Distance rounds - FLCPA Raeford meet (Video)
dqpacker replied to ianmdrennan's topic in Swooping and Canopy Control
some of those swoops towards the end were scary! watching the new rules compared to the old rules, i've noticed that the swoops are either very boring to watch or very scary. were the old rules it was a bunch of smooth ones and a few epic throws down course. -
just when i thought canada couldn't get any dumber.

SIGMA rig: premature container opening questions
dqpacker replied to skydiverek's topic in Tandem Skydiving
What rig is that? I don't think it's out yet, but a dude can't remember his name, stopped by our dz with it. It looks like a wings with vector parts sewn to it. Sigma for the win again. I don't get why people buy any other tandem rig brand new. -
He is in Sebastian flying the skyvan.

any word if there will be a record for biggest sit round?
-
let's do something soon for the TX state record. that one jump we did that 6way no grip exit that built to 5 pretty quick. we could even go as far as getting oxygen and go higher for the attempts. we have the talent in the staff pool and the fun jumpers that we could try 12 or bigger no prob.

Skydiving for a living for ONE year
dqpacker replied to snoworskate's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
story of my life. but over 900 jumps in a year in a half, is a life i can handle. but i'm broke and live in a old camper. -
so 7 aff jumps plus 10 coach jumps post aff, equals 17 jumps, which is still 8 jumps under the requirement of 25 jumps for your A licence. sounds like a good deal to me.
-
how many jumps on it? how many were in daylight? any water or snow landings?

Did you just watch this video. it's like you typed it word for word. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVAoiLl2B6M

How dare they build a country on slavery! Who would ever live in a country that used slavery to grow? Just ask the Native Americans, the Asians, and African Americans.

Does a "decent time" include eating pork, drinking booze, and cavorting with loose women? you can do all that actually. just not with the townies.

spaceland is in tx, you must mean Sebastian. if you hang out for a few more days the expo is going on in deland.

i thought this was going to be a post about trying to get a tank.

don't have a single second in the tunnel.

Wut? i was thinking the same. totally wrong hparrish. belly and back have way different speeds. i can probably go faster on my back than in a sit.
-
sorry about that, but you did spell, spelling wrong, and that's funny. @hparrish- backflying is important. if someone's neutral position, or recovery position is their belly, 1. they will most likely not be asked to jump with a group again if they do it, and 2. you could kill yourself or someone else changing those speeds. i don't think you have to be amazing but you should be able to fall straight down on your back.
-
nice job on the quick edit of your post. learn to backfly, at least as a neutral position. you don't need to be able to move around but you should be able to fall straight down on your back until you can recover to your sit.

yeah he hooked it up pretty quick. he's been talking about trying it again with a hd gopro and spending a little more time on the design. he also packed the camera in the canopy, he's jumping a comp velo 79. fucking kritter.
