askir 0 #5 January 17, 2007 AS one of the BEST Master Riggers I have ever met said...just don't get more than 2000 jumps...it will make your riggers license obsolete..... Cause every MOFO out there with mopre than 2000 jumps thinks he knows more than him (a MR with 30 years in the field and working for NASA as well)....man I died laughing!!!! I hope you get your ticket, there are good riggers out there willing to share what they know. LIFE IS LIKE A CIGARETTE, YOU CAN SIT THERE AND WATCH IT BURN AWAY OR YOU CAN SMOKE THAT BITCH TO THE FILTER Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bob.dino 1 #7 January 17, 2007 Hooknswoop (Derek) used to have an updated version of that article on his website. Unfortunately, he seems to have decided not to continue to run the site - there's no longer a DNS record for pookiebearrigging.com. Despite this setback, the magic of Google allows us to see the page as it was on 4 Nov 2006. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
