Yeah and any freak that has something to say to you about it should be able to write it publicly and non offensively. Dirty PM's are sent by idiots that don't know how to express thier frustration publicly, properly. sorry you had to deal with this.

but even at that price it would still multilpy our countries GDP by about a million(or so) in the first year. Milk powder and cheese take shitloads invesment too but thats all private. if the govornment could get the oil drilled and sell it in euros we would be Rich.... ...why is that such a bad idea? oh those pesky americans that tried to scam it off us in the late 70's they don't like 'Other' countries to control oil.

Well and truly tweaked by the social pressures and brain washing of society. Not taking a stab at you lisamarie just at the mindset in general that a naked breast or any part of the body is offensive.

Oh thou shall not murder hmm how did we get around that one last time? yeah all in the snap of the fingers.

Actually. The mousy clicky operating system WAS developed by Xerox and they tried to sell it to IBM and they didn't want it Apple purchased it and developed the macintosh. Bill Gates approached Apple and said he wanted to work with them as thier product was better as he had already been producing operating systems for IBM. Apple gave him two Macs before they even put them on the market and thats how Bill got the operating system. He tweaked it into windows and then sold it separate to the computers. and was the richest man in the world within a few years.

Me too, it was prety sharp of him to steal the operating system off Apple and change into the windows operating system, IBM thought there was no money in the operating systems at the time. that was stupid.

at least the french can cook which is more than i can say for the americans, they tend to open two cans of whip ass on everybody in the skydiving world too is that why you hate them so much? "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

Are you Kidding? your technology is inefficient, your public sevices are third world and who gives a fuck about the cowboys or yankies exept texans and new yorkers? "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

America bashing is more a form of common sense questioning stupidity. Americans 'generally' do not show common sense in thier decisions. This is from organised propoganda/brainwashing from the administratin and companies. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

well we used to have 40,000,000 sheep in new zealand to our (at the time) population of 3,000,000 Now New zealand is moving more toward Dairy farming as our major income. Tourism is a close second and gaining ground. I don't think the farts could make a hole over antarctica though "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

So My exit weight being *6 kilogrammes would mean that I would need a 139 icarus reserve? Is this the same for othe rmanufacturers? Has anyone out there experienced an Icarus reserve ride? "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

Well considering 1/3 of new zealands residents are either traveling or living somwhere other than new zealand would lead me to believe we know a fair bit about the wherabouts of the worlds countries. Austraila is the worlds smallest continet but the largest island. i though everybody new that? How the fuck could you mistake australia for korea unless you were talking shit. that why yanks are called septic tanks. or i like to use the abbreviation 'Seppos' "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

I read a book called 'New Zealands lost oilfields' It was about the surveying of the ocean just south of Stewart island. The deal wen't bad between the N.Z. govornment and the U.S. company that was contracted to prospect, through kilometres of ocean and rock they only drilled 8 holes and in 3 they found gushers of the finest crude you can get, 1 was pure natural gas and the others were solid rock. It all makes sense because the area I come from in the south of the South island of N.Z. is protected as a world heratage area as the flora and some fauna(no native mammals exept bats) is the same as the jurassic period and has remained out of the ocean since that time. the seabed is perfect for it there. I cant remember the authors name though. Oh Look I just found a reference to it here. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/section/story.cfm?c_id=3&ObjectID=10357843 "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

stupid ass americans talking about invading countries when they don't even know where they are or what they have done wrong. americans really don't get taught about world geography do they? to think australia is korea is pretty fucking dumbass!

Off the south coast of new zealand there are huge oil deposits. one that was sampled in the 1970's was bigger than the nothwest slope and there are more. there was even talk that the hole in the ozone layer over the antartic ocean is due to methane from the huge amounts of gas and oil under that ocean. Just what I read dunno if it is true? "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

a cyclist can actually ride a trucks burble and be towed along without any input whatsoever. I saw this once it was amazing but you wouldn't want the truck to slam the brakes on! "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

many snowboarding Jackets use magnets instead of velcro for the wind flap that goes over the main zip. I have taken my jacket through customs many times and on the plane with me. I imagine there would be no worries even the rare chance that they would pick up on it. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

jim is one of them there are two others confirmed and the 4th will be chosen from competition later. there is a thread on canopypiloting.com "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

a very good conditioned vector 2 with the correct sized canopies and serviced consumables(BOC,Velcro etc.) is o.k. for freefly but these are few and far between. the company formaly known as the relative workshop does not recommend it!

I started with a falcon 170 and a maveric 200 and worked my way through vengence 170 stiletto 135 crossfire 120 and down to a crossfire 109. all on the same slope. when i was on the bigger stuff the winds were light and the smaller stuff the winds were stronger. So it really depends on you skill level, the hill you are flying, the wind speed and your confidence. good accuracy really helps with ground launching so experience with straight approaches and 90's is reccomended although i know of groundlaunchers with no skydiving or paragliding experience at all. you can practice on the flat ground kiting your canopy with forward and reverse launches and find a nice gentle slope to get the hang of actually trying to launch. but don't attempt any significant flights without some sort of training or advice from experienced people. this sounds frustrating but shit man i saw my mate bend himself because he was a bit too keen and it was not a fun experience!

Vortexii are amaxing containers for thier price. I have had one and friends still have them and we all love them. The only thing I do not like about them is the risers are not as well covered on the shoulders as other rigs as the covers themselves are much shorter. and my friends vortex ii was built custom for him with a hurricane and decellerator reserve. the rig was so tight when packed it was giving him a hesitation. this was only when he first got it and now that he has down sized it is perfect. they always updte thier features to keep up with the jonses so very freefly safe. hope this helps.
