Last i checked, every one on a big way is not the last out of the L trail. So if you are the Base or First diver. It Might be like: GO, exit, stop, lurk, geek your clone, pick up grip. Watch the formation build ........ work the ripple ....................watch S****y go low....watch S****Y get in ......... Watch some one dump, wait 3 seconds, track, dump, be real aware, land. Wait an hour for debrief, wait another hour for aircraft. Or you could Do 14,15, P Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, ect, grab your clone go head down, track, Open, be aware, swoop. Go right back up.

One of my teammates had a house just off the beach, we drove back this morning got to work shortly after lunch time. Don't run out of altitude and experience at the same time...

Yesterday we rode out bikes from Oak park past Omsi looped over the River, past TM park (got to look at the street people there) and back to Oak Park. About 10 miles on an closed bikeway. If you let me know when you are at Omsi I will try to ride my bike over to meet you. Don't run out of altitude and experience at the same time...

Hey Mel: The number one thing is: go to more meets. For a while i was playing pool in a league. The main reason was to work under pressure with a lot of people watching. I also try to up my physical conditioning for meet season. The regors of a meet are actually easier than my hard training days. Airspeed has a system where they rate their aggression level, 1-10, on each jump and then see at what level they perform best. Then of course you must learn to put yourself there. Much easier to do with martial arts than skydiving. Don't run out of altitude and experience at the same time...

It would be good if we could stop pushing that as a solution. Now i really do not understand. To stop killing in the name of religion is not a solution. Seems to me it could be a hugh start. Please let me know your answer. I will forward it to the Presidents of USA Philippines, Thailand, India, Pakistan, Iran (ooops), Cambodia, Malayisia, France ( naah), Spain, Lets just say Africa, Asia, Europe, Australia, N & S America.

of the proclamation of the state of Israel there were three jewish extremist groups operating in the region. Yeah we refer to that time as WORLD WAR II. SO your answer to my question is: Some ones great grandfather pissed on someones cousins uncle and the UN does not give the Palestine arabs enough welfare. There fore it is alright to preach hate and death from the Mulsim pulpit. Don't run out of altitude and experience at the same time...

Sorta like we did in Salem. We killed people systematically there because we thought they practiced some bizarre religion. Oh so now if we can find something really f uped in history, then that makes it OK to travel the world killing people of a different religion. And i believe the Salem witch trials were caused by lysergic acid poisoning. Most of us now realize it is wrong to kill people just because of their religion!

Do you truly believe western culture is superior specific the Muslim culture? Maybe you are right. whoses idea was it to let women have jobs, go to school, and vote. Heck if we keep letting women do what they want, some day they may have a 4-way team that kicks ass. Don't run out of altitude and experience at the same time...

Making a sweeping statement about one of the worlds biggest religions Hitler claimed to be a Christian, it doesn't mean we all want to wipe out the Jews. But The Christian world denounced Hitler and Destroyed his reich. Muslims preach to destroy Both Christians and Jews. Of the 30 some wars going on in the world today most are due to Muslims. How come you do not hear the Muslim leaders speaking out against the "radical" Muslims? If they are a religion of peace then why don't they bring some peace on? I am sure there are many good Muslim people, but they have to stand up and help stop this Jihad. Do not forget flight 93. Don't run out of altitude and experience at the same time...

when they spent years going over there to "kill infidels" during the Crusades. I think the semantics of what you said is important. The Crusades were expeditions undertaken, in fulfilment of a solemn vow, to deliver the Holy Places from Mohammedan tyranny. In other words they were trying to kick the invading Muslims out.

In Florida you might get away with Pabst or Bud. But when you come to the NW and do a first we drink Mirrow Pond, IPA, or MacTarnahans, ( Micro Brew) The more beer you buy the more firsts you will get taken on. But you should not have to buy beer untill you are off student status. Congrats on your jumps. Don't run out of altitude and experience at the same time...

questions about BASE, yet safe Me thinks you have much to learn, you used base and safe in the same sentence. In the NW there are some very active base jumpers, but I am sure they require many skydives before they will teach you. some gymnastic or springboard diving experience helps.

Excellent! maybe we can do some wine tasting (drinking) friday evenging. Of course we have do be dialed in saturday morning. What up Lorie, you in for some of that, also.

Here in Oregon we have been doing the wine thing for a few years now. During the winter we go wine tasting most friday evengings. One that i really like is LAN i have not been able to find it recently but BJ says try Fred Meyers. The last couple of times we went to Elsinore we ended up at the Wilson Creek Winery. We are coming back to Elsinore the 28th of this month, but Me thinks Tequila is the theme. Don't run out of altitude and experience at the same time...

Hey Bill: While a family making only $26,000 does pay a lot of taxes. Gasoline tax, Driver licence tax, Licence plate tax, taxes on phone, utilities, social security , medacare, property tax, business licence taxesand of course sales tax in California (just to name a few) . But the tables used to figure the income tax reduction start at $40,000 for a family. Then they apply standard deductions ( $18,300) and end up with $45 income tax, down from $1,133 or a 96% discount. see http://www.taxfoundation.org/bushtaxcut.html I beleive we pay way too much taxes but, i think everyone should pay some. PS: If they start taxing clouds i am moving, Clouds suck. Don't run out of altitude and experience at the same time...

Lets see how much taxes did that family making $26,000 pay to start with. The poor do not get included in tax cuts because they are not paying those taxes to start with. I just had a conversation with a 39yo and his wife with a new 3month old. He wants her to stays at home and take care of the baby. And he wants to work only part time, under the table, because he does not want to lose his Oregon health benefits, child assistance, and other welfare.

given that money over to the states for k-12 education purposes. OH no Paul: We just went through this in Oregon. The OEA decided that they could not run the schools with the current increases in school budgets. Oregon is spending $7,027 per student. Which is more than our neighbors: Cal $6,298, Wa $6,394, & Id $5,218. But my point is: The students that score at the bottom of the list, DC, have $9,933 per student spent on them. Throwing money at schools does not create rocket scientist. My question is: How much of my Money do you think the government should let me keep?

Don't forget to click the Airspeed Articles, upper right, on this page, and read about exits. I suggest to new team to pick a few exits, B ,E, O, H and work on them. BOx your exit out then expect the key to transition to the next point. every one must transition at the same time. Do not let your exit spin, probally a timing thing. You can do a few no contact exits, but fly like you are linked and see what everone is really doing. Don,t forget the eye contact with your clone.

You can get shoe goo at K-mart. I am sure Martha Stewart Or Penny Marshall, witch ever one is working can direct you, It comes in a big tube like toothpaste. Best to apply while your booties are clean and new. coat thickley not just on the bottom but around the edges also, and let dry. It will smell up your house, but that could be a good thang. You will like your booties after a few jumps, my promise. PS the incidents has another post about a mal caused after poping toggles. Don't run out of altitude and experience at the same time...
