whats your beef there slick? the post before was talking about red bull haters. i was just kidding thus the "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

thats really cool! to bad this topic will be taken over by redbull haters congrates though! fuck redbull "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

it seems like a lot of the more popular bands have shitty openers. "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

icarus canopies could work. icarus built wings but flew to high and the sun melted the wax seal and he died. i think thats greek. "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

we have done 4 practice jumps and 2 of those were at least a ton-way. so far so good, everybody just has to do the right thing. there will be plenty of room when we actually do the ton o fun jumps during halloween (or so im told). "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

yeah thats the ticket! a ( ton of fun) load! all 200 lb guy 10 way. think there is that many big uns at the farm? there will be. its going to be a patch jump. edited to add: its going to be the TON-way. 2000 pound round. "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

i did my internship with this guy http://kengehle.com/ he does some amazing work tilt shit lenses. blue skies ken "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

put some eucalyptus oil into a pot with some water. heat the water until it is steaming, then breath deeply over it for a while. or if you have a humidifier you can put the oil into that and sit by it. it will clear you up really good for a while. "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

AWESOME! Great to have more young blood delving into the sport! look up JTVal he might know something of your surroundings. Congrats and Welcome! Skymama (the bestest Mod ever) wants you to post to the glory thread and we'll see you in Bonfire once you get a chance. Don't forget to pay your beer dues. Beer dues!!! When i went to the DZ yesterday, i went to get some water and noticed a LOT of beer... are beer dues common in all DZs??? That is awesome if it is! beer rules are pretty universal in skydiving. case of beer means one for you, and 1 for 23 friends your about to meet. "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

there is going to be some big boy jumps. 200 lbs minimum without gear. "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

+1. i really wish i had the two minutes of my life back that i wasted on that stupid ass video. "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

where are you going to do your jump? "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

1. i went a did a tandem for my buddies birthday. i saved everry penny i could get my hands on and two months later bought a 25 jump a license package for 1800 bucks and havent looked back. getting into skydiving was one of the most monumental moments of my life, LOVE IT!!! 2. you have steering lines on your parachute. at the appropriate height you pull down both and that applies the "brakes." it isn't so hard. 3. doing stuff jumps and other jumps when you involve variables gets risky, especially with low experience. it is best to take small steps when learning skydiving. you dont want to change/add more than a variable at a time, get it right consistently then you can add another one. and what skymamma said about helicopters, best jump so far. 4. when you start jumping just remember to breath, relax, and have a good fucking time. dont be so serious that you take the fun away. good luck and blue skies "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

you forgot to capitalize old! "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

i got in 2 jumps

more like this! and this is how we do it now. start at 2 minutes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7tI1E6kp0o "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

Remember that you can do everything right and still end up on the wrong side of a shit sammichQuote i think that deserves quotes. "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

learn to fly your body. then when you can utilize your full range, get the suit. you don't want to start out with a handicap, and then have to learn to fly without a suit. i weigh 230 but started at 250 when i was in aff. i didnt have any more problems than the average sized aff student. you canopy will fly a little faster than the average weight jumper, but that wont make a difference to you because its your first jump and you don't have a reference. i am new too so all this is bullshit blue skies "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

here is some good reading to hold you over until your aff ground school. http://www.uspa.org/SIM.aspx "Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."

Rebel XTi with the kit lens (!!) ISO 100 39mm f/5.6 13.0 sec tripod, hand released shutter Caught this with the 16th take. Got some others with single bolts and smaller activity.

easy fix. use the timer, like when you take a picture of the family but have to run to get into it. when the camera goes off you wont actually be touching it. So... are you going to tell us how you get the lightning to pose for that pic?
