  1. Hopefully you'll never get the off your face! Welcome to the forums! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  2. I agree with Kate on this one. Rigs and women are all shaped different. Try many and find one that you like. That said, I like my Odyssey. They've come out with a new model this year too that has a lower yoke in the back so you can't feel it at all with a helmut on when you arch. Very comfie! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  3. I haven't seen that video but depending on the people at your DZ you should try to get some packing tips from other jumpers. When I first learned to pack it was from my coach, not a JM. I asked everyone along the way and picked up tips from everybody. I eventually settled on a packing method that was my own made up of tips and suggestions from everyone! As long as you follow the manufacter's recommended instructions you can develop a method that works for you!
  4. That's all I've ever jumped even as a student, all my gear rentals, and my current canopy! PD was awesome when I was looking to downsize. Kolla worked with me and hooked me up with Sunshine Factory when she didn't have a demo she could send me in the short time I needed. Sun Path let me use a demo for a while until I bought my own. Nothing but good things to say about PD! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  5. Pammi made me the coolest necklace and sent it to me over here and I wear it whenever I can! The only thing I can wear in uniform is my gold cross that I've had forever but in civies I'm all skydiver! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  6. Dave, I should have sent Duckie with you for fun! Duckie's having an Ok time here but he misses his liquor! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  7. I sure do have you fooled! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  8. SLEEP! Cuz you know Chuckie isn't going to let you get any there! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  9. He doesn't post in TB often... when I first scanned it I thought it was a comment about S-Links because he's usually always so serious. Then I re-read it and he was really talking about slinkies! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  10. When I'm down people PM me about all the fun they're having back in the states and how good their beer tastes! I'll have to work on getting better friends! You're right though, friends do rock! I would be in a serious hurting state if not for all the e-mails, letters, PM's, and packages received from various dz.comer's. I love you man!
  11. That would absolutely make my Christmas if you were to make it to Eloy!
  12. I won't let RevJim be a thread killer... Cheetos turn your fingers orange... Squeak doesn't know what a tootsie roll is... Strawberry milk is yummie... My horsie is better! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  13. Wow! Can't wait to read it. You guys will probably be talking about next month's Parachutist by the time I get my mag! Way to go Michele! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  14. Jess, we are loving you a second time! My thoughts and prayers go out to you and Rob's friends and family! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  15. Well, you've found a great web site to keep yourself addicted when you can't be jumping! Welcome to the forums! Blue Skies! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  16. Nice to hear you're pursuing your dreams! Keep us posted on your progess!
  17. Hey Dana! First off, don't get discouraged. If this is something you really want to do, take the time to mentally prepare yourself before you go up again. Use your last (bad) dive as a learning experience and turn it into something positive. If you never try again, you won't know if it's something you can overcome!
  18. I thought lizard shrinking occured when you get cold! When I get cold my lizard and balls shrivel to the size of raisens. That's not a very BIG change for you is it? Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here

  21. Glad to hear it went well... remember to take it easy. Don't try to come back too quick!
  22. That's awesome... surprises really have a way of making you feel truly special! You're a lucky guy because your wife sounds like a doll!
  23. It is an ass-kicker and you are by no means a puss! At least you got out there!!! Kolla - will definitely be on my schedule! PM me more info if you would! Thanks!
  24. I have 6 pair of running shoes here... I'm giving 2 pair to the cleaning ladies! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
  25. Hey! I might have to join you for that one! I did a half back in '99 and it was the most rewarding thing! My girlfriend here is an avid distance runner and competes for the Army. I'll have her check out this post tomorrow. She also does tri's in Florida. I don't want to be competitive at it but I'd love to do another half. Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here
