No problem. I just thought you might have some very short time schedule that you wanted to do this in and then head back to PR. If your intent is to stay in LA as long as it takes, then just be aware it can take a lifetime just to go nowhere. I know, Trust me, I know, and yes, I know that its a long shot, odds are against me, I probably wont make it... but I'll be happier going over there and failing and knowing that I at least tried, than staying here in Puerto Rico for the rest of my life and getting a normal job while I watch the years of my life pass me by as I keep wondering "What if?". Like I said, I started this post just to get as much help as I can, even if its bad news or reality checks. And I'm willing to stay over there as long as it takes "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

Neither am I. It's a territory, but I'm not sure what the deal is if you want to work. I know that pretty much nobody but the porn industry would probably even consider him unless he had all his work ducks in a row. You can't even register with Central Casting without proving you're legal to work. Now, if all he wants to do is sign up for an improv class, get on stage and say he's done improv in LA . . . that's a whole other matter. One of the things that does bother me though is he said "months." Normally people should give themselves "years" just to break into extra work. That's not to say that miracles don't happen, but months seems a bit short. ok, I'm sorry that it bothers you that I said months, but I've been planning this for a while, I've already done extra work in films that they've filmed here in Puerto Rico( including Rum Diaries with Johnny Depp). Obviously if I cant get there in months I'll get there in years, but my goal is to get there asap. Like I said, I'll need all the help I can get since I don't know anyone over in LA, and I do appreciate all the advice that you might have for me... good or bad "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

I'm from PR, so I don't need a work visa "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

I've done it with my past 2 ex's and everything has turned out ok "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

Ok, my guess is you're not currently in any of the unions and have little professional experience. Am I right? Any suggestions? "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

Cool, did you come to this years boogie? "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

True, I'm not in any unions, but I do have experience, but it's only here in Puerto Rico and honestly it's not at all what I'm looking for "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

Yeah, Acting "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

oh... Sorry about that Let me give it a try hahahaha Better? "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

jajaj, it's own porn producer huh? jajaj Hey like I said, I'll need all the help I can get "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

Yeah, as long as I can get a couple of skydives in and meet some people that might help me get to know L.A. a little better I'll be good "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

ok, I guess elsinore is my first choice "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

jajaj, Yeah, I kinda figured out that the question might be a little wrongly constructed. The real question would be if there are any L.A. skydivers willing to give a helping hand "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

Hey I'll probably be moving to L.A. for a couple of months to take a shot at personal dream that I've always had and I wanted to know if there's any skydivers that live in L.A. or at least let me know of the nearest dz because I literally know nobody over there. So yeah... Any help or response will be appreciated. thanks "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

I've had it all my life :( "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

I was thinking on getting that multispeed suit. I don't really remember the maker but I saw it in the USPA magazine. Supposedly you change the speed with zippers. But that was just a thought. Like I said before, I would like a suit that does belly and freefly well enough for me to learn and get better. But belly fly right now is my main concern. "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

um... I'm guessing something that works for both. If it's not possible consider belly a priority "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

Hey guys I'm relatively new to the sport. I only have 22 jumps under my belt and I'm looking to buy myself a new jumpsuit. Just wanted to know if there are any recommendations on what I should get. Which are the better makers and models. Thanks "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

I'm still relatively new to the sport, but I can honestly say that I made a mistake once that was really stupid. I know it wasn't on my last jump, I think it was the one before that. The thing is, it was a great day a the DZ and everything is ok, I even do my gear check. Get on the plane, climb to 10,000 ft, diving exit, cool all around jump. Opened my canopy at around 4,000 ft and everything was perfect. I remember overshooting a little bit where I wanted to land. I pick up my canopy to head to the packing area, give my rig to one of the packers and wait for him to pack. When I get my rig back I noticed that my Cypress was off. Yeah, I forgot to turn on my cypress :S. That has to be one of the weirdest feelings that I've ever had because I felt a little fear, but like I knew that nothing had happened to me. The thing is that I never told anyone about it cause I can honestly say that I felt kind of embarrassed of making such a stupid mistake. But that's not the end of it. On my last jump, I went with a friend of mine that was going to tandem. Like before, everything was great, I do my gear check, get ready to jump, get on the plane, and as we're on the runway getting ready to take off, I remember that I forgot to turn it on again :S. Incredibly enough as soon as the plane started to take off it stopped due to a weather hold. Got off the plane, took my rig off and turned on the cypress. Second time it happens to me, only I think that the second was worse because I knew that it was off yet I stayed quiet due to the embarrassment of the stupid mistake. To sum things up, I felt really stupid. "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

Xtremedivers is the Puerto Rico DZ. You can go to their website. www.xtremedivers.com I jump with them regularly "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

I think it's XL as well. "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

I'm being offered a used Rathat from Bonehead for $150. Is it a good deal? "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

Hey guys I just bought my first rig and everything is perfect with it. Except that it's a used rig and the container is kinda old looking. Just wanted to know any suggestions on how to clean my container. It's a Javelin. "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

It's black blue and yellow "Fast is slow, slow is fast"

thanks. And yeah I've had end cell closure in both my jumps with this new rig. But it's ok. Like you said. Just pump those rear risers. "Fast is slow, slow is fast"
