  1. Heya jumping buddies, Are you Aussie or part Aussie? Do you live in Aus or abroad? We need your help. We wish to crack an Aussie FS record in Perris California USA. May 30 - June 10 this year. We need more Aussies to register and make up the numbers. If you are APF member you have 5 days to register to receive money from the national counsel to help get you there. On a personal note this record in very important to me. I've had a rather tough time in the last few years and some health problems. This will probably the first and last big way opportunity for me to be involved in for a long time. 2012 is a big year, lets make it the best for Aussie Skydiving!! Remember the world is going to end soon ay?! ;) Head to the P3 site www.p3skydiving.com for more info or email Grey Jack on [email protected] I'll give you hugs, a ham sandwich and a picture of my cat if you come. Love Netty! www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  2. That's excellent news highjb, I will investigate my liner options on my z1. But I will also follow up on davevans bonehead suggestion to. Thanks guys. www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  3. I'd love a G3, Aussie owned, good looking. Squeak you could always buy me one ;P www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  4. Cookie is out of my price range new and there aren't really any secondhand G2 or G3 floating around. I like full face for FS. www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  5. Get the pilot in zpx and don't look back. With any canopy fabrics lighter colours can fade, that's the only thing I know to worry about.. and I still bought light green. www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  6. 188 I've jumped both. Now own 168 zpx pilot. Love love love. www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  7. Yes I guess. They are felted wool braided into my hair. Blue, says and fuchsia. I love em. www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  8. So, I've been jumping a Z1 med I think.. I have a 22 inch head. Got me some dreadlock extensions, now my head is 24inchs. You can imagine my helmet is painfully snug. So question is. What brands of full face have liner options that I can accommodate my new big head (lol) but could be downsized if I ever decide to remove the locks. Cheers. www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  9. I'm sure his is fluoro green and not a tony. I was heading to Busso, but I've been asked to skate a bout this weekend.. so I'm a bit bummed, cause I was looking forward to jumping in a beetlejuice costume. :( I guess it saves me money to spend on Melbourne Cup bouts. Might jump Sun? www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  10. So my Tonysuit Wingsuit R-bird is ordered. Happy! But Tonysuits have informed me that neon green in my colour scheme is not available and that they were going to use standard green. They have told me they don't have a picture of the green. I'm quite disappointed since a toxic green is on my Vector. So does anyone out there have a tony wingsuit with standard green in it, take a pic and post to me. If I think the green is poo with my suit, I'm thinking Turquoise instead. Please help. www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  11. I love my pilot zpx.. great to pack too, even when new!! www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  12. I totally love it!! I've had a new Sabre 2 give me grief all the way into the bag, even packers wrestled with it. Then used a newish Pilot 188 then 168 zp. Since packing was always my weak point I went with the extra cost and bought my Pilot 168 zpx. Got it in the bag first go!! It has a texture that I feel helps. I really, truly love the zpx and I love the pilot.. it has the handling and performance I was looking for, responsive yet forgiving. The colours kinda suck, but I ain't complaining. LOVE LOVE LOVE!! www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  13. I see where you're coming from. But, He took large professional ads out in ASM.. I live in WA and he called me immediately after my inquiry and sent me letters of recommendation from manufacturers. He came across as sincere and legit. With badgering I received a demo rig and cared for it. I was very very careful not to get left without a rig. Alot of people say if the the deal is to good it's probably dodge. He sold the deal professioanlly, not a under the table. How the fuck were some of us to know?? People on this forum plaised him and shot down complaints from burnt customers. I'm very very thankful I have my gear. I know where all your money has gone, but it would be improper for me to post someones problematic lifestyle choices. Yes yes yes!! I'm sticking with local more expensive options in future :) www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  14. I'm confused myself..anyways. I wear glasses when I jump. My glasses have transitions lenses so I wear clear ones. I guess mirrored would block the view of your glasses, but eye contact between jumpers in freefall I believe is important. I don't live OVA style goggles, there too bulky. I love Way Cool homebrand normal fitting goggles, they allow we to wear my specs without looking like a moon unit. http://www.waycool.com.au/duraflex-p-130.html www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  15. I really