  1. I once saw a bumper sticker that said "God is too big for just one religion" or something to that effect. Deep huh? Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....
  2. or when you make little stick figure sit flyers out of the same twisties... TRUE I even made a little rig out of a post it note and he hangs in my cub in a sit Wow. You're good. I want one. Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....

  4. When you can't get the twisty tie thing off the bread bag and you're mad because it has line twists. Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....
  5. HAHA AggieDave. I miss college, I'm thinking of going back one of these days. Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....
  6. I pray in the plane after I touch my handles a million times or so and review all my emergency procedures. If I'm in the 182, I pray twice. It can't hurt. I would think that skydivers would tend to be a little more spiritual than most, even if we are a little rowdy. Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....

  8. Yes, I'm reviving a topic that was beaten to death-is there anywhere in California that gives discounts if you buy a certain number of tickets in advance? Someone mentioned something about Lodi, but I'm kinda leaning towards Perris for an excursion back to the mainland. Otherwise, maybe to Eloy, I have friends in AZ.

  9. Thanks, I am using one right now as I mentioned earlier. Just curious as to what else is out there. Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....
  10. .72 if I eat breakfast. DZ won't let me downsize until I can stand up the monster ancient Falcon 195 consistently. yuck. jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....
  11. Which Carrera helmet do you use? i just can't justify spending $200 on a helmet that does nothing other than look pretty. Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....
  12. I was. I have to go back to work in the next 5 minutes though, YUCK. I hate my job. Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....
  13. Oh, damn. Anyone have any experience with a helmet that held up well to a hard whack? Other than the Protec that is, I've already tested that one, it worked and I'm going to get my own-I'm just doing a little research for after I finish paying for my rig and want something else.

  14. I'm looking at a few different helmets, ranging from a Protec (which I use now) to the Mindwarp-I keep seeing these little notes at the bottom of the descriptions that reveal that there is little or no testing or research behind them. Are there any helmets with a safety rating, or at least some testing data? Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....

    I need to move up there. In the meantime, if anyone migrates here for the winter, I will have a room available in January-quiet neighborhood, 15-20 min drive to the DZ. Wayward, loud, rowdy skydiviers encouraged to apply Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....

    Oh, and 2:3:0, including a mostly successful 2 way for the first time ever and an (standing up) end to a series of PLFs. Very cool, makes me grin if I think about it. Now if I can only make it through the week without killing anyone at work.... Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....

    You mainland people are making me jealous. I'm in a less than ideal place for a newbie to skydive, and the DZ is extremely tourist oriented...sigh....not many wild parties here.... Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....
  22. Negro Modelo, yumm. Jumped twice and got sick of the hassle, beer is better than arguing. Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....
  23. I would like to know how the lighter jumpers, men or women, went about downsizing and how quickly they did it. I weigh 120 pounds or so without gear, so 140 or less with gear, and I am jumping a very tired 185 square foot F111 canopy. I would also like to know how much harder it is to fly and land a Sabre 170. I have 20 jumps now, my student canopy was a Sabre 230 and I've been using the Falcon pretty much since then, with one or two jumps on whatever else was available (NAvigator 200 or 190, one on a Sabre 170 but I had a bad spot and landed downwind somewhere other than the DZ and thus didn't get a feel for it).Thanks. Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....
  24. CORDURA BABY! My landing skills ain't so hot......and whe I start to get it, I get kicked off the DZ because of winds anyway.... Jess Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....
