  1. Hans has learned to delegate his knowledge to those who have followed.
  2. really?, I got a phone call to make.
  3. It fit in my container. if your fx was loose in it, I think the 84 hybrid will fit just fine. my 87 vx znd jvx fit. the velo 84 was loose. and the hybrid 84 is just a tad bit on the tight side. but not too tight at all..
  4. not that it should not be attempted, or that you need to be put in your place. but seek out somone who can teach you what you want to know before you hurt yourself trying.. if you are serious, contact me and i will get you in touch with someone who can teach you to ground launch.
  5. Aii! Agree, the man swooped longer than everyone except one! Fucking awesome! CONGRATULATIONS! And we can all buy a canopy just like it and a canopy just like(or atleast very, very close to) the one that swooped a tiny bit longer. We are all in envy of the talent, not the canopies. some of us live our life in constant doubt, and don't focus on what is right in front of our faces. some of us live our life in envy. some of us live our life seeking more. some of us just live, congrats nick!
  6. I think there are more people out there like that than you think. some of us just handle it different. and some of us just go at it full throttle to prove "them" all wrong.
  7. magnets can fuck up electronics. how close are the riser covers to any wires for the aad? or how close to the controll unit? just a thought.
  8. my phone says I called you. is that true?
  9. like I said on the phone to you, congrats on the bad ass swoop nick. now get out there and do it again.
  10. try it, it is something you need to do anyway. try it on the canopy you are used to. landing with rears is not a big deal, it is more a big deal in your head. kinda like when you did your first low hop and pop.
  11. britt, just having your smiling face around was awesome. you made a bigger impression on the sport than you think. I am all for something competitive for the ladies. it is good to see someone wanting to push ahead with it. thanks, Kate!
  12. mike, if someone brings a 4 hundred pound pumpkin, would you please allow them to drop it. because that would be awesome... I might be there, I really need to get out there again.
  13. yu wouldn't happen to be at mullins this halloween would you?. It has been a long time. Im thinking of making the trip. PM me... what you wrote is awesome winsor, FANTASTIC!
  14. NO, but Katie, is at the top of my list of hotties i want to see at a boogie!
  15. yes, i do have one chuck, and i haven't even jumped it myself. but im looking forward to it. thanks for the vote chuck, but I will not tell. I will tell you this though, I could not afford it, I have a "very expensive" Idea, and future ahead of me. if it was a few years ago, maybe. I'm sure we will all see soon.
  16. soooo, true. but the pilot who makes the canopy, can make any canopy, "the one". there is no spoon.
  17. I don't think the PM organizers are coming this year. Blues, Ian Uh, both Tammi Carbone and my wife, Katie, are PMS regional delegates. if katie is there, I will be also.
  18. wanna try mine before you buy one? for those of who who think chuck is biased in any way, think again. the JVX is a bad ass canopy, the velo lined with HMA is also, I feel the JVX still has a "slight" advantage, but the velo just needs a few tweaks. my question is, are those tweaks going to be enough?
