I hate you only because your jumping at Gold Coast. They are the best.
Hows the new location? I jumped there went it was still at Trent Lott Int.

Soreness is normal after you do something physical that your body is not use to doing. Like playing football for the first time after a couple of years.

I have to ask, did you jump at Paradive or the newer DZ near Ber Sheva? I sure miss those Saturdays jumping over the Med up near Haifa

Living in Israel for a while I know how expensive the sport is your country. Wait till your done with the Army cuz I know your not going to make nearly enough money to support your very expensive habit in the IDF.

Sorry computers arnt my thing. Can someone help so you can just click the link and go to the video?

They use docile gear, GPS, night vision, and jump into a favorable landing zones and hump to their objective. I saw it once on JAG or was NCIS oohhhh I cant remember

I was told not to hang my rig(Mirage G3) because it could damage the cut away housing causing hard cut aways. I keep mine in a suit case with the rest of my gear.

The hot weather in Florida should be the least of your worries that time of year. I'm more concerned about those little storms that come off the Atlantic known as Hurricanes. This year is supposed to be just as active as last year. The Mid-West would be your best best.

We dont shake hands, we spit in each others mouth. Like in that one football movie the Program.

What about grounding you until you comply? Correct me if I'm wrong but I always thought that most safety rules pertaining to skydiving were writen in blood.

I bought some Tony Suit Cargo Pants. It was easy as Cake to order them custom on line and the price wasn't bad. Very comfortable and my shirts never come untucked from them. Also lots of pockets to hold whatever you want. I haven't lost anything(yet) in free fall.

I see the spammers have managed to infiltrate my DZ.com mail box. I dont need Viagra. Maybe in another 9 years but not now.

Take a vacation during the week when the weathers good and go down to Florida and jump at one of those 7 days a week places.

Well DZ.com is a great place to learn about the sport for starters. USPA.org is also a go place to go to download training aids.

The reverse "S" fold was a god send when I was first learning to put my brand new Sabre 2 into the bag.

When I was in Israel jump tickets were about 35 US dollars from a caravan to 12 grand. I feel your pain.

Can you at least show some concern for the ones who will be shoveling what's left of you into the body bag?

Im not really shocked with the website. There are people out there who have no clue on how they have the ability to go out and say anything they want without fear of torture or death.

Besides the founder of the site was probably was chucked from the military for being gay. That would explain why hes so sore at em.

Thanks to everyone for the advice. Needless to say the Diablo might not be the canopy for me. If I see a smaller canopy(nothing below a 150) and at a good price Id like to buy it so when I feel that Im ready for something smaller and with the advice of the freedom of flight crew when Im at Deland Ill give it a try only when the weather is perfect and in the middle of summer when there arent a thousand other parachutes in the air.

Anyway what is the logical choice to down size to after a Sabre 2 170?

Can anyone tell me how a Diablo 150 would pack in a Mirage M4 container? I see one in the classifieds and after looking on the Mirage web site they dont have it listed on the container sizing chart. Also how big of a jump would it be to go from a Sabre 2 170 to the 150. My exit weight would be about 190.

Cheers Y'all

>>To wherever the DZO feels comfortable with (even if he is wrong)<<

Are all DZO's men. Or are the only DZO's who would do something stupid be of the masculine gender.

How about only as high as the most inexperienced jumper on the plane is allowed to go.

I dont know if any of you listen to these two jerkoffs on the radio because I dont and I never will but some of my fellow co-workers told me they had a good laugh at the death of Gus down in Deland.

i tip anyone who packs for me. if i have a cut away i really wont mind because one could pack a perfect canopy and still have a mal.

I went to the Gold Coast web site and saw that they are taking donations via Paypal to help fight some legal battles. I made my first jump at that dropzone, I would hate to see anything happen to it.

If it wasn't so pathetic it might be funny.
