    Do you? I hear you eat the male after you mate with him. I got to many jumps to get in to be worried about you eating me after. Dom

    You arenot truly infected with the southern speak until you respond to all questions with "do what" "Hey John how is the weather/" "Do what?" "I said, How is the weather?" "It's awwright I guess." Dom
  7. It's probably just got up somewhere. All military mail handlers get a mail card that is issued by the post office if I am not mistaken. I had one before but can't remember for sure. I don't think the post office can't get over on this one. Dom
  8. It may be to late for you but here is a word of advice to anyone buying things and having them shipped overseas. ALWAYS USE USPS GLOBAL EXPRESS SERVICE AND INSURE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is far to expensive in most cases to send it UPS or FEDEX. They are the safest but very expensive. The Global Express option is trackable and the insureance is key. To be honest the USPS doesn't like to pay up when they lose stuff. They try and wash thiier hands of it once it gets to another country. Dustin you should be ok because, yours went to an APO if I am reading you right (military right?) The Psot office will have to pay up since it technically left the US Govt. hands. IT may take awhile to get them to pay it but you will get your money back. Usually they are pretty good about getting things to the APO's though. Did ya buy it from Ralph? If so it may just be possible that he didn't send it right away. I have heard worse things from him. Sending good gear finding VIBES your way!!!!!! Dom Dom
  9. You will be more then happy with one of these systems if you get it. For the price right now you just can't beat it. I have written a review about the Pilot. Check it out in the new gear section. Dom
  10. Nice colors there Racer. You to Linestretch. I used to love shooting 4 way video. Dom
  11. Come on. I know there are more of you out there with Infinity's. POST EM! Nice ones up so far. Dom
  12. That is a HUGE rig! You where it well. How do you like that belly band on there? Dom

    Is that how you end up in pools? Dom
  14. I get people to ask me to do that all the time and I won't. It isn't that I don't want to help them, but if we get got doing that we can get in trouble. So don't get mad if they won't do it. They are just trying to protect their business. Dom

    Parachutist?

    Takes em a month or two sometimes. AT least it did mine when I renewed after 5 years. Dom
  16. Just wanted to show mine off again. Plus a few people are looking into them and maybe it will help them out. Dom
  17. Then learn form the lessons that already been taught. Pick up a parachutist and read the incidents. If you go in dude it is just more fuel to every and anyone that wants to do away with HP canopies. If enough idiots kill themselves because they THINK are the "exception" that may just happen. Then you will have contributed to the down fall of some peoples passion. Talk to some of the top swoopers in the world. They guys you wanna be like. They will all tell you you are making the wrong decision. Dom
  18. You don't sound IGNORANT. You sound arrogant. you actaully sound like every other guy with your jump numbers and thinks they are different then everybody else. THis is not a personal attack, but guys like you in general are a big problem for everybody. With your experiance level there is a lot more than just hooking that is going to hurt you. If you don't know what I am talking about then you really shouldn't be under that canopy. I bet I can get better swoops under a lighter wingloading then you can. It is not about how small the canopy isit is about the pilot and his skills. It is easy to judge someone with your experiance level and wingloading. I judge you a future statistic. I wish you the best but the odds are against you. Dom
  19. Thats the P.O.S. we are talking about. If you bought it already I feel for ya. If you are thinking of buying it don't waste the money. Dom
  20. Try feeling for them in freefall as well. They tend to shift in freefall and under canopy. I even touch mine during a track from time to time just see wear they are. Some times I may even look and reach (not grap) during deployment. Just to see wear they are. Good practice. Dom
  21. Tell them to kiss your ass. You had a problem and you dealt with it! That is all you should worry about. Sounds like you will be fine. Your body went into auto pilot and did what you needed it to do. Sounds like you got trained right. After my first (and only) cutaway I was nervous everytime I pulled for the next month or so. You will be fine. Nerves are good for ya . They keep you on your toes! Dom
  22. Have you guys ever seen the video from Somlia. I saw just a part of it years ago. I can't remeber if it was a Black Hawk or Huey, but the Pilot had one skid on a building and was half way out of the bird firing a weapon. I belive it was someone from the 160th SOAR just doing his job. Dom
  23. If they put out that P.O.S. on playstation they may try again with something that is really cool. Maybe we should petition them. Dom
