  1. Twizzlers packaging and the act of trying to get one out from the end of the bag reminds me of a hardpull. More specifically Germain's video where the bridle is at the end of the pouch, pulled, bunching shit up.

    Hershey's, get your shit together!

  2. Not sure what AC you're jumping, but one of the best tips when I first started jumping and taking front float was (on an otter) to grab the small strut that comes down underneath the wing with my left arm. Right arm will be on the bar, and I'm usually looking underneath my right arm at the count with your head tilted down. This helps you avoid turning towards the tail to see the count up and over your arm.

  3. What happened to your friend? After you lost him I don't see him, nor you attempting to get back towards him? I just see you flailing like an AFF student. Do you have any idea where he was when you pulling (in place..)?

    From what I'm told by the packers, that was a D bag for a 260 made of F111.
    So it takes a bit of work. Though the packers and the rigger make it look easy.



    You'll be surprised with yourself if you keep at it. 60 more packjobs and you'll realize it isn't so bad B| You'll look back at this thread and just brush it off!

  5. Another thing to think about is being cooped up in the otter or whatnot, it's darker and your lenses will adjust for that. Then you get in the door and it's bright as shit and they take some time to darken up again.

  6. Yep, you just have to take everyones word here.

    I got a brand new canopy when I was at about I don't know, 70/80 jumps. Complete bitch the pack the first time I tried. People showed me a few tricks, but it really isn't that there's tricks out there that you haven't learned that are stopping you, but it's just repitition. I went to a few boogies with it and forced myself to pack it. Every walk in from the landing area sucked because in my mind I was dreading having to pack before getting on the next load, but it helped, and FAST.

    After the handful of boogies I went to and a little under a hundred jumps, I could absolutely tell how much easier it got and fast. (Not to mention the ZP had settled down by then..)

    TLDR; Force yourself to do it, you'll realize in 50 packjobs that that's all it took and it'll be easy as pie.

  7. Can anyone help me out?

    You can see in LinkList.java I need to build the insertAfter and insertBefore.

    What my mind see's, for insertAfter to begin with, is something like this..

    public void insertAfter(long dd)  {   
    
    long reference = current.dData;
    if (previous == null) {
    current = current.next; //Move current over one to make room for insert
    previous = reference; //Insert given number
    } else {
    previous = reference; //Insert given number
    }

    }
