Stacy 0 #1 May 3, 2002 Jimbo needs a new main. Combine the aspects of entertainment value, and then those other thigns like flight characteristics that aren't quite so important.... help him pick one...Jimbo's Main Boring Sabre 2 230 Manta 288 Stilletto 150 "Verocity" 97 Stacyhttp://users.snip.net/~stacy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stacy 0 #3 May 3, 2002 and of course since i knwo you are downsizing, just jump your pilot chute.... you'd only load it at like 150:1Stacyhttp://users.snip.net/~stacy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cansado12 0 #4 May 3, 2002 Jim, I agree with the drogue comment. You call like a f---kn meteor. But I can keep up now!!!! Anyway Stac, I was thinking more along the lines of a G-11. You know, the cargo chutes that they strap to Hummers and trucks to drop from a C-17. That would be more Jimbo's speed. How's FL? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimbo 0 #5 May 3, 2002 QuoteHummers Mmmm.. I'd like a hummer right about now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stacy 0 #6 May 3, 2002 FL is good. I'm being a jump whore down here as much as I can.. timing it so when I'm up @ CK for the memorial day jam I'll hit 500. I've put in pie flavor requests with both stuey and jim, so consult them before you get any ideas.It's not so bad here, it's warm, I can swim @ 9 PM if I want and not be cold, it's always sunny, I'm getting tan... and I haven't lost my job yet! Life is good. See ya soon!Stacyhttp://users.snip.net/~stacy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #7 May 3, 2002 I load my pilot chute at about 30:1. Damn I bet I could get a nice swoop, huh? Maybe instead of yanking on the bridle when I had a pilotchute in tow, I shoulda showed off a little and landed it. Anyone know the surface area of a wingsuit? What are they loading at?Davehttp://www.skydivingmovies.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimbo 0 #8 May 3, 2002 QuoteAnyone know the surface area of a wingsuit? What are they loading at?This was recently discussed in the Wingsuit fourm, I believe a typical wingsuit has about 9 sq/ft of wing. You do the math, but loading are _way_ up there.-Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weid14 0 #9 May 3, 2002 I understand Stacy prefers flour-flavored pie. so what ever else is out there don't bother, just dump like 5 pounds in whatever and have at it.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Stacy 0 #10 May 3, 2002 ya knwo i'd prefer not to have another near death pie-ing experience, even if kelly is an EMT and will be around. SHE probably does not want to wear more vodka cranberry juice. I requested fat free whipped cream and chocolate syrup, those little maraschino cherries are nice too. only if they have stems though.Stacyhttp://users.snip.net/~stacy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Jimbo 0 #11 May 3, 2002 What in the world makes you think you can request the 'flavor' of the pies? You'll get whatever's been laying around in the fridge for the past 8 months. I'm thinking it's going to be a mixture of rotten beer, relish, ketchup, mustard, mayonase, and just a little bit of whipped cream for good measure. I can't wait!

I have to disagree with this one, when I was packing to leave my college apartment I found a bottle of Corona that was green. I thought this was funny because I didn't remember Corona making green beer for St Paddys Day or anything, but figured I might have just killed enough brain cells to not remember, so I cracked it open...
