I was playing with my PC 101 and copy part of the movie the Matrix 1 and mixed up with my own skydiving video of a friend makin her first tandem. one of the scenes is when morpheus ask neo if he should take the blue or the red pill, cut and recorded her response, I did it for fun to laugh in a family moment, I guess my question is which movie scene will you use to mixed with a skydive clip. http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

Aldo I gree with you, I think is not what you say but how you say it, if you come with a sky god tone with only a couple hundred jumps to preach something that a persons with low jumps probably never experience first hand. I take good care when I give advice specially when is not asked for and I love to receive comments that can help, is all about attitude. http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

Final draft of Physics term paper
BETO74 replied to NoShitThereIWas's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Wonderfull, easy to read for persons that had no idea about skydiving and skydivers, perhaps you could include more examples like the Sears tower one to help create the picture. Congratulations. -

[I get 1000 to 1200 foot openings with an open nose,stabiliser back propack.] Is this true? I have a X fire with line trim mod and I have the same problem 50% of the openings turn 45 degrees to whatever side, I don't think I loose that much altitude on openings even that is the softer openings I ever experience and that's why I love the canopy beside the swooping capabilities. http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

flat, semi, and fully eliptical question
BETO74 replied to skymonkey2004's topic in Gear and Rigging
I know the feeling, I started with sabre 190 to a Safire 169 incredible difference, now I have a couple jumps in my crossfire and the difference is heaven from hell, more glide more radical turns, in general more agressive love it. If you ask my opinion go with safire same loading and then try a complete elliptical, Safires are great canopys to learn their can be forgiveness or agressive. http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html -
Mounting depends on your helmet, I have an N-vertigo with a Bonehead case for my PC 101. I rather have a RAWA helmet. I really don't like ring sight cuz of the risk of entanglement use manual focus and put duck tape on the ring sight, zoom out all the way, I also use a Diamond .3 lens for free fly. Tape use the one with memory recomended by Sony, the rest is just play with the camera, Add transitions etc, mixers I use Mac to edit my video burn a DVD or just plain back to the video cam and to VHS tape. You will find more info on this forum. Later http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

Importance of downsizing in swoop devolpment?
BETO74 replied to Skypup's topic in Swooping and Canopy Control
Canopy progression: 220 Sabre 190 Sabre 170 Spectre 169 Safire And now 159 crossfire that I try this past Saturday is incredible the difference from the Safire the wind load is 1:3 I can belive the glide of this canopy!!! http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html -
What a waste of time!!! Who cares? http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

First time I landed down wind i broke my tail bone perhaps of the pain i keep jumping only hurts when you are sitting, laughing. then I landed down wind with 20 knots wind longest swoop I ever made, cross winds every so often. Better land down wind than make a low turn.

I opened a hole big enough to fit the top part of the cam eye in the back part to the right side of the tide system, then I took off the material in my pading inside the helmet just around the cam eye, all cables are out sight. my helmet is an N vertigo, you probably need more time with your helmet cuz is a really hard material. http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html
-
Don't recommended at all. But one thing is for sure. is not going to take long for you to learn head down, just let the helmet put you in position. http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

I just got diamond .3 and then somebody recomded this ones http://www.waycool.com.au this one are cheaper and they look better. The problem I have with diamond is they don't always carry the lens on stock so you have to wait or in my case buy a step up ring wich defeats alitle bit by 3mm the propose of having a compact lens that does't stick out your set up. http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

THANKS A LOT. http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

I need some help on this; I just got mi Diamond .3 but is 37 thread and I have a pc101 which is 30 thread. When I bought it they didn’t have 30 thread and they say it won’t be hard to find a step up ring from 30 to 37, guess what? It been hard to find the step up ring. Any Idea where I can find it? http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

Since a lot of people are looking for jobs and I know skydivers are willing to relocate (as long is close to a Drop Zone) maybe we should create a thread with the kind of job everybody is looking or the kind of job you can offer for instance, they are looking for a web design teacher in the technology school I work, if there is any body out there interested send me a P.M. Maybe a person is applying for an out state position and need a friend on that state to put his address on the application form or even maybe stay a night or two while interview. Comments? http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

Not only closed and unlikely to open again. They hangar are in Countys property under residential Zonification not commercial, They broke several fire department laws, remember the club house was not able to open or sell any food, the kitchens in the bunk house were taking out. Carolina sky want the cocession for the airport just to start thinking about making another drop zone were Skydive X-TREME is now, were some of the unpaid skydivers from skydive Ameria are working now. Everything is a shame, if ever gonna be a history of freefly , Skydive America should be include as the most progressive drop zone ever. And those that spend time there know that. http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html
