  11. how much did you end up spending? Do you know if it's converted from the euro or the UK pound? by the way sweet looking set up. Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down
  12. 0:7:0 great weekend w/ 7 jumps. got a stable head down finally. did some hopnpops. lot o freefly stuff. much fun much fun. also met some new people that just moved from michigan who jumped at Tecumseh, very cool people. oh yea and nobody got hurt so that's always a plus.

  13. Just wondering why the samurai is considered a step up from the stiletto? Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down
  14. how much should a triathlon 160 go for that has roughly 200 jumps and is in great condition? Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down
  15. i'm 185 out the door, so about i'm loading the stiletto 150 at about 1.23. Just a note, i am very comfortable under the 150, i've stood up all my landings, i'm making 90's w/ front risers on approach, and all the experienced jumpers at my dz have no problem with me even jumping a 135 after i put a few more jumps on the 150.

  16. I'm going to be looking for a new (used) in the next month or so and what is comparible to the stiletto? I like the turns both toggles and risers, and i'm getting into the swooping action. so what kind of canopies are similar that I could demo?

  17. 0:5:0 1 good jump on friday, and 4 awesome jumps sat. Caravan came out saturday and before i knew i was out of money, damn it. Did a fun 2 sit fly, a solo ff where i finally got some head down action (bout bloody time), a funneled 8 way w/ video, and a pretty good 6 way. so i had fun. oh yea, i'm also working on my swoops (just starting) and i got to jump a spectre 120 because i popped my reserve for repack a little early.

  19. I am thinking about going but was wondering how much you guys spend there? Just need to know when to start saving and how much. Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down
  20. Has anybody started up a skydive photography school yet? I mean there is freefly coaching and schools and RW coaching and schools, but haven't seen any skydivephotography schools. it might be good for newer people to learn the skills that way. by the way i'm just thinking out loud, canucks question about getting free fly coaching sparked the thought.

  21. i'm in the exact same boat. i'm starting to think that i'll work on one discipline for lets say a month or 2, then switch it up. but during that month, if i do a solo jump i'll do the opposite discipline just to stay a little current within that relm. right now i've been concentrating on rw but do ff jumps when i go solo. i also set short term goals for myself to see if i can accomplish them or not for each month.

  22. 0:10:2 Sorry to hear about your weekend, but mine was good so that is good. 5 jumps for my 1st accuracy meet at skydive snohomish (i didn't do too bad either) and then 5 other non-comp jumps that were just as fun. 1 case of beer for the comp. and another for jumping a stiletto 150 for the 1st time. Damn, what a difference going from a triathlon 160 to a stiletto 150. Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down
  23. It looks like the weather here in Oregon is finally here, HELL YEA!!! Now that I posted this it'll probibly fuck'n rain the whole summer for some fucked up reason. Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down
  24. 54 jumps since Jan. 20th. Jan. 20th was also the 1st day on my 1st rig, so i have 54 jumps on my rig as well. my goal is to hit 200 by the end of august, which means 73 jumps in 4 months, which means 18.25 jumps a month, which is 4.5 jumps a week. yup, i'm a dork Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down
  25. 2 jumps this weekend for myself Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down
