    A good place to start would be not jumping a reserve that is overloaded by 50 pounds. My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    You just don't get the point that he is trying to make. He didn't say anything about complacency, the next generation or perceived experience. He was talking about the people with "I am bullet proof" mentality. You should read what the man posted and not apply your agenda to it for the sake of arguing. Try accepting it just as it is written. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    I have been jumping B-12's for almost 30 years and have never fallen down putting my rig on or taking it off. In fact, I can put it on while jogging to the plane.

    Yes, in fact I made two sets last night. That is true of anything! Yea, but you cheat. How many different machines did you use to complete the job? Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    *** I like Lyle Jr.! We use to jump together a lot 'back in the day'.. Once in the Elsinore parking lot... well you know Lyle... he got a bit agressive with me and started smacking be around...I gave him two warnings, then kicked his ass. He got up..shook my hand and said, "Thanks..I needed that!" We then became even BETTER friends!! Lyle Jr. has mellowed out quite a bit. Made some jumps up at Taft with him about a month ago. He is Still wearing the green double zipper suit. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Have you ever made a set of risers? It is not easy and it is harder to do it right. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    It was a lot different then, I felt like I was part of something special. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Grant, She is alluding to the tetrahedron at Perris. A visiting jumper just took out the big end of it and broke some of his body. You have seen it, that thing is huge and the only one in 600 acres. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Did you keep one for the archives/museum? It was a classic. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    I think you made that word up. http://www.fas.org/news/reference/probert/PA.HTM No offence mean't I stand corrected, Probert made it up. Who ever the hell he is. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    As I said before, have him call back when he has survived 25 years. I have seen far more jumpers with 1000 jumps in under ten years quit or go in than I have jumpers quit or go in with 1000 jumps in 25 years. 1000 jumps is about 16 hours of FF time so they are about even there. 10 years is about 87.600 hours of learning time. 25 years is about 219,000 hours of learning time. How do you think has learned more? Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    It would be easier to viev if the the risers where some color other than black and the dive loops where a contrasting color. jmo And I agree, passing on information on new things is not advertising. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Have patience Grasshopper. Solutions to your problems are taking shape as you speak. Things of such importance must not be rushed.

    Bill, I seem to remember the original "Wonderhog" had a spring loaded, External P/C with the pin on the jumper side of the rig.

    Boy I would sure like to forget Lyle Jr. Only kidding. I jump with him at Air Trash "Meeting". How about Roger Nelson and Missy & Rook? sp.?? Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    They may have a lot of jumps but they still have less then 10 years experience. Have them call back when/if they survive 25 years. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    It may take the same time but the altitude loss will depend on you vertical speed at the time of cutaway. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    I think you made that word up. In any context this kind of thinking can lead to problems, "cypres which could get a save". Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Is the DOM on the Javelin correct? What kind of main and what kind of reserve? Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals
