flummi 0 #1 January 2, 2006 Got mine today (but hey, for being in italy and thus having the italian post involved, that is still quite fast even considering it was mailed on dec. 17) Now when I look at the cover I remember the LZ being on the RIGHT (not on the LEFT, as on the cover). I was wondering if it had to do with being shot from the crane, boom, whatever, but that did not explain it. I tried to figure out if the jumper on the cover had probably done a full floater (ok highly unlikely with a PC-in-hand), but the relative position of head and feet and the positions of LZ and boat ramp tell me that's not it. Is this one of these cases of flipping the negative?flummi * Respekt - ist uns're Aufgabe (fanta4) * Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thijs 0 #2 January 2, 2006 QuoteIs this one of these cases of flipping the negative? Think so, looking at the landing zone and that the jumper holds the PC in her left hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flummi 0 #3 January 2, 2006 You're right! I saw she had the PC in hand, but I did not see it was the "LEFT" hand... Hey Triax, could you - just for fun - post the picture the "RIGHT" way? Just started watching the DVD, "the cover girl" makes the first jump - "flipped" the right way, with the PC in the right hand... and the LZ also on the rightflummi * Respekt - ist uns're Aufgabe (fanta4) * Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vid666 0 #4 January 2, 2006 I thought about that long and hard - and I am guessing that the whole reasoning behind that was so they can put "the year of the trains" on the railroad tracks in the UPPER LEFT. also the back cover, bottom paragraph references a "BriSge Day" ( S instead of a D) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I enjoyed the dvd. thanks for the fast production!

flummi 0 #8 January 3, 2006 you missed it BIG TIME... she's the first one in the whole DVD, and she reappears in the first timer section for quite a while, hesitating a little bit at the exit.flummi * Respekt - ist uns're Aufgabe (fanta4) * Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe he's talking about the jumper who's picture is actually printed on the disk itself--not the cover jacket. He's posted in this thread, so I imagine he can let us know if he made the video.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flummi 0 #11 January 4, 2006 oops... so i guess it was me who had it wrong BIG TIME i am glad i did not write something nastier, it would be even more embarassing now actually, i have to admit that the DVD went from the sleeve to my drive so fast that i do not even remember there was a picture of a jumper on the DVD itself... will look it up tonight at home. sorry wwarped!flummi * Respekt - ist uns're Aufgabe (fanta4) * Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
