Thank you everone, i greatly appreciate the info! Though it was safe and I was far enough away it was still too close for me.

So you tracked up jump run. What did you need our help figuring out, again? Well not tracked...flipped and back slid I guess. Just want to make sure I did the right thing? should I have pulled as soon as i saw them under me? Should I have tracked forward? Should I have tried to get behind them? I went right? Was that right? I don't know...I only have 85 jumps and I'm asking how i could have done a better job or if what i did was the right thing?

So spot them till they deploy? Or spot them as to see where they are going and go the other direction? Oh sorry I forgot to state that I started tracking perpendicular to the jump run but my flipping and attempted sit flying was so bad i ended up moving back on to jump run. Or I can just stop being silly and not try sitting or getting too unstable. Just to be on the safe side?

A few weeks back I was jumping at a new drop zone and it was the last jump of the day so it was just me and a tandem so the DZ utilized their Cessna. We flew up to 10k and due to the tandem being really really tall the tandem went out first. I was told to give a 10 second count. I was wearing just basic ballistic motorcycle pants and a t shirt and wanted to work on doing some back flips front flips and seeing if I could even start a sit fly. I knew I was going to be very squirrelly in the air. I clearly indicated this to the tandem master and he asked me to give him a count of 10. The tandem went out, I slowly counted to 10 looked at the pilot to make sure everything was ok and went out. I did a few flips and tried to sit and ended up on my head...ok then pulled up to a belly track at a little north of 7k ft. I saw the canopy of the tandem deploy. Assuming he was at 5k ft I had a 2k ft separation vertically and they were behind me by say 400ft. I was in a track so I could see them behind me. I tightened up my track and pushed my right shoulder down so as to angle my track away from their perceived direction of movement. Every now and then I would glance over my shoulder to make sure I was in the clear. When I was below at about 4k ft I got stable waved off big and deployed. We both landed just fine and after I profusely apologized to the tandem master. We spoke about it and knew I was above him and was looking out for me. He commended me on tracking away and we spoke more about the situation. In case an odd situation where a tandem goes out first before a belly flopper like me. Should I just give them 20 seconds? And work my way back for a long spot? Or should I forgo the acrobatic training and track perpendicular to the jump run so as to ensure I have the greatest separation from the tandem. However I understand now more than ever why tandems go last. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

http://money.cnn.com/2012/09/11/news/economy/wealth-net-worth/index.html?hpt=hp_t3 NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- The wealth gap between the richest Americans and the typical family more than doubled over the past 50 years. In 1962, the top 1% had 125 times the net worth of the median household. That shot up to 288 times by 2010, according to a new report by the left-leaning Economic Policy Institute.

Well there is nothing in the bylaws of the KKK that says people of color can't come to their meetings but you don't see any of my Latino friends showing up. Maybe just maybe this should be a hint to the GOP that they need to diversify their approach to governance which was more embracing of other cultures other than WASPs and Tea Baggers. If you ask me the gop is cutting off it's nose to spite it's face. The Latino vote should be their vote but they seem to fuck it up over and over and over again! Which I have to admit is slightly more funny than jellocrats not being able to do shit!

Yeah you found some "tokens" and a few performers. that' hardly qualifies. but really the gop needs to work on being more inclusive than exclusive. it's just a better place to be!

I don't know a few of those looked photo shopped to me and one of them looked as if the lady just cam in to use the bathroom? You sure they are republicans? I mean like 100% sure?

Eastwood? Ah I hear he is doing a new movie. Old Man and The Seat But really the gop needs to darken up a little! I mean I have yet to see any one post a photo of any people of color who were not working the convention at the convention. And i'm sorry the "condy" line is a crock of shit. Come on gopes...prove the Shah wrong! Post a photo of 3 or more pople of color at the covention.

You mean the total lack of color in his party! The last time you had so many self righteous people lacking a tan getting together and wanting to resemble a time and a place that never existed......I hear Poland had a bad day!

Lazarus, I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination. But please please be careful. I was jumping a 260 Navigator that was "ragged out" and all of my landings were HARD PLF's until one day it bit my sorry ass and I ended up with a nice titanium rod in my right shinbone. Now can I prove that the chute was ragged out? NOPE! I don't have enough experience then nor do i have enough now. But I do know that right after my accident two people with thousands of jumps, jumped it and both agreed it was ragged out and cut the lines and the parachute has gone missing....... But such is life and no hard feeling on my part...no one knew and i was not smart enough to ask. So that said, I would suggest you get on another parachute ASAP! A parachute with no flare is like a car with no breaks. It's just not safe. Now it could just be lines or it could just be you but.....talk to your instructor ASAP get some videos of your landings, have a rigger check out the lines and have someone else jump it. Please cover your ass. Getting hurt sucks, getting things checked out only costs you time.

OMFG that was gooood! But yeah that's what i'm going to call it an all white all may all fluff and no substance sandwich! Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay. The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools!

A Romney sandwich start off with white bread....what was there ever a question. Remove crust.....don't want any of that brown on there. Slather both slices in mayo. Slap on a good amount of turkey and chicken breast top it off with some white American cheese and enjoy with a glass of milk with a side of coleslaw.

I don't see any and i am looking...why don't you post a photo. And i love the rnc and their love of condi...her nick name should be Token. Why? Because every time you question a republican about why there are no people of color they say "But what about condi!" http://img3.wpdigital.net/rf/image_606w/2010-2019/WashingtonPost/2012/08/30/National-Politics/Images/2012-08-30T022305Z_01_RNC339_RTRIDSP_3_USA-CAMPAIGN.jpg "Bitch I am Token!" http://msnbcmedia.msn.com/j/MSNBC/Components/Photo/_new/120830-Romney-celebrates-RNC-9p.photoblog600.jpg Waspy waspy waspy wassspy!

Where? I don't see any photos of people of color at the rnc. It was WASPy WAPY and yes more albino prunes. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay. The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools!

Look it took me years to get my shtick down such that my criticality of odd WASPY folks was just that PC racism! Now come on prove me wrong! Find me a photo of 4 or more ethnic folks at the gnc convention? I was watching the dnc and man it was like a sea of colors! If anything the dnc has jungle fever! And as a lover of all the ladies of the world regardless of their race or creed (as long as they are long legged, flat bellied, perky boobied amazing assed hotties) I have to say I think the dnc convention just looked younger more alive and much much more diverse!

Sorry right now as it stands it is. Why? Well let's face it the WASPY bible thumpers have been in power for a long time. And it's always ok to make fun of those in power. Maybe in a few years when the WASPY bible thumpers are out of power we wont' be able to make fun of them anymore!

I'm not going to read 6 pages. But has any one thought that this was simply a technology demonstrator? Remember that Toyota lost money for 3 straight years when it was producing the prious.

I know enough to get them all pissy hissy and that's a good 90% of the fun! Case in point want to make fun of the gop? Call them old white people who once owned slaves. They go freaking nuts! But the sad part is that it was very true! I mean how many people of color did you see in the audiance of the gop convention? And of the people here how many were under the age of 7,000! The gop has a very serious issue. they need to move their ass and get with the rest of the country or fade away!
