Butt Measurements A man and his wife were working in their garden one day and the man looks over at his wife and says: "Your butt is getting really big, I mean really big. I bet your butt is bigger than the barbecue." With that he proceeded to get a measuring tape and measure the grill and then went over to where his wife was working and measured his wife's bottom. "Yes, I was right, your butt is two inches wider than the barbecue!" The woman chose to ignore her husband. Later that night in bed, the husband is feeling a little frisky. He makes some advances towards his wife who completely brushes him off. What's wrong?" he asks. She answers: "Do you really think I'm going to fire up this big-ass grill for one little weenie?" ***** Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably.

Well, you said "I wanna go!" 6 times and "No you can't" 3 times. Therefore, it is obvious what the decision is that you need to make. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile.

Hey, Oren! I'm opposed to the BSR. I have 114 jumps and my current wingloading is 0.91 to 1. I'm in absolutely no hurry to downsize. I still have a ton to learn with my canopy. I've taken a canopy class with Scott Miller and am seriously considering taking it again when he's at our DZ in the fall. Just for a refresher. I'm trying to learn as much as I can about my canopy and landings. I think we've got a good system in place. Yes, people are getting hurt or killed which totally sucks!!! But, the reality is that skydiving is a dangerous sport. Everyone going into it knows that you can die from this sport - be in your screw up or someone else's that happens to be in the air with you. Would I like to see zero injuries and zero deaths? Hell yes!! Reality is that it will never happen. I'm very lucky with the DZ that I belong to and the DZ's I've visited in that I can ask questions and get answers. And a lot of the "old timers" in the sport are more than willing to give me advice when they feel I need it. Or to yell at me if they feel I need it. I respect that. Adding another BSR is not going to change what is happening right now. What will help change things is people being willing to take newbies under their wings. If some new face shows up at the DZ, someone (S&TA or whomever) goes up and introduces themselves to the newbie and gives them a tour of the DZ which has questions asked - what are you flying? What's your wing loading? etc. Rules and regs - a way will be found to get around them. It's just like speed limit laws. They are there. Theoretically, everyone follows them, but in reality, there is always someone that will push the limits. Will push what their capabilities are. We can not regulate safety 100%. To do so would be to stay on the ground and not fly. Because you do not need to land....if you never jump out of a plane. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile.

Rebel, I found this "poem." I don't remember who wrote it or I'd give them credit (so if anyone does, please, let me know, k?). I thought this applied to you quite well. You said: And, here is what the poem is: To often we are scared. Scared of what we might not be able to do. Scared of what people might think if we tried. We let our fears stand in the way of our hopes. We say no when we want to say yes. We sit quietly when we want to scream. And we shout with others, When we should keep our mouths shut. Why? After all, We do only go around once. There's really no time to be afraid. So stop. Try something you've never tried. Risk it. Enter a triathalon. Write a letter to the editor. Demand a raise. Call winners at the toughest court. Throw away your television. Bicycle across the United States. Try bobsledding. Try anything. Speak out against the designated hitter. Travel to a country where you don't speak the language. Patent something. Call her/him. You have nothing to lose And everything Everything Everything to gain. JUST DO IT. You've got some guts, hon! Your "Just doing it." Best of luck.

you might need it when landing a bit off because of the longer possible travel distance True. I did a hop 'n' pop at Elsinore. I was under canopy at 12,000. It was amazing, and I still landed in the student area. I pay attention to winds aloft, etc. Plus, I had others doing it with me so I was able to watch their flight pattern as well. Life is short!

I'm sorry to hear of the family's loss. {{{{HUGS}}}} Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile.

I've done it and love it. I love freefall as well. I love canopy just as much. I'm actually hoping to have a good weather weekend this weekend so I can pull high and play more under canopy. Try it once. Play with your canopy. What happens when you play with the front risers, the rear risers? How much altitude do you lose when you use your risers? How do flat turns feel? What happens when you stall your canopy? Where is the stall point on your canopy? How about quick and dramatic turns in opposite directions? All of the knowledge you can gain from playing under canopy that high can translate well into knowing your canopy when you go to land it. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly!

My first waver I read very thoroughly. Every waiver at my home DZ since then, I skim over. However, when I travel to another DZ, I read their waiver just as thoroughly as my first one. I want to know what is on it and if there is anything different from my home DZ's waiver. I've never lost concentration when reading a waiver. It is boring, I will admit, but it is something that I (or my family) will be held to legally and it directly affects me. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly!

And, here I am thinking that I need to go buy shorts and debating on bringing a swimsuit or not. I'm pretty much thinking that jeans and sweaters will be way too warm for Davis. Life is short!
