    What size Flexon do you have and what size main and reserve to you have in it?
  2. ZigZagMarquis
    That's Awesome! Nick, can I add that to my sig line?

    ... if your DZ doesn't have a beer fund, send your money to me and I'll make sure it goes into our Beer Fund.

    Don't wash them. How many jumps are on it? Do you know what type of lines they are? Vectran? Spectra? Dacron? If its a Sabre150, I'm guessing Spectra. It may be time for a line-set is what I'm getting at. Opinions will differ, but you're looking at replacing Spectra lines every 600 - 800 jumps, maybe less even, say 500.

    Okay... et all, lets then start a new list of "Prim Rib Rules" for those out there that don't want to buy beer.

    Huh?? Nothing comapred to sitting in a plane 5-6 times (2-3 hours) a day with no plugs in. no, No, No... what do you do if you want to make your muscles stonger? You lift weights, right? Well, loud noises are like weights for your ears. Expose your ears to loud noises and they get stronger, right? As evident by pretty soon you don't need those ear plugs for your wimpy ears to tollerate those loud noises...

    Yeah, next someone will come along with this new "great idea" of instead of using gutted 550 addjusted to the proper lenght for a main closing loop, use bungie instead and just put a bite of your pilot chute bridle through it to close your main container!!! No pin needed!! Flex pins have come and gone before... yes, they're still used on some systems, but were pretty much abandonded on sport rigs when Hank came up with the curved pin. If it ain't broke...

    What's the decoder ring for that again??? Humps, Jumps, Beers??? Well then... 0:0:4... thus far

    Two words for Paris Hilton, "General Population."

    Beer & Beer go well together!
  11. ZigZagMarquis
    If you're female & hot, you won't have any problems finding someone to jump with... if you're a guy... bring lots of beer.
  12. ZigZagMarquis
    You could buy a case of beer nuts... or give someone some money and send them to the store to buy beer for you.
  13. ZigZagMarquis
    Huh??
  14. ZigZagMarquis
    Rather then considering it an annoyance, consider it a "warning" that you may not want to be flying your canopy that aggressively... i.e. if you're increasing your descent rate under canopy to a speed fast enough to trick your dytter into thinking you're back in freefall... imagine what it would feel like to hit the air - earth interface at that speed? Anyway... ... I have the 1st warning on my Pro-Dytter set to 4500' and the 2nd & 3rd set to 2000'. I rarely hear the 2000' one... unless I pull low for safety.
  15. ZigZagMarquis
    Why would you need to heat HOT water??
  16. ZigZagMarquis
    It took THREE tickets for you to learn you couldn't park there?

    I thought Skymama just spanked folk when they were bad... not banning???
  18. ZigZagMarquis
    I was surprised when I first learned it and am still puzzled by the fact that you don't actually have to be a citizen of a particular state to be on that state's record...
  19. ZigZagMarquis
    ... yeah, and?
  20. ZigZagMarquis
    DP, Doug, Good answer. Where do you get the FAA part?
  21. ZigZagMarquis
    DP, Sounds like the situation was pretty "fishy", at best and y'all and the DZ err'ed on the side of safety, so, good call. I wasn't there, but would be currious to know... at any point did this person produce a log book or anythig to substanciate his claim that he did have 20-some jumps? Another question... you say... Where are you coming from with the required part?
  22. ZigZagMarquis
    What Bytch said, plus you can go to Tony Suit's website and surf around and learn stuff... check this... http://www.tonysuits.com/fabric.php4
  23. ZigZagMarquis
    Dunno... wasn' there... just heard the stories.
  24. ZigZagMarquis
    Or HE could buy 100 bottles of beer and sign them as he hands them out... "John Doe 1/100"... "John Doe 2/100"... "John Doe 3/100... etc. etc. through... "John Doe 100/100" They would become COLLECTORS ITEMS!

    John, Contact MJOSparky. He'd be the guy I'd go to if I wanted to jump a flag and wanted to get schooled up on all the stuff you ask.
