Get your G&H coach jumps done and card signed off on first. I made the mistake of doing a bunch of solo jumps after my F's and it ended up costing me more and I almost missed a boogie.

The kid would be at greater risk if he at a cigarette. I've seen that happen before. You don't ever hear it making news.

I don't know which side she's on...I would like to call them all morons, but I'm sure they are all quite intelligent and it's all for ratings. What's truely sad is what goes for "news" in this country.

Nancy Grace can blow me...along with anyone who takes her dribble seriously.

In this instance another 5 seconds and we would not be having this particular discussion. From what I read she was able to work the snag out, but the canopy did not fully inflate before impact. This thread had started to reinforce the idea that snag was not the primary concern with low jump numbers and a go pro (distraction being the primary concern)....has that changed? Any other known snag incidents with a go pro?

I'm new (and arguably dumb) so don't flame me over this question...... Go Pro is a cheap HD camera that performs well for the price. Reason for popularity, yes? If someone opts for the go pro due to price point it's unlikely that they will invest in a more "snag free" housing for the go pro because it cost more, yes? Does this make the arguments surrounding how to make the go pro more snag free more or less academic?

I've given more thought to cameras after reading the incident thread on the other board. From all accounts (that I've read) the jumper in question was very experienced (fairly new to base?) and I doubt more skydiving experience would have helped...it this case she just needed more time and did not have it.

I could have sworn you were in the name that rack thread.

Not as hot as these american boobies.

Hummmmm.....FAIL!

Really? Well if the girl I "dated" from Riyadh comes from a conservative country and Lebanon is one big party, sans short wars with Israel, then I'm buying a ticket now. Any DZ's?

WIN!

69 tandems? Could you blame them for not going out on their own?

They don't frown on that at your DZ?

Look you don't get it do you? It's a Persian thing! It's not about go it's all about show! I mean really! Come on! I'm willing to bet good money that these things have designer props and leather seats! Sure they may not be fast but it's noy about being fast brother it's all about show off how sexy you look! "Ladies, like my flying boat! Oh yes you know you do! It's like my carpet but this one has a DVD player and if this boat is a rocking don't come a knocking!" It would be cheaper to just by a Ferrari. Persians can afford to be cheap.

Question is....what good would it do them against any of the number of armies waiting around to kick their ass?

I doubt any of them would be caught dead (no pun intended) in Iran....You did say "out of iran". Most women in Iran wear head scarfs not burkas.....and yes. I would notice them. I've got an eye for these things. Once noticed I would secret them out of the country on one of those flying boats.

hardly. http://libertypundits.net/article/top-5-iranian-beauties/

I like Shah's posts, particuarly when he says what others are thinking but afraid to state out of fear for the flame. +1 for him not getting nasty after some of the insults that are thrown his way. Ohhh...and a major congrats on the A!

Get over yourself. You take a comment too seriously/personal. Aren't you a sweetie

Castillo De San Marcos is pretty cool and the whole area around it. Find a place to park and just start walking. St. Augustine is very cool.

I continue to learn a lot by readying dz.com, but this posting stuff is just not working out...I've got to step away from the keyboard. To everyone who offered advice and constructive critisizm to this noob I appreciate it. I'm a bit dense at times so I appreciate your efforts to reinforce conventional wisdom. I'm going to step out of my comfort zone and start actively trying to get on RW jumps. To those of you that are less than constructive in your comments. Perhaps you too should step away from the keyboard. What are you accomplishing with your comments? Again, thanks for all the advice. I've heard you. I'm going to get with some organizers and coaches....maybe I'll even get with the toastmasters. lol

lol....wise words.

why do people have problems tracking to the right?
