skymama 37 #101 December 18, 2003 QuoteIt's the spirit of the thing. Most DZ's I've been to will not let you manifest unless your packed and ready to jump. It's just fair. I guess it's all just what you're used to doing. Pre-manifesting is done at mine, and I don't see a problem with it. For one thing, it keeps the planes running back-to-backs, which is always a good thing. We can also drink beer before a beer light comes on. Hmmm....I think I'm spoiled. She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #102 December 18, 2003 QuoteYes well I guess that means that we shouldn't have an organized events at other DZ's this year either? Not going to continue down this road. As this is the annual Dropzone.com boogie, it will continue on until Sangiro says otherwise, and I will continue planning Dropzone.com events as long as Sangiro would like to have them. Not at all. And I have to applaude the effort you invest. My point was more to the issue of the DZ.com Boogie (which I'm not all that sure I wish to attend) eclipsing, and making less enjoyable the Event I used to attend, the Eloy Holiday Boogie. They are not one in the same as far as I am concerned.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

sunshine 2 #103 December 18, 2003 QuotePre-manifesting is done at mine, It's done at a lot of DZs i jump at too. People with 2 rigs and a packer know they can make every other load and manifest that way. I don't see any problemo with it at all. As for the butt band thing, it is ridiculous....i mean greg and omar are some damn good fliers but who the fuck are they to tell me i have to put a butt band on my rig? I guess i won't be doing coaching with them, cause i'm not putting an unnecesary band on my rig just for them. Gee, i prefer having 2 elastic keepers on my chest strap, maybe i should refuse to coach anyone until they put 2 keepers on their chest strap too.... ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug!

skymama 37 #106 December 18, 2003 QuoteAs for the butt band thing, it is ridiculous.... I wasn't too happy about that either. I've done almost 300 freefly jumps and have never had a problem with my leg straps. Lucky for me I have fat thighs to help keep them in place. I got it put on my rig, but I won't use it until I absolutely have to.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sunshine 2 #114 December 18, 2003 QuoteErk is being a poopy-pants and isnt coming to Eloy.... At least he won't have to deal with all the whining.... You can't put 250+ people in one place and expect them to all get along and agree on everything. Suck it up, grow up, and move on. If the boogie doesn't sound like fun - don't come!! If there's people you don't like at the boogie - avoid them!! Simple as that. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug!
