--Late post-- Yes I have actually. That used to be common in Montana back when it wa a 55 MPH speed limit. 55 is completely unreasonable so the ticket for speeding was a conservation Ticket. *Failure to conserve a natural resource* (the wording was close to that affect). 5 bucks on the spot! Or if you didn't carry aound any 5's, or your check book, it was 25 bucks mailed in to municipal court. If you were caught at night, you could pay on the spot with 40 bucks. Unless you were going over 75 you were generally left alone. The 55 limit was lifted, and for a couple years, there was no real speed limit during the day. That has since changed. Contrary to popular belief there is now a speed limit in Montana. One day, I was passenger in a car traveling well in excess of 100 and we got pulled over. Now the rest was a fluke. There is no reason we got away with this. The police officer walked up to the vehicle where we were trembling and making sure our hands were in sight, shaking his head and came to the window saying, " WAY way WAY way WAY too fast.....he ran the plates the and the Drivers license. Calmly chewed us out and let us go. I think the Highway patrol officer believed it's ok to drive fast but not wreckless on roads that are sparsley poulated. We lucked out.

Thanks Dex... You can't argue with a physical measurement ---- In regards to packing. I can pack in 10 minutes or so. However, even though I believe it will work just fine, I can't bring myself to do it that fast. My comfort level requires that I pack slowly.

Actually thats not really True... Sorry you bummed up your ankle though. ZP performs almost exctly the same new as it does used. (untill it blows up) I would like to get John Le Blanc's opinion on that one. ZP is basically and almost entirely ZP throughout its lifespan. I'll be happy to put my 3000 jump stiletto on a porosity checker and bring you the results. I have access to one owned by the pararescue team near me. I'll do that the next time I visit. Get well man. Resist the urge to walk on it :) Tim My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

I'm beginning to learn why you think that. And I'm beginning to agree with that as well. 250 ish was the lowest freefall so far, and it made enough sense to want to do it again. Tim My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Definately don't say " I just fell through a cloud" The last time I fell through a cloud it was awsome.. of course I was supposed to say Industrial haze. Visible moisture is acceptable. Any way, it's cool huh! I was Seriously bustin clouds not too long ago. I kept hearing about all this industrial haze and smoke or what ever. As much as I wanted to believe it wasn't a cloud, I just didn't buy it.. It was a cloud and no one could tell me that it wasn't. They were liars. I have encyclopedias at home and I looked it up. Sure enough, those white puffy things that give you a serious rush the closer you get to them, were CLOUDS!. ...or was I dreaming?

Happens all the time. Sucks doesn't it? Consider when I went to 1:4 wingload....that was Radical at the time. Personally, I would prefer if more people would get hundreds of jumps at, or lower than that, prior to downsizing. But since that doesn't happen much any more, I do my best to share what I do know about HP flight. Cheers My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

What was the most unique or memorable jump you made in 2002?
hookitt replied to akaGQ's topic in The Bonfire
Most weren't from airplanes...and it's hard to decide since there were so many firsts. (bought the beer already) 1) First to open a building near here. 2) Found my way up and off a Large antenna(a few times) 3) First Cliff in Moab. (then several more) 4) So far I'm the only one off a 300 foot high Construction Crane in downtown xxx ....... Back to Skydiving..... 5) Jumped 6 times with my old GF who came back to visit after living in another country for a year. KICKED some serious ass to fly with her!! (she's on her way back to that country right now) My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto -

First take a middle ring from a Mini 3 ring set. Sew some binding tape on it. (Or make something like that with a rapide link) Locking pull up cord -------- Locking pullup cord through the bag. Take the Ring and larks head it at the bottom. (that would be where the Tubestow would be, if I was using a bodkin and tubestow.) ...Cinche it tight. Parachute in bag close it. Push all the material to the outside as best you can. Stow the lines, and place it in the container. Loosen the locking Pull-up cord and grab the ring and unlarks head it. Put the Reserve pull-up cord, through the Locking Pullup cord, and pull it through the bag. Tim My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto
