shirt, free of charge) and it's a nicely opening, fun canopy. very likely, i'll keep on jumping it until i give up the sport. at least until the crossfire3 comes out! nzaerosports is a great small company!

it always turns to sangi 2.0. sangi busted 360°'s with 150 jumps until he got busted. and posted EVERY (questionable!) video. no courses. no mentoring. just one bad decision after the other. at one point he's had a sub-100 katana, was it a 90? i dont remember. he smacked in with about 180 jumps, pretty much right after he went back to his 129 safire2, from hard pressing from side, public naming and shaming and even calling his dz about his katana. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

Can't be a step-through if the lines were assembled correctly and the lines on the rear riser are still correct. Mark mark, there's NO WORD for this, it's NOT assembled correctly, that's what's so funny about it! the riser is twisted and SOMEONE managed to even turn it through the lines, i dont know how to describe it. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

THAT^^ i think there's even something like a step-through as to describe best. you were so totally drunk dude, i'm PMSL here. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

What trouble can happen jumping a rig like that. Tension knot? i'm not a rigger, that's what most likely could happen. see twisted steering-lines in skydiving, or worse, BASEjumping, that resulted in bad things happening. friction is higher, so more chances of. i would fix that if i were you. i've hooked my first canopy up alone (skydiving) and had a line misplaced, i fixed that instantly before the next jump, it freaked me out. keep your gear in functioning order, treat it well, it may safe your life!

were you drunk when you hooked that up!? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

not sure if this counts as cult, J'Lo's butt sure is, and the movie is called "The Cell", pretty fucking weird. If you like japanese splatter-movie-cult-weirdness, "Audition" from Miike Takashi, i can not highly speak enough of this movie, try avoiding dinner, lunch, breakfast, dont watch your pets eat, best thing is you dont eat for a week before watching. it's AWESOME!!! classic cult movies, i like sci-fi, "2001 - a space odyssey" and "2010 - the year we make contact", semi-weird. and i love watching "Alien" over and over again. Everything by Ridley Scott is cult. not really weird, although the more movies to the franchise, the weirder but less cult they become. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

Help me out here!? And thanks! 😊 “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

yup, wasnt easy on me. and yup, glad there was no marriage and NO KIDS to argue about. we'll see what the future brings. for now, i try to take day for day. thanks for the WB for VB!
