    Rat in the house!

    They will always find a way... ok here is another. "just because your paranoid, that doesn't make you wrong."
  2. were those pics what you were looking for? or do you need more? the quality is at the top. it is hard to see the quality without it being in your face.
  3. which way you like it? straight, to the left, or to the right? me personally, I hang a little left!
  4. S.I.M. = Skydivers Information Manual you can find it at www.uspa.org under the experienced skydiver link.
  5. I was going to say the same thing... lol!

    They will always find a way... is "the man" bringing you down again?
  7. you sure that changing the steering lines didnt fix it?
  8. I have no idea regarding this skydiver's intentions. merely speculation. edited to add: it probably was good that GP stopped him. the skydiver demonstrated amazingly poor judgement. how might the jump have gone? an example, "Hey Gary, hold this for me while I jump!" (stated as he hands Gary a virtually empty bottle of tequilla...) cool, then we agree...
  9. so your saying he wasnt going to jump just after takeoff? i guess if he was packed, and gary didnt say anything we would have found out. especially since "daizy" the FAA was standing right there.
  10. Is a contradiction in terms. If it's out of an aircraft, it's not a BASE jump. It's a skydive, regardless of what type of gear is used. whatever way you tearm it. it is still stupid to do knowing that the faa is within a couple hundred yards.
  11. I know its bad, i spell checked it and fixed them though.... did i miss some? fixed it.. it was spelled wrong so many times i missed 2 of them..
  12. and if you actually read the thread two to three posts later, i said you "you have to forgive me for saying that, i really knnow nothing about BASE jumping""what i do know is about skydiving and it is illegal to jump out of an aircraft with a base rig..." I corrected myself, if only you had read that... it was in a post all by itself so it wouldn't get caught up in everything.. you have seen where i posted BASE was illegal, have you seen where i corrected myself? and i have pointed to that post 3 other times also, surely you have seen it... BASE jumping out of an aircraft at a skydiving boogie with the FAA present is not only stupid, it is illegal.. i think we can agree on that... like I said before, you have to forgive me on my statement about BASE being illegal, i really know nothing about BASE. what i do know about is skydiving. and what this guy, was "trying" to do, was a skydive with equipment that could have put others at risk.. "and im not talking about safety.".. it "the act" that he was going to do, was illegal. and the reason i think it was stupid, is because the FAA is everywhere at that boogie..
  13. the only reason I wont play you, is because you cant hear me.. if someone ties your face still so your forced to read my lips at all times, I will play.
  14. just show up kids, there is a place for everyone!
  15. yes, good luck. and stay safe... swooping is fun, live "or dont get hurt", to do it again.
  16. so im guessing he was in a hurry to pack a BASE rig and to jump low out of a ballon... what exactly is your point? he was trying to hurry, to get on an illigal jump. and going to get out low. could have been bad..... might not have been, we will never know.
  17. goto the website. (in the first post)/ and then click on "contact us". then fill out stuff from there/.//
  18. send them an email, and tell them how you feel... i did...
  19. car business does good at season changes, and or during the extreames in each season. and just before school starts, and during school breaks.

    gary, there are many great parachutists. out there.. some are BASE jupers, and some are skydivers.. hell guess what kids!!! there are even some FAA skydiver/BASE jumpers.
  21. well, i tried to help. you started bitchin about how much of an asshole i am for posting that. and personally, i dont get it. and i dont want to hear you bitchin at me anymore after i tried to explain something, the post 3 or 4 posts up. you think i was being an asshole to you... and there isnt anything i can do about that. i was simply trying to help. it is obvious, you dont want or need my help. so, i blocked you. i dont need your negativity... seriously.. have a good day. im sure someone else will help, Ian is pretty good at explaining it. maybe you should ask him in a pm..
