    Skydive Space Center

    Skydive Space Center is by far one of the best DZs in Florida. I have been jumping on and off for about 6 years now,a nd I always end up back at Space Center. The location is great, the view is amazing, and you can't beat the altitude you can get there! The whole staff is very friendly, and the local jumpers are willing to help out anyone that asks. As for what some others are posting here. I'm just perplexed. I don't see the staff and locals as clicky. Yes, a few might be, but you will get that everywhere you go. My second day jumping there, I went out with a group of the locals for dinner, and the next week, I was invited to a party. Here I am, brand new, and not knowing anyone there, and I'm not being pushed away, but invited to join in with them. There's also been comments about "offensive suggestions geared mostly towards women to skydive naked" on this site. We all know that every DZ jokes around about naked jumps. Within the past 2 years or me jumping at SSC, I have only seen 1 naked jump, and that was do to a video crew shooting a DVD there. Truthfully, I recommend this DZ highly. I consider it my second home, and family. I have learned so much about skydiving because of the people at SSC. Everyone is there to help each other out, even Greg. I think that we should appreciate a place where people want to talk to you about mistakes or mishaps that happened, so that they can be corrected, and you don't get hurt. I recommend that you come and check out skydive space center for yourself, and see what everyone is talking about. It is one of the best DZs in Florida, if not in the US.
  20. I was on the balloon jump at Lake Wales. It was amazing! I highly recommend it if you can find one. $80 was a little much for it, but it's an experience I won't forget. There will be helicopter jumps at Skydive Space Center in Titusville on February 27-29 for their boogie though. -- Andy Ussach Team Dirty Sanchez Ex-Vice President #38 Explosivo Rodriguez #1385, Muff Brother #3503, "Woody" Hellfish #646
  21. Thanks Derek, I'm not even going to reply to anyone anymore. If people can only be closed mind, and read what they want to read, and not take the information I was posting as a here, this is what happened, oh well. -- Andy Ussach Team Dirty Sanchez Ex-Vice President #38 Explosivo Rodriguez #1385, Muff Brother #3503, "Woody" Hellfish #646
  22. If I'm telling you that I'm not blaming them, then I'm not blaming them. As a matter of fact, I even talked with a person from Bonehead on the phone while I was sending the email,a nd read it to her before it was sent. Maybe if you read the very next sentence on that post... Let me just state from the beginning, before this gets out of hand. I am not blaming Bonehead for anything that happened to me. I'm sorry if it reads that way There is no lawsuit, nor any mention of any thought of one. If you still read on, I even said that I took full responsibility. As a matter for fact, I will probably continue to use Bonehead helmets, just with a different style of neck strap. Also, I DID NOT LAND ON MY HEAD! If I landed on my head, a helmet that is not meant to be protective, like most skydiving helmets are, I most likely would of been dead. As a matter of fact, my head was the very last thing to hit the ground. It was more of a hit the ground un a PLF style working my way up to my head while dragging across the ground. Once again people.... Let me just state from the beginning, before this gets out of hand. I am not blaming Bonehead for anything that happened to me. I'm sorry if it reads that way. I'm posting this to let everyone know of a failure that I had with the helmet strap design. I enclosed all communication with Bonehead to try to show that I was being fare to everyone. I'm completely aware that what happened is not to be blamed on anyone but me. I just want to warn people that may be jumping with the older style Bonehead, before they added the Velcro wraparound to it. -- Andy Ussach Team Dirty Sanchez Ex-Vice President #38 Explosivo Rodriguez #1385, Muff Brother #3503, "Woody" Hellfish #646

  24. I recently had an accident while wearing a Bonehead Mindwarp. The chin strap choked me, and then loosened, while then slicing my chin open causing the need for 18 stitches. Below is my email to Bonehead with their reply. ------------------------------------------------------------ Dear Bone Head Composites, On Saturday, September the 13th, I had a skydiving accident that's landing sent me to the hospital. Luckily, I didn't break anything, but I did sprain and stretch a few areas. The reason that I am writing you is because I had a malfunction that put 18 stitched into my chin. I have an old style Bone Head Mindwarp. It seems that when I hit the ground, I landed on the right side of my body and head. This pushed up onto the helmet, which caused the neck strap to loose, and then make its way up to my chin where it cut through to show my muscle. The doctor is positive that it was from the helmet because of the clean and straight cut it created, and by it's location. I can also see blood on the cloth that covers the canvas strap. I am very upset, and disappointed with your product. I figured that I should let you know about this before I post my event on dropzone.com and a few other locations. I will give you a few days to reply to me with any soft of reply or comment that you may have. I would be more than happy to attach your reply to my email to show both sides. I just hope that this accident doesn't cause me any permanent disfigurement because I was wearing one of your products. I have enclosed a picture of my chin, and the helmet I was wearing. Thank you for your time, Andy Ussach ------------------------------------------------------------ Thank you Andy for letting us know about your accident and your concern about the chin strap. Bonehead Composites does everything possible to make our products safe. However, we are unable to control the many scenarios that happen while wearing our products in freefall, like landing and/or exiting the plane. This is why we place a warning label on all of our products. Not to make light of your accident, but it seems that many factors came into play...malfunction, bad spot, bad landing area and hitting your head very hard on the ground. I would hate to think of what might have happened to your head if you where not wearing a helmet at all. In the future, with any helmet you might jump with, it's always a good idea to tack down the chin strap (once it's adjusted correctly) with some E-thread so it won't loosen. Sincerely, Bonehead Composites ------------------------------------------------------------ No reply after the first email from Bonehead -- Andy Ussach Team Dirty Sanchez Ex-Vice President #38 Explosivo Rodriguez #1385, Muff Brother #3503, "Woody" Hellfish #646
  25. Sunpath said that they don't recommend it do to it will be a tight fit. But it should work. They even told me that they don't want to take the responsibility for if I buy it, and it doesn't fit correctly. That's why I was checking with iothers to see if they had problems with it fitting. -- Andy Ussach Team Dirty Sanchez Ex-Vice President #38 Explosivo Rodriguez #1385, Muff Brother #3503, "Woody" Hellfish #646
