  1. I thought you were supposed to slide the seat back as far as you can and recline it so you can just see over the dash.Thats how the brathas do it around here. .
  2. Explain the difference between what you are doing now and retirement. .
  3. I don't see the need for the sarcasm.I am very aware of what is at stake,my responsibility and ability as a camera flier. .
  4. Maybe I should have added I go up about 20 ft and backslide.Flame away. .
  5. I have the TM fly a routine.Not only does it help with the quality of the final product but it also helps with safety because we both know what the other is going to do.My routine is something like this: -Exit shot,not too close so as to get the plane in the shot as they are coming out -Track up the hill right away -Good face shot of TM and student -TM right 360 -TM right 360 that I carve with -Close face shot -I go high,TM left 360,I carve to my left -TM goes back to heading and I drop right in front of them If all of that is done smooth and slow it should take you down to about 7 grand.At deployment I go high(about 20 ft)get the shot of them coming past me and flip to my back for the rest of the deployment(back tracking so as to get out from under them. The tandem passenger and their family does not give a shit if you can freefly.They are paying to see their big smiling face on the video.Produce a video that is of quality and easy to watch. I have been in the sport 8 year,I have approx. 1700 jumps and 1400-1500 of those are video. .
  6. Thank you for helping me find that.There is alot on here we could do without.One click less is one click less.It's really two clicks because I have to close the window that opens when I click on the user name. .
  7. I'm trying to get GirlFallDown to organize a boogie but she won't .
  8. 83% of them are made up on the spot anyway. .
  9. I guess with what you replied to it didn't read that way.Sorry. .
  10. That kind of thinking is small-minded and bad for the sport, overall. There are things I like about every drop zone I've jumped at, but I think if I had done every single jump at the same dropzone, I would have had an entirely different experience in the sport. One of the absolute best parts about this sport has been the ability to get out and travel all over and make new friends and jump with new people. I grew so much as a skydiver when I hit the road last summer ... from about 60 jumps when I left to about 100 jumps when I came back, my skill level increased exponentially. I think the chance to get out and jump with all kinds of different folks, some with experience way beyond what I would ever see at home, really broadened my skills. Good-natured ribbing is one thing. Expecting blind loyalty and punishing people who don't give it is entirely another. As far as I'm concerned, that's not good business practice. So your telling me if a DZO told you that if you go jump somewhere else youe were not welcome at his place you would be ok with that.? .
  11. I really don't remember jumping with you.I'm probably going to Skyfest.If your such a great person you'll quit pushing my buttons.I really don't need the extra shit right now. .
  12. Two words come to mind.Blow Me!!! We all vote with our dollars.We can put an end thinking like that. .
  13. And if you re-read my post you will see that I said way more than do a search.Maybe you have ADD and didn't make it that far.Go back and start reading right after where it says do a search.If you knew me or knew what I spend alot of my time doing you would know that I am all into people doing this kind of thing.So take you 53 jump,125 posts and you attitude and go sit somewhere until you learn some manners. .
  14. I really do feel better since I got to beat the shit out of a few people. .
  15. Or you could wack him with a stick until he leaves you alone.
  16. There must by some cool people in the Kansas/Missouri area cause I don't remember meeting any assholes while I was at the convention .
  17. How about a Send Private Message button under your user name to the left of the posts.Would that be possible or hard to do? .
  18. Y'all are going to get in trouble.I can't believe you would do such a thing. .
  19. Tricks are for hookers. .
  20. Well,if no one else at the DZ is giving you crap it must be a personal thing.The DZO is probably as sick of this guy as you are and I see in his future a life like Skymonkey13,bouncing from DZ to DZ cause no one can put up with him for very long.Oh wait,thats my life
  21. See I told you the Speakers Corner is too close to the Bonfire. .
  22. Almost everything I do is strictly because I want to.I can think of no better reason. .
  23. There have been a lot of threads on this subject.You might try a search.Depending on the population of the area and how many people frequent this park you may our may not need anything more than permission from the property owner and to file a notam.Mike Mullins posted here on another thread that you did not need to file a notam anymore although I think it is a good idea.I also think if the jump numbers in your profile are correct you should be very careful. .