don't get this forum. A jumper on these forums months ago warned you all about his KK experience and I wanted to do the same.. But you all shot him down in flames and gave him no support tell the world Gary is a good guy and a good dealer. This scared me off from backing him up via my experiences. Mr. Lucas is a nice person, I believed he had good intentions, but certain lifestyle choices I believe clouds his judgment and some very very bad mishandling of money. His heart is in the jumping and the sport, but without business skills you can soon wind up looking like a con man. Even though my custom rig that I bought that doesn't fit properly took 8 months to arrive and in January this year I had to get on a plane for 5hrs to ambush him for my main.. At least I got my goods (though no receipts, so my insurance is screwed) I think people on these forums should wait before hacking someone to bits that had the good gusto of warning people of dodge dealers, no matter how much of a buddy they are to you. www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  16. Ok.. I've made a decision After reviews and opinions. Though I would really love to go with Aussie made. The 30% off trade in sale with BH, the price and the risk free purchase (though I'm usually the type of person to buy wisely in the first place). Bone head is going to get my business. I do think the Revolve looks a little like a space man helmet... But with the right paint job, that could be cool. Though I very tight in budget from saving for Skysisters, The deal finishes at the end of the month, so I need to get cracking. I hope to try the G2 in the future. Thanks friends. www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  17. As a motorcycle helmet wearer, I'm use to the I guess narrow filed of vision, so a good bike rider is aware of this and compensates for it. In free fall I'd love to have my mouth clear to see. This has been a great topic. I'd love to see picks of peeps wearing this two brands.. and Phantom in use and on the ground. I wish these wear You tube reviews :) www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  18. Well my question is about these two products and I'm happy for people to through in there two cents on other helmets. Please, there are no demos to try out here and no one has these helmets to borrow. I here you on the motorcycle helmet issue, I wear a Shark comfortably but a Shoei isn't right. This was a feedback mission to get opinions of people wearing these lids to help my decision. And it's pretty mixed, though G2 I think is ahead in comments. I am looking at the Phantom x too. Bonehead have a deal of trading in your old for a discount, this is a good deal too. www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  19. You'll love this.. It cost more to buy a Cookie in Aus than in the States when Cookies are made here!!! Figure that one out. www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  20. Wow, it really is a mix field. I appreciate the comments and am very happy we've all being very behaved But I'm still very undecided. I love my gath, but it's not exactly going to save my noggin'. The two helmets in one of the revolve is very attractive, plus the side contour camera mount is a plus. But i'd love to know if it's got the ventilation to not cook in it. I believe the g2 has great ventilation. It's such a hard choice, since nothing in our sport is cheap except for stows and free beers from passing students. And it is hard to know if a sponsored jumper is being sincere or just selling. Plus the standard show pony peer pressure you get from peeps at your home dz. That lead to having a vector on my back, when I was looking at icon and jav's. It would be so awesome if company's that make the toys we love could send demos to try when there ain't dealers that carry everything you want. But that would be very expensive. *sigh* to co[/url]okie or not to cookie? That is the question? Wheth[/email]er it is nobler is mind to bone head thy noggin' Quote www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  21. So, it's full face helmet time, I wanna move away from my Gath since I do RW stuffs. I wear a Motorcycle helmet while riding, so I don't think a full face will bother me in freefall. I thought I was decided on a Cookie G2. I jump in a hot place that in winter never drops below 39.5F (4C) and 5F at height. Summer average 86F to 95F. So temp is an important factor. I hear G2 has great ventilation and REvovle not so much. But important is vision, comfort and safety. Just seen all the awesome reviews for the REvovle and it looks bloody fantastic. I live in the most isolated city in the world and trying these 2 helmets isn't possible.. So has anyone tried both and can give me they opinion on which they liked. Taking into account what I mentioned previously. Thanks for your help guys!! Nettybee www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
  22. I wore normal sneakers for my earlier jumps, but even with soft landings, my feet and ankles still got shocked. I only wear Nike Air high tops now, this solved the shock problem and if I find a squishier shoe I will use that. I think cushioning is a great thing, I don't think I will end up ever jumping bare foot, if I had to I'd probably wear something like VFF.. But I think I'd still stick to squishy shoes :) www.exoticbodypiercing.com.au
