I don't doubt you and I would find it very interesting to talk to an open lesbian as well. I'm just giving a reason why it's not happening. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.

I find this attitude very problematic. What sad people we would be if all we cared about are things we can apply in our jobs. Come on, chemistry is really interesting! I also took a Chem course, a year-long course on Philosophy and a course on Psychology. I'm a Pure Mathematics/CS double major. I'm not saying that you are going to apply those courses in the real world, but it was still very interesting and educational. In particular the Philosophy course. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.

I realize that this is mostly a joke, but it is precisely these kinds of jokes that cause them to stay silent.

0:1:2 One jump while picking up my first freefly suit. The suit looks absolutely schweet, pics WILL be posted when I have some.

The DZ I started jumping at used wide-body C182s, they had the windows. My current DZ has a normal C182 with no windows. I didn't mean that as a general rule to use in every emergency, just something to think about as everyone are jamming the door and the plane is at 1000' diving hard. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.

If it comes to kicking windows out, it's safe to assume that an orderly jumprun is out of the question. This means that the plane is diving hard and you have a couple of seconds left to live.

I've been told that the easiest way to get out of a C182 if you're in the back is to kick out the windows in the top of the plane.

Oh, the nerve of some skydivers!!

When I just started jumping from an Otter I used to remind people behind me about exit separation. I think I got some folks annoyed, but it's my ass, not theirs, so f*ck them. With people still using things like the 45 degree rule, you can't be too careful. I've heard "why are you counting, just look at the angle!" so many times, from people with hundreds and thousands of jumps, that I don't trust anyone anymore. Who came up with that idiotic 45 rule anyway? Not to sound like I'm some superexperienced skydiver here, but it makes no sense at all! In fact, it's counter-productive! It doesn't give you more separation when the winds are higher! It's like saying "look for the big orange flying elephant before you exit". I want to try CReW some day, but if I do, I want to do it with people that at least exited in the same group as me. Unexpected stacks are not fun, and yes, I am talking from experience unfortunately. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.

I hear ya. I've got 4.5 years of formal training and a little more screwing around, and I constantly wish I continued with the training.

It's Ok to be scared. I remember being really scared on my 4th jump. The only reason I jumped was because my instructor was too busy with the static line that just finished deploying my buddy's chute to notice me freak out. By the time he was ready for me the plane was about halfway through the pass and I felt much better. I actually did really well on that jump. Overcoming the fear is one of the most rewarding aspects of skydiving, to me at least, but it's not easy. See my sig -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.

I don't mind the pies myself, I've participated in a couple and got pied and thrown in the pond for my 100th. To me it's still in the innocent fun zone. You know what they say - the thicker the cream, the thicker the love (how is that for concealed homoerotic references). But some of the traditions in this sport cross the line for me. A prime example is the SCR ceremony. I saw some pictures of that, and it looked way too much like some kind of a gangbang from a bad porn movie, only with beer. That's not innocent fun anymore, that's just hazing. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.
