    My brother made his first tandem and got video. A friend encoded the video file to a .m2p file and sent me the accompanying .wav file. I am having a lot of trouble getting the files multiplexed. Is there someone who knows more about this than me, cuz this is my first attempt..... Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....

    Ive travelled several times with mine as a carry-on without any problems. Just make sure you check the airlines website to detemine if they allow them, have your cypress card, and be patient and cooperative. If they ask you to unpack you main do it for them and they will be much more pleasant. Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....

    I just bought one of those yesterday, I havent given it a test run yet, but it might be "fun" for those sensitive areas... Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....

    I just bought an 04 Mustang GT with a 5speed. You cant buy a car like that and not have a manual. If you want an automatic, might as well buy a grocery getter Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....

    Chopped my main after having blown out the center cells. Went for silver and hardly felt it deploy. Great Opening and I am even a bit over the max weight. Stand up landing in the middle of the peas....couldnt ask for a better 1st experience with a reserve

    I used creatine when I was trying to gain weight (ironically, now i want to get rid of some...), i gained 15 lbs of solid muscle in 1 month. I was lifting for a couple of hours a day, eating about 5 times a day, and working outside building houses. The water intake is crucial, you will get cramps and pull muscles easier if you are not drinking enough. also...i have heard the same about grape juice, so that is how i took it Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....

    I have always had them really bad, especially when I was in HS track. One season, my coach made us walk around the track backwards with our toes pulled up off of the ground every day for like 2 weeks...that was the only season I didnt get them. That exercise will help strengthen the afflicted muscle. Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....

    Just out of curiousity, a couple friends and I were wondering about the average and maximum forwards speeds achieved with a BM suit. I searched for it, but was unable to find any posts on it. Who knows? Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....

    I am needing to get in touch with Simon at Icarus about a canopy I ordered back in October...does anyone know his address. As a side note, has anyone else had this much trouble getting a canopy from them. Kansasskydiver and I both ordered XF2´s from them in mid Oct. He recieved his before Thanksgiving but they still dont seem to know where my canopy is. Is this a common problem with them? Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....

    ~500. Read the report in Incidents...it seems really strange, I had a soft opening and nothing strange until i popped the breaks. Canopy also had no patches or holes prior to this crater. Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....

    I am looking to buy a new laptop. I have a choice of either getting a P4 2.2Ghz or a new Pentium M Centrino with 1.4Ghz. Both have 512MB Dimm. The Centrino is ~$300 more, and I was wondering if the extra battery life it is supposed to get is worth the extra money. Come on tekkies....lets hear it.

    Ive tried to psycho pack several times now, with no success. I have no problem with the initial flip and pulling the opposite corners. The problem comes when I make my folds to the center and try to roll. I can get my folds to look decent, but down my the slider, the end poofs out and it seems that my slider is creeping and likes are going everywhere. This problem just gets compounded when I start rolling the canopy up. Anyone have any suggestions? Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....

    Anyone else about ready to go postal on something studying for a test thats going to kick their ass no matter how much prep time (ie. studying) is invested? Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....

    The leaned back position that you are in is due to the amount and speed of your flare. For instance, if you hammer the toggles down your canopy will produce tons of lift in a short period of time. This will be accompanied by a rapid deceleration of your canopy. Due to the physics of this motion, your body will have more momentum than your canopy and your body will swing out in front as is illustrated by your picture. This happens to all to some degree, but is lessened as one learns to fly the canopy completely through the landings. Here's to the Breezes that blows through the Trezzez.....
