  1. yeah, only took about 8 weeks. just in time for winter why would you choose microline over dacron?
  2. 1. how much does it cost to have a canopy re-lined? 2. what is the difference between Dacron and Microline? pros and cons? 3. how about the pros and cons of slinks vs. stainless vs. mini links?
  3. 1. is a reserve with 3 rides worth much less than a reserve with 1 ride? 2. at what point do you consider a reserve 'spent,' or 'used up?' (i.e. worth replacing)
  4. yeah, good to know... i was already thinking about favoring the good one. something to think about... thanks!
  5. ok, can you tell me how long your cast was on? and when they took it off did you get downgrade to a walking cast or were you able to move around normal?
  6. Has any doctor told you that you can jump again? yes, he said i'll be able to jump again. he just hasn't said when. the last time i saw the guy he said "i'll see you in a month." that was three looooooooooooooooooooong weeks ago.
  7. but he's not gonna tell me what I wanna hear!!! besides, I'm looking for the stories. I wanna know what other jumpers in my situation have done, how long they were out, etc...
  8. anyone out there had a similar break? doc's said i had a spiral fracture to the right fibula and they used a titanium plate and screws to put it back together... i went in a few weeks ago to get the staples out, they put a fresh cast on and said it should stay on four weeks. what's next? can i start walking on it after they take the cast off? and more important: how soon can I jump?
