Welcome back to Perris Wendy! I am sure I'll see you around the mext few days. Even though it is still foggy at least you are at the DZ and not at work! Enjoy Perris and watch out for those dirty low pullers! Dom

You don't know how glad I am that is all over. It looks great Mike! Send a copy to Skybytch. God love her this whole journey did start with her afterall! Dom

Good boy Eric! Now maybe I can get that Birdman video from him! Dom

If he goes over a certain alitidude it will pop. All that hot air! Dom

The big advantages that I see to working with a local dealer rather than an online/mail order dealer on a container order are having them there to do your measurements and being able to look at and touch fabric samples. ------------------------------------------------------------ You must not have an online order form!

Spinoff thread: pros and cons of soft links (main or reserve)
dgskydive replied to The111's topic in Gear and Rigging
I recall a post on here from someone that they landed and found that their rapide was open and bent, barely holding the riser in place. ____________________________________________________________ I don't know if it is the guy who posted here but I have seen a guy with a French link on his necklace that was bent like that. Scary! He said as soon as he landed everything fell apart. SUPER SCARY! In reply to THE111. If you are worried about the Slinks being set right, have your rigger tack them down! That way you don't have to worry about anything snagging. In light of what may or may not have happend with Slinks recently I will still use them but I will make sure that they are tacked down. Dom -
We already have a wind tunnel:D __________________________________________ Yeah, but not right on the DZ! Dom

Next time bring the boys and teach them to pack! That why they can pay for some of the trip. For the last big way camp one of my buddies made enough in 3 days to buy a 3000.00 car! I wish they would have more events! Like once a week! Sorry, I am a greedy jump whore! Dom

Damn Lisa. It's nice and sunny here! To bad I am stuck at work still. I feel your pain. I was one grumpy f--ker yesterday. After work it was still like rubbing salt in the wound because I had to go see the last big way of the day. They came close but no cigar. They should do a lot better today. Dom

I started a new thread with the speed results. Check it out. Dom -
They finally got something posted!. ULTRA CLASS 1. Heath R. 2.32 2. Jay M. 2.534 3. Ian B. 2.467 4. J.C. 2.70 5. Andy F. 2.567 STANDARD 1. Tim Bates 3.60 2. Collin Sinclair 2.90 The times are right. The order is also based on any penelties they may have had. The distance rounds started this morning. When I left Heath was in the lead with a 350ft swoop. SWEET! The man is on a mission. The guys are averaging 70 MPH just as thy are coming off the water. They have a radar gun set up right at the edge of the water. J.C. was right on Heaths tail for the distance. They didn't call out his distance but from where I was standing you could tell he was very close to Heaths mark. Sonic had a nice run as well but touched his feet down at about the 150-175 foot mark and then kept going, but the distance is judged from where you first touch the ground. There was another cut away this morning as well. They had a few more after I left yesterday as well. There should be some really cool aerial pics somewhere soon. They got a para motor up just as I was leaving. He is flying around at about 400 ft. taking pictures and video. The 4th plane was taking off as I left. I will see what is posted after work and get something up for you guys. Dom

I've been posting what I can from the few rounds I see before I go to work in the morning. Check Diablopilots about the opening pics. There hasn't been a lot of crazy shit to report. All the competitors are being very professional right now. The first of 3 major parties is going down tonight. I'm sure there will be plenty of shit to report after that. Check the other thread in the morning I'll post what I can. Quade and Diablo are doing the 124 ways. So they are getting ready while the Comp is going on. Dom -

Not no but HELL no. Got the big way camp coming up in Dec. I am already in there. After that JP and I are gonna switch off. It's already been discussed. I listened to how it happened for you and I am learning from your lessons. Dom

One of our guys at the DZ store quite and Brenda really wants to go. So being the nice guy that I am I said I would work for her. So I might be there one day. Dom

Big ways going on and I'm stuck at work. It wouldn't be so bad if the bosses weren't organizing them. So just coming to work is like having salt rubbed in the wound. At least it has been somewhat busy. Dom
