jtnesbitt 0 #26 November 3, 2009 Quote *** Hell, I know a guy who tied a pull up cord around his lines while packing his BASE rig, and then forgot to take the pull up cord off before he jumped the rig. This guy thought he knew what he was doing, and thought the pull up cord was the way to go when packing his BASE rig. Hmmm....I wonder if this is how he got the nickname in Andy's signature "If this post needs to be moderated I would prefer it to be completly removed and not edited and butchered into a disney movie" - DorkZone Hero Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SafetyNate 0 #27 November 3, 2009 I have seen a cool one called the X Man. it is a 2 way freefly. It works on a big side door. One person facing in with right hand on the bar and left hand on the floor at the front of the door. Their left foot is in the corner in the bottom rear of the door and right foot is up in the top corner rear of the door(making an "X"). the second person is inside facing out mirror imaging the other person. The count comes from the penis or vagina and go head down. When a hot chick does this, I check the dude's pin in front of me with my erection! SWEET! PS. I knew I didnt know shit when I put that death ribbon on my lines. I had 3 BASE jumps. PPS. I think Dave can piss further bc he pinches the tip like he pinches his pennies.

christelsabine 1 #28 November 3, 2009 Quoteand the whole point of this thread just went to crap! The only exit talked about on here is the one i came up with!! Im trying to learn about cool/new/fun/exciting exits i can do... and get a list of them for others who want to learn about different exits. .... went to crap?? What a self-confidence. What were you expecting? Detailed instructions how to throw yourself into the tail or yaw rudder or whatelse - while looking cool/new/funny ....? Listen to the oldies, that's best you can do. Ask your instructor. Jump more, you'll learn more about different exits. Skydiving is more than just a cool exit. dudeist skydiver # 3105 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baksteen 84 #30 November 4, 2009 Quote .... went to crap?? What a self-confidence. What were you expecting? Detailed instructions how to throw yourself into the tail or yaw rudder or whatelse - while looking cool/new/funny ....? I agree with the OP. He's asking about cool, new, SAFE ways to exit the plane. One poster pointed out that the OP's example isn't the safest way to go, so thank you, point taken - and now lets move on. Quote Listen to the oldies, that's best you can do. Ask your instructor. Jump more, you'll learn more about different exits. Skydiving is more than just a cool exit. Of course - you're absolutely right. But there's nothing wrong with asking suggestions here IF these are then discussed with the instructor at the DZ. Skydiving is way more than the exit... But it's also fun.

pirana 0 #31 November 4, 2009 QuoteQuoteSecond jumper takes grips on first jumper's harness Your harness is there to keep your rig on, and so you have a place to keep your handles. Avoid letting others grab your harness, and keep your hands to yourself with regards to other people's harnesses. Grippers are for gripping. Use them. I'm not a fan of grabbing chest straps either. Not sure why, but there are a couple experienced jumpers at our DZ that insist on taking the chest strap. Anybody know why some see that as better than using the grippers? I think people grabbing my chest strap is how I keep losing hook knives. I also had my finger get hung up in someone else's hook knife handle once. After the launch I could not free my hand for about 5 seconds. They're trying to go to the next point and thought I just didn't want to let go, but my knuckle had become monkey-fisted in his hook knife finger hole. He's yanking on my hand, feels like my finger is going to come off, I'm trying to get leverage to push pack and release the pressure. Small thing, could have ended badly. Use the grippers." . . . the lust for power can be just as completely satisfied by suggesting people into loving their servitude as by flogging them and kicking them into obedience." -- Aldous Huxley Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
