  1. Mikey !! Thanks for the comps. I've been walking around with a self-satisfied smirk on my face the last couple of days -- I need to quit it before one of my co-workers gets nervous and takes a swing at me !! Diva, Pammi -- How's that old saying go ? "If PLFKING can do it, ANYBODY can do it" ! I have the utmost confidence in both of you !! The (temporarily) "Full of Himself" PLF Grand Poobah
  2. See, you've gotten me so upset I'm using poor punctuation !!! WE CAN'T HAVE THE KING IN A SNIT LIKE THIS -- HE GETS ENOUGH SNITS AT WORK !!!!! Sincerely yours, Frustrated
  3. Jeez, ya'll are frustrating me !! I've been all for this idea ever since it first raised it's ugly head last summer !! Somebody get off your artistic ass and do it already !!!!!!!!! (exclamation points to convey my frustration / eagerness to order !!!!!) !!! That PLF Dude
  4. Who in the H*** are these groups you guys are naming ? Some of them sound like characters from "Lord of the Rings", or something !! I guess Iflyme, Triple F, and myself ARE the dinosaurs of these forums......maybe you young whipper-snappers should pay heed to our knowledge -- I mean, we've been around longer, and heard it all, so our opinion SHOULD be the ONLY one that matters !!! (tongue FIRMLY in cheek !) The PLF Bronchiosaurus
  5. Thanks all -- I feel like I won the lottery or something !! The PLF King

    Hi all-- Great thread -- these are hilarious ! My favorite so far is "loin twist".....having been close to this on several student rigs !

  9. Hey all -- First official post on the new site -- BEER !! (thanks, Sangiro, for building a crutch for my hopelessly out-dated compooter !) I've done some sit-fly on my last 2 jumps. The first came about by accident - somehow, I got half-way thru my backloop and just stopped in a sit position, and actually held it for about 4-5 seconds. Then on the next jump I TRIED to get in that position again, and it was back-belly-back-belly-side-headdown-etc... all over the place. When I did hold it the first time, it felt pretty good....now i just have to figure out how I did it ! I was really surprised on how fast I was falling -- I got cold feet and went back to belly-down at about 6000 ft, and it was like hitting a wall ! Also, will be buying my first rig in the next couple of weeks -- I'm 6' 1", 215 lbs. If anybody's got a 230-250 sq ft main in a rig that will fit, shoot me an e-mail.
