  4.

  5. hey gary thanks for the reply. we haven't been in the sky together in a long time. not since archway at sparta. well i know that my brake lines have a slight bow in them at full flight. but i couldn't do any thing with them w/o replaceing them. when i went to a new riser and velcroless toggle system I had the brakelines replaced and they are a loop on the end that goes thru the grommet on the toggle and loops over it no extra to lengthen . the old school 190 and up have the dual steering line setup I would guess i must be pulling down the tail with the toggles in my hands and on the front risers at the same time. so do people let go of the toggles and do a front riser turn and then grab the rears or toggles to plane out? i have on occasion been accused of pulling low .

  7. I put up with this bitch's shit for 11 years. thought I needed her to afford skydiving. that was pretty stupid. turns out now that i have been single for 5 years I can afford to skydive more! but I did love the mean bitch. and being in my daughter's life played a big part in it to.. but now that i've got money to jump. I have to work every other weekend to pay for it. then weather knocks out a few weekends. we really need a 7 day a week d.z. in nashville. with a turbine would be nice. just a small one a caravan. I'd even put up with a small ass door on a pac 750 but a cessna would work. even thur fri sat sun would be great for me. I'd be there every thur fri that we had weather i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response. Naw I wasn't low I'm just such a big guy I look closer than I really am .

  9. so if I'm wanting the best openings and most bottom end flare power. without killing myself. do I want a sabre 2 safire2 firebolt sillouette stiletto spectre something else? back about 19 years and 40 lbs ago on my 1st zero P nine cell jump i went straight from a 288 manta to a 150 sabre 1 that was one of my more holy shit that was really stupid moves. scarred the shit out of myself but i survived loved it and repeated it like 5 more times that day. one of my more stupid moves i will admit on the 1st one the noise of the slider flapping was really a eye opener. but i knew the 143 reserve wasn't gonna help. so all i could do was land it. i have on occasion been accused of pulling low .

  10. anyone else remember the old school cg god frog shirt with him standing there geared up shrugging his shoulders with just.

  12. yeah highly modified program is right. I caught a show about the usaf program one night. i was like holy shit. thats one way to teach em hop out on the first one and save your own ass or wait on the main aad and deal with what ever came with it. wish i would have got that program on tape. i have on occasion been accused of pulling low .

  13. o.k. so first off. I'm not a swooper. don't call my landings swoops. but I'm a old fat bastard and jump a 190 loaded at about 1.5 or so I'm like 285 out the door. so i think thats about right. so i got a good little bit of speed on my landings. been playing with front risers turns and doublefronts till just before the flare. and I love my old reliable sabre 190 it flys plenty fast for me. but I don't like the occasional shall we say intresting opening. it's bumping me around in thermals. and the high front riser force and the way it bucks when I'm deep on both front risers. thinking about a new custom rig. if I wanted a new xbraced ellip canopy that opened sweet. didn't have a rep. for spinning up. which is one reason I love my old school sabre. I've kicked out of some shit on that old girl. but i digress. something with lighter front riser pressure. what could i get in a 190 size? I know i could get a crossfire 2 in 189. but most of the xbraced stuff I don't see avail in bigger sizes. any thoughts? I know the old girl is gonna wear out eventually. and I'll have to replace her in the next few years. so I'm just thinking out loud here. also while we are talking canopys what does anyone know about the new optimum reserve? does it live up to the hype?. is the packs 1 to 2 sizes smaller claim true? I wonder if pd will ever offer it in a 210 215 or 220 size? maybe in another 6 or 7 years bet it would be cost prohibitive to get them to custom make one huh? well a guy can dream. thanks for listening guys and any replys or pms are welcome i have on occasion been accused of pulling low .

  15. 23.5 from mullins k/a at mcminnville tn. me and some other guy pulled a 2 way off the plane. he had a fullface helmet and gloves. i had on gloves but I was bareheaded just goggles. I pulled him in tight while we were still subterm on the hill and yelled " it's fucking cold" he said afterwards that he heard that clearly. all that time and we never even built the 6 way i have on occasion been accused of pulling low .

  20. that just what i was thinking when I saw the one pouch. hummm. those things came in pairs with a shoulder holster like harness thing and you had one under each armpit. I have a few water jumps where I used them. when you popped them they were HUGE! you couldn't see anything unless you spread them apartt to look between them like the tits on a fat chick. I was allways worried one would fire in freefall and send me into some wild spin. i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response.

  21. I have only had 2 reserve rides. they were about 3 or 4 months apart back in the 80's the 1st on a 26 ft. navy conical. that was a whomp into the earth. but I stood up the 26 ft. strong lopo with ease. of course that was a few pounds ago. but even back then i was like 225. and young and strong. made of steel and bullet proof all that shit. i have on occasion been accused of pulling low .

  22. with your jump numbers. and your currency issues. anyone who would laugh at you for wanting to be safe and go back on a radio for a few jumps. is an asshole and should be bitch slapped and then ignored. seriously do a day of hop and pops on the radio it will come. i have on occasion been accused of pulling low .

  23. hey birds haven't posted to this forum b4. yeah I know beer. I did a couple of demo jumps on a birdman classic years ago. at richmond with chris martin i miss you bro. I was able to shoehorn myself into that suit. by sucking in my gut. but I was really worried about the zippers exploding. loved the flight time. my question is know anyone who is a big guy. and might have a birdman classic or simular intro suit around? and I mean a BIG guy. I'm like 6'4"ish and I bounce up and down between 245 and 260. I talked to tony about the intro and was really impressed with his straitforwardness he said prob would not be able to stay up with anyone with an into at my size. if anyone knows a tall birdman with a beer belly who might have an entry suit. let me know. i have on occasion been accused of pulling low .
