    "Lip Service"

    May be a repost, but had fun with this... http://veepers02.budweiser.com/service/Start Hay that clicky thing is cool! Only took me years to figure out Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  2. Nice skydives, watched the video no problems, but I see a lot of horizontal artifact whenever the camera moves,, in Vegas, 2 settings to help minimize that are "bypass motion blurr" and "reduce interlace flicker" but it may be some other shit,, I may be the only one seeing it?? welcome to the world of editing! as if you didn't spend enough time in front of the puter already!!

    High/Low

    High: I was just thinking about Hol! Bought plane tickets today,,, AZ over the Easter holiday. A few from Spokane are heading down. Low: I plan on doing a jump for Hol while there and saying a lil prayer. It will be a year already... Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  4. A link to my first tandem kiss pass,, it was planned, she is a friend, and I think she liked it! Hope I set it up right, & I still don't know how to do a clicky!! http://naturalbornflyerz.com/Web%20Video%20files/Jen%20kiss%20pass.wmv Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  5. Damn I bought a video! Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  6. Hay count me in for a copy also! Looking for the order link
  7. I am hugger/kisser.. it's part of who I am and my SO is cool about it... I give my jumping lady friends hugs and kisses all the time, in the sky they're even better... Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  8. Damn Wingster, Sorry ta hear that bro... Hope ya heal up fast! Buddy had the same surge and did a similiar type of re-injury,, took him a couple weeks on meds and he's ok,, no second surgery was needed.. Sucks wiping your own ass when the back is hurtin like that eh!! Be patient and good luck! You get my PM?? Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  9. "thats enough info to get a latitude but what about the longitude?" Yea, thats what I was wondering too,, that and check the zoom on your nav map display,, gotta be something out there to spy your location with... Nite all.. Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  10. Hate these friggin things! I'm thinkin your far enough south of the North pole, any direction could work really, so that when you head East, the circumference of your flight path puts you back where you started when you initiated the turn, then heading South puts you back at the DZ! Not taking into account earths rotation. Mathematically I have no clue how to figure that out,, Isn't the circumferance of a circle something like "pie" "R" squared,, so "R" or 2R, or some shit of R, would be how far South of the North pole you'd have to be at the DZ... I mean da Base... Edit: Hope you figure this so I don't think about it all night, like stupid song ya here that sticks in your head!! Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  11. This was yesterday,, so yea,, more predicted here for the next several day's tho not as cold,, I'm in Eastern Washington,, so that means it's heading towards most of you all out East! It's cool for a change, but after months the shit get's really old!! Eloy for Easter and a SUNBURN!! Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  12. Ok I'm busted, soory, haven't any stats on other countries DUI BAC's, penalties etc. will have time later to look,, it's more my understanding tho that many places that have lower age limits for alcohol, and less problems with it in general, also carry stiffer penalties for DUI once caught, maybe some folks here can clarify it for us,,, and ya it's a tolerance thing also, kid's at .06 will be more under the influence, many alcoholics will go into DT's if there BAC gets below 2.0 and will still be yelling at you with a 4.0! If a kid is not under the "influence" at .06, he probably already has a problem with it, IMHO. Thats what wake up calls are all about. I was a slow learner and glad I finally gave it up completely. The DOT considers anyone with special licenses, ie pilots, buses, cabbies, trains etc, + for alcohol at 0.02 in this state. That was news to me and learned it the hard way. I'll have to catch up with this later, right now I have to go give a urine sample, hope your buddy does ok! Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  13. Casie, wanna buy me a lotto ticket? Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  14. If you look at most other countries, you will see the US is pretty lax actually... Ya he's basically screwed and really needs a lawyer, not only to represent him, but explain all his options. Wet/Neg to an insurance company is a DUI, they know,, so does the DMV, here its 5 yrs probationary license no matter what the court says... Yea it's a wake up call,, when he turns 21, it goes up a notch to .08, but he will have this now under his belt, on his record. If he doen's get his shit together, the next one will really suck! DUI's are like STD's, folks don't think it's gonna be them. When I got my DUI, I thought I was driving pretty good too, didn't know I hit something,, the horse trailer was rubbing a tire and smokin like a mofo! Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  15. Always, so does my daughter,,, I work EMS also, have for years and seen it all,, it's very rare, ok extremely rare when a seatbelt not being worn is gonna save your ass,, throw enough people outta an airplane without a chute and somebody will eventually survive right Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  16. Another thing to watch is your processor and system temps,, mine has glitched up if they get too warm, not a problem this time of year, just open a window... but when rendering long projects etc. they can get pretty hot... Now when do we get ta see some video!!?? Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  17. Skydive, shit we haven't even seen the SUN in 3 months,, clouds suck! The only time it tried to clear off it was -23F and the plane was in for an annual!! Eloy for Easter and a Sunburn!! Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  18. Just found this and it made me laugh! Haven't climbed much at all either since I started jumping and seriously considered selling gear for jumps.... used to live on Mt. Lemmon and climbed all over it,, nice rock.. took a beginner type class from John Roskelley after moving to Spokane,, worked up to leading 11's... dug this pict out, it's from N. Idaho,, Chimney Rock,, thanks for stirring up the memories!! Natural Born FlyerZ.com

    Nice job Ray! Goes ta show editing is only part of it, nicely shot video to start with!! Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  20. LP, would like to get to Rantoul eventually, but LP is only a 5 hr very scenic drive. Would say that if time is short for ya the 2nd weekend is the one ta plan on being there for... already have the time off from work for that one... Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  21. Thanks for sharing that with us! I can really see how you've improved your FF and video skills! We're having Jump withdrawals bad here!! The weather has sucked and that was exactly what I needed!! Any chance you'll be in Eloy over Easter?? Natural Born FlyerZ.com
  22. It's getting really old editing tandem videos at home! I'm curious what types of Video mixing boards you guys are using?? Makes/models,, what do you like and dislike about them?? I'm thinking of getting one for the DZ for next season but haven't a clue what I'm looking for!! e-bay has several types from studio quality to probable shit... Once again, thanks for your input!

  23. In a recent issue of some PC mag.. It all boils down to what you have at home to play your DVD on,, what program, disc type, etc, doesn't make any differance... Most newer DVD players can play both DVD+/-R or RW discs, but not all of the ones a couple years old will.. if burning a DVD for friends,, I give folks 2 pre-burned discs, a DVD+RW and a DVD-R to take home an try out before I burn a disc for anyone,, for video, the DVD+RW disc reportedly makes a better disc...
