  1. You should build a human size launcher and point it straight up. Skydivers would pay a lot of money for that... I know I would.
  2. LMFAO hahahahahahah. That made my day thanks.
  3. I have the same problem. Good info...I started stowing my toggle right through that damn elastic right after landing just to loosen it up because it's so tight.
  4. Thats really good...I might go with the I- bird instead of the Phantom if its that fast... Your pulling an all nighter eh Fish? can't sleep?
  5. I use a Wings and I'm a noob. If I was freaking out trying to find my reserve toggles I might be in deep shit looking at that not sure where to grab. Especially on my highly loaded (for me) reserve. I completely agree and THANK YOU. At least now I know what to work for.
  6. I feel you on the money thing CJ. I have had to sacrifice a lot to skydive but the reward is priceless. Welcome.
  7. I have been having several skydiving nightmares where I land either without a chute open or on somthing that I should have died from but I dont die. I just get angry...weird.
  8. Thanks Terry, Something for me to ponder.. The more I learn about this sport the more I realize how little I know. I need to stop slacking and take the canopy course and get my B license.
  9. It's right, I just want to fly something much bigger. It gets windy out here and I'm afraid I'll land downwind and kill myself I'm gaining an average of 5 lbs a week due to over consumption, lack of exercise, and alcohol abuse.
  10. Thanks guys (and girl) I really appreciate the help. I will look into some Velocity rigs. If anyone has or knows anyone with a used container that they want to sell please let me know ( able to fit 250-260 main) I'm in the market for one.
  11. Can anyone recommend a container that will fit a large canopy ? (260-280) I'm having trouble finding a good one. The only ones I can find are student containers... would you just get a student rig? whats the difference?
