Otherwise I lose about 20 lbs. in waterweight from bein' out in 120 degree weather all day.Some people refrain from beating a dead horse. Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DrewEckhardt 0 #9 May 22, 2007 QuoteWhy the hell would you want to decrease your wingloading? 7000-8000 feet of density altitude, (like a 30% size decrease), a 5 MPH tail wind, 200 pounds of skydiver+beer gut (25-30 pounds)+rig, and 105 square feet of parachute which is not cross-braced.

ntrprnr 0 #16 May 22, 2007 When I jumped in the spring of 06 for the first time since losing 30 pounds, my "normal" flare that slowed me down in the past offered me, this time, 20 extra feet of lift.

riddler 0 #18 June 2, 2007 Wait - are we increasing our wingloading, or decreasing it?? I think if we call it a wingloading diet, it should be something to increase wingloading. Sometimes when I spend all day climbing a 14er, I really want a bunch of calories by the time I'm done. I keep a bottle of beer right next to a pint of Ben and Jerry's in a cooler. The ice cream keeps the beer cold, and the beer warms the ice cream into liquid. By the time I get back, I pop both open, and take turns swigging - beer in one hand, liquid ice cream in another. That'll increase your wingloading for sure. Today I tried to get into my RW suit after packing on about 20 pounds of winter fat. Didn't work If we're trying to get into our jumpsuit, we should call it the "trying to get our fat asses back into last summer's jumpsuit diet". Trapped on the surface of a sphere.
