Ironmanjay 0 #1 March 3, 2008 Hey everyone I got all my gear stolen from my trunk of my car when I left it in there for an hour on friday night at my church in Davis California. If you see it or anything like that let me know please; Infinity container, Black and green fusion 190 main, baby blue PD193r and cypress. Also my jumpsuit, helmet, audibles & wrist altimeters I already filed a police report, listed on here(DZ.com), USPA. I looked around the spot it was stolen(2-3 block radius) DAMMM IT THIS SUCKS!!!!!!!!!! http://www.shareimages.com/image.php?16971-qZyWm5Wik6CknZyVnQ-100_0860.jpg http://www.shareimages.com/image.php?16972-qZyWm5Wik6CknZyVnQ-100_0861.jpg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robskydiv 0 #2 March 3, 2008 Man, sorry to hear about that. It's good that you were in church. Did you have any kind of insurance on your gear? At any rate, I hope (and pray) that you get your gear back. Harry Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #3 March 3, 2008 That completely sucks. Did you hit all the dumpsters in all the apartment complexes nearby? If you haven't I'd suggest doing that before the trash trucks run this week. May not find your rig but you might find the jumpsuit or instruments. "Lost" signs with a reward posted on campus might be a good idea too... Will be watching craigslist...

ryan_d_sucks 0 #4 March 3, 2008 Dude, that really sucks-- But I have to ask- what do these idiots do with gear that they steal?! Skydiving isn't THAT popular that you could just sell a rig on the corner... Especially one as distinct looking as yours.. I wonder if they just steal it and realize they can't sell it, and just sit on it for years.. Good luck man, I'll keep an eye out too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stuntbabex 0 #5 March 3, 2008 This is why I dont go to church. But no seriously, I really hope you find the stuff and Ill do my best to keep an eye out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #6 March 3, 2008 QuoteBut I have to ask- what do these idiots do with gear that they steal?! The really stupid ones show up at a local dropzone and try to sell it. More than one has found themselves in jail after doing that, because of course they don't realize how small this sport is (btw, John, don't forget to email Lodi and Byron so they can keep an eye out too). The less stupid realize they have no use for it, that they would be stupid to try to sell it and then they go toss it into a dumpster. Hopefully this one is really fucking stupid.

BIGUN 1,434 #7 March 3, 2008 Might I suggest that you also post S/N's: Stolen gear database USPA On the website you posted Include in pictures you send to DZ's and if AAD to the manufacturer who will set a flag on your AAD as stolen.Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

brianfry713 0 #8 March 3, 2008 Yeah, post serial numbers and DOMs for the gear. If you don't have them your rigger does. If you had an alti-2 you should post that data here http://www.alti-2.com/customer%20support/stolen.htm I hope it turns up, I'll keep my eye out.BASE 1224, Senior Parachute Rigger, CPL ASEL IA, AGI, IGI USPA Coach & UPT Tandem Instructor, PRO, Altimaster Field Support Representative Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ironmanjay 0 #9 March 3, 2008 Hey thanks everyone for watching out. Im hoping it will turn up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gofastrlbrown 0 #10 March 6, 2008 It will be for sell somewhere unless by luck a skydiver stole it. If the thief does not know the value they will ditch it. Try pawn shops or any skydiving loft in your area. I pray for you since while you were praying some demon stole our pride and joy. GOFASTIt is strange, the more I practice, the better I get!

DHolland 0 #11 March 12, 2008 check the Sacramento and Bay Area Craigslist as well, the guy might try selling it there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
