Plus the food here is better, so why move? Healtheir, not better and definelty not tastier. foo in england is all the same everywhere and there are very limited brands. Dont even let me start on the quality of produce and meats at an average restraunt/pub. One thing i like about the uk is that the food is health, the food in the staes was terrible, though very tasty. I am a chef and while cooking in america i noticed that all the potatoes were the same size, i pointed this out to my boss, she didn;t think anything of it and told me how good produce it was, half an hour later i told her the potatoes had not been left in water and were still white, not going brown, she was as blown aways as i was. GE! .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Thats the shit right there mate! I got to get one of those letters. To me it says 'fuck you, think about your livelyhood before you tamper with my parachute!' That letter will stop and make the best of them think first. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Damnit!!! Just bought a 20d and had one of those 2.5mm plugs. Finally got a plug that fits from para gear so gave the 2.5mm tounge switch away. Just bought me a 350d cause it was cheap, and now i dont have a 2.5mm plug.... I hate both the plugs! .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

i count from when i joined the sport, i would say tandems is not part of the sport, (in the athlete way) (big part of the sport to keep us going though) more like you paid for thrill seeking rather than being involved as a sports member. Being part of any sports you need to be a player, and consider it your sport, not so much going out for an adventure. On the other hand though there are many dropzone babies that have been part of the sport since they were born never jumped for 16 years and i would say they have been in the sport all their lives. I guess being part of the sport is from the day you started contributing to the sport, i would not call tandem customers as being part of the sport, though they are being welcomed to our sport with open arms. My conclusion is you have been in the sport for as long as you have made it your 'sport'. It is a sport when you are taking part with your own rig, until then it is someone elses sport that you like very much and want to make it your own. I would say you have been in the sport a year from your posts. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Yes...it does not stop the fact that the TSA super and everyone around him seemed to not be educated at all in handling rigs - was even told 'none of them' had ever seen a parachute go thru security at ORD. 2 things, they better get wise to parachutes before the nationals next year or there will be a fuck load of open reserves!!!! 2 thing, is ok, so they are not educated on parachutes, i am sure they are not educated on many of things. I know ppl on this site like to carry on and so do many others but there ar alot of people that dont carry their rigs on, with only 200,000 skydivers in the world i cant imagine a rig is a everyday thing they all get to see. I am willing to say that o'hare might see about 100-200 rigs go through departures a year, not all the staff of how many ever there is would have seen a parachute. Security needs to educate themselves with bombs first, i think by ripping apart your rig is one form of education, that supervisor has now learnt about cypres and hopefully he will no longer believe that it is an explosive. I was also taught that cypres 1 had an explosive charge in it, or was that fxc? If it was cypres i was sure that they changed this with cypres 2?? .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Read the original again...choice was simply open the reserver or don't fly. Check or unchecked, it was going to be opened. For some reason i thought you had said 'either' check it or open it. I would hate for them to demand my rig being opened, they have tried before on my mates, i told the security supervisor that if he opened it he would be breaking a FAA law and be charged, now i did not know what i was talking about but it worked, he then said he woud walk us to the plane and see if our airline would let us take them on, he never followed us the whole way though

This guy has a bitchin set of lenses and he has left them sitting in my room He is not a jumper, just someone who by the way this house is likes the finer things in life. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

I also travel alot and most my plane journeys are across international waters.. I have to ask why would you tell them it is a parachute if they dont ask? Telling them it is a parachute is just going to draw extra attention to you and your belongings. Right when you say that to them, they then look you up and down and then pay special attention to what you are putting through the machine. I believe if you just go through like it is a everyday thing they are going to take it out, swab it and then let you go on your way. Sure the reason he was an arse may not be because you told him it is a parachute, but you had a chance of that not happening by not drwaing attention to yourself. You were probably the only person that day who actually opened their mouth to one of those TSA guards. I doubt they are use to people speaking to them more than hello, thank you. I am not having a go at you and dont think you did anything there wrong, just from one traveller to another don't say anything unless asked. Innocent until proven guilty. What i really dont understand though is when you were given the choice of opening your reserve or checking, why would you open it? I have given up carrying my rig on just recently cause as we all know flying has changed, security is higher, if you are not allowed to take Liquid products or pain killers or asthma medication on a plane anymore why on earth do you think taking your parachute through security is a good idea? Hell you can not even buy duty free alcohol at half the places in the world anymore. I personally do not blame him for opening your rig. You are travelling first class and taking a parachute on board, you cant blame the guy for being thorough, what if he let something slip by and then he was to blame when hundreds of people die? It sucks travelling around different countries and having to check a rig and see if you are lucky or not come baggage claim but this is what's happened.. Who said the terrorists have not won? .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Maybe the owner wants to live in the UK, near his family and friends and the life he knows.... Go figure. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Thanks for the post. Was what i was looking for. I dont know if he knows about photography, he has some nice film cameras and knows only what he has read about digital. He is off to singapore next month and will buy it then. Not often i know anyone going to singapore so i might have to put and order in i think. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

So i am living with in the house of someone who has all the toys and all the money one could need.. (yes, it is very hard to live here). Anyway, so the reason i say this is cause he is loving my 20d and is asking what camera he should buy while in singapore next month. He does not give a shit about the price just wants the best in the range of the canon d's. He just showed me all his lenses and his old canon eos 10. Some really nice lenses there. I am suggesting the 5D, is what you would buy? Ta. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Magnetic riser covers and spacer foam!!! I so want a micron now! It is going to be hard to buy a new container and it not come from Ankie at wings but from what i see with Micron, magnet riser covers, that spacer foam and Skyhook, what container could possibly beat a Micron... ? Wow, Bill, never have i seen a rig before that has turned me off wings. Is there anyway to get a demo container with all these mod cons to jump over here in the UK? You out there Mark?? Hook me up!! Would love to demo this container! .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Why do you have photos of underage thai boys on your computer? .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Do you freefly Andy? http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_attachment;postatt_id=73038; .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

I think there trying to say "do you ver feel like being upside down so the shit will stop coming out"?. I see there marketing strategy, it is just wrong though. I also see them saying, "here is a way to stop it coming out but we have a product for the people who do not want to go to these lengths to keep it in". .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

I bet you the guy in the photo had no idea they ould be the models for a dioreah (sp) product. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Oh, the reason i asked cause i was not sure if you could jump tubes in the uk. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

I want to know everything you know. How do i go about this? Everything you know is what i think is the most exciting non physical thig to do. I know basics, but dont know the encyclopedia of all this, where course could you reccommend? .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

I for one really do not like customer service in the uk, i am sure other people in the uk also think it is bad but this takes the cake... http://www.24carat.co.uk/questionstheyaskusframe.html If you have time, take a read of some of these and see how people are asking legitimate questions about a company and how rude this company is in reply. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

PAL or NTSC? .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

No friends under 1500. Hard deck cant be 2 k for me as hop'n'pops are known to be 2k. Though i would always like to pull before 2500, if i ever found myself in the unfortunate position of someone needing to be chased, i have always thought that if i was super close and controlled at 2 K i would go to 1500 trying to help but about 1700 that hand will be ripping the reserve handle out of its pocket while stable at no less than 1500. I hope nobody i jump with is ever in that situation. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Is this flat flying with a tube? .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
