This guy makes me sick, if anyone knows his contact information...feel free to post

OMG!!!! The movie looks AWESOME!!! And I was really REALLY suprised by the graphics in this trailer...absolutley SUPERB! I'm gonna have to burn this to an SVCD

I used to do graphic design (when I was 15) for a small business called SignMeisters. You could print a picture of the sign out, take it to a signage shop and they could make it fairly cheap. I know it would take me about 5 minutes from scanning to clean it up and have it ready for the vinyl cutter.

Take no offense Stylin, but at one point you wouldn't here any of us. You just couldn't understand us. You had to experience what we were talking about first hand before you could understand. It sounds like your friend has a little psycological trauma due to the death of a friend of her family in vietnam, and that shit's not easy to get over. Some people will NEVER skydive, and that's OKAY.

I saw this video before i started skydiving, I'm suprised I made my first jump after being traumatised by this video

Hehe, how'd you know Yeah, I'm 18 and I started last August when I was 17

So at this point (after I discuss this with my instructors) I'm wondering if I should see if someone would let me borrow a 250ish and play with that for a while and then consider buying a 230 if I'm comfortable and proficient with the 250. I say this because it seems to be much easier to find a 230 than a 250.

About 750 feet and anwhere between 70-90 in the summer

Let's see, I started back in august and here's my progression: 2: Static Lines 4: Practice Ripcord Pulls 1: Hop-n-Pop 1: 5 second delay 1: 10 second delay 2: 15 second delays It would have been only 3 PRCPs but on the 3rd one I got short roped and the bag was out of the container before I could grab the handle and I never was able to find and pull it...I was sooo pissed, but all is well

Hey Will thanks for the backup -Yes I can flat turn 90 degrees at 50 feet: A very cool instructor noticed this and told me that I was being dangerous, he said if I tried that with a smaller canopy I would smack in. But I knew what my canopy could do and where my personal boundries are which is why I turned that low (I was aiming for the peas) and I had enough altitude for it. -Yes I can land crosswind and no wind, Kapowsin isn't known for it's regular wind direction so most of the time I end up landing crosswind or with no wind at all. -Yes, IF THERE IS LITTLE TRAFFIC, I can land fairly accurately. I'm now getting used to flying with more traffic. Last time I jumped, several more people than I'm used to, landed in the student field which spooked me so accuracy wasn't my prime objective -NO I can't front riser anything on that 290, I can pull myself up a bit but it does nothing (noticable) -Yes I can land on slight uphills/downhills. The student field isn't exactly flat...it has a few mogules which I have gotten used to. -I haven't tried landing with rear-risers...I asked here on the forums if I should practice landing with rear risers and I was told not to even think about it. But I have planed myself out at altitude and i feel that if a situation called for a rear-riser landing (i.e. broken steering line) I could cut it.

I know, like I said I will (hopefully) buy gear this summer and when I do it will be carefully researched (that's what I'm doing now) and it will be the proper rig for where I am skill-wise. About how much would you say a student rig would weight? The rig I'm jumping now is an Infinity container, Skymaster 290 main, Raven-M 290 reserve?

I know, I know, "There are NO stupid questions...". But I'm sure you're all sick of answering Downsizing questions. Here it goes anyway; So I started skydiving last August and I have 35 jumps to date. I jump a Skymaster 290. My naked weight is 245lbs and I'm 5'8". I'm definately not a small guy, but I'm working on that (down 15lbs!!!! whoohoo!). Anyway I've been looking around at used gear lately and I am hoping to put together a rig this summer. My accuracy with the Skymaster 290 is pretty good. My first 3 jumps last weekend were in the peas and the next 3 were within 20m. All of them were stand-up landings (for the most part, sometimes I tend to sort of touch down on my butt lightly and pop back up). I would like to get something in the 210-220 range. I would be buying the gear this summer when I have a little more experience. I feel very comfortable with what I'm flying now. I would like to jump a BOC rig, but their smallest is a Silhouette 210. Anyway, any of your oppinions are appreciated, and yes I will be consulting my DZO about it also. Thanks

I love it...Mo, Fo...

Nah I haven't seen the poster, but I have the video on Joe Jennings' Good Stuff DVD

I seem to remember some time ago, someone mentioning a little white dot on the DZ.com toolbar. I haven't seen it in forever...until NOW So what's up with the dot??? I just noticed, the toolbar is narrower under "Email" than under any other page...

Well if she was doing fine while wearing a shoulder brace, I don't know why the UK would ban her from the air...tell her to move to the U.S.

ooh ooh New price for round trip PDX-LAX, $182.50 Sweetness!

I want to go to the Memorial Day Boogie in Perris and I'm lookin' up prices for plane tickets. The cheapest I can find on Expedia is $221 round trip. Anyone know a better place to look for plane tickets?

Wow, Sangiro has a nice ass
