  1. Here is mine. I like the ringsite, honestly I don't even see it anymore...it just stays centered. As for snagginess, use the plastic screws and It should break away if it's snagged. Under canopy I leave it down, I don't want to turn my head fast and rip it off as I would.

  2. If your going once or twice a year...No. If your ground launching with any regularity, get it. It's night and day between a skydiving canopy and a GL one Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos
  3. Shit...you kids are looking at it all wrong! How many would pay to watch Lisa swoop? Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos
  4. Fuck yeah! I'm going to the climbing gym to do some bicep curls and watch Ryan climb!!!! Two at once baby....maybe we can get Tui to do some yoga and then we'll be the shit!

  6. Thanks Dude! Just the stuff I was looking for, she's smart enough to read Fatality reports objectively. any other links would be appreciated! TIA Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos
  7. Love my Viper! I'm gonna keep it till I go to a crossbrace canopy (probably October) then I'll have to change to a bigger container. The one I am jumping is one of only 4 or 6 that were made (depends who you ask as to how many are out there). Ray goes back and forth on wether he's going to start building them so they aren't out for salr yet. Thanks for the info Brother! Peace!

  8. Hi all! I've been thinking about BASE alot lately. I need to convince my wife that I really should jump off stuff not just out of stuff. Could some of you link me to good BASE sites on the web so she can research (she researches everything) TIA folks. Peace!

  9. HC1...the other two can't touch it's performance. Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos
  10. Don't forget: $8.00 to 8k Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos
  11. Gotta disagree, It's not the Zoo jump that's dangerous, it's the people on it. If your jumping with experienced freeflyers who are used to jumping together it can be alot of fun.

  12. I'm not sure it was you but, someone from Realxtream was out at skydance a few months back. While you (or they) were sleeping in that class A airstream you guys have, we were walking around in it checking it out. I guess my question is...can I have it?

  13. Lift Capacity!...I want to jump....alot. Chances are I'm with a crew and if I'm not I'll have a whole bunch of new friends at the end of the boogie. If I'm at a boogie and manifest is 3 or 4 loads back I want to scream. Organizers...they're great, but if I can get in the air with people over and over, we'll get it going. Organized is better then not but I just want to jump, land, do it again till the sun goes doen. Then eat, drink...alot, wake up and do it again! Oh yeah....everyone that keeps saying "All of the Above"? That Boogie kicked ASS!

  14. They can call a saber 2 "Tapered" if they want but make no mistake...it's eliptical. If you load it heavy it will get twitchy and turn on a dime too. Loaded light it's fairly forgiving but it can perform too! Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos
  15. I see. They didn't get the shot they called, but it's still the largest head down formation ever built. Got it, thanks! Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos
  16. So Dude...it's still a record...isn't it? Just not the number they were going for... Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos
  17. Lol...I got to watch it from above and behind. I couldn't remember if you were demoing matter stuff then or if it was the next year. 60 canopies with wingsuits flying fron back to front through the whole cross country. I was gonna talk shit if you were one of those bad wingsuit guys...since you were doing something safe and logical I'll keep my mouth shut! I agree with you guys though. If it's planned then jump the plan, even if it's a crazy plan, everyone knows what's up, they have the opportunity to not participate. If you decide to do some crazy shit, include me without my knowledge then I'll be sad...and I'll share... However. 1/4 mile is pretty far......

  18. JP, remind me...about 2 years ago at the American Boogie (the one with the Hummer wreck) when we did the formation cross country for the last jump, two Casa's and a Caravan. Were you one of the wingsuit pilots that got out last? Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos

  20. I've had both. The PC1000 is more then a little better...but if your just getting into flying camera go buy a cheep ($300) HC30 at target...that way you can learn all about how to wreck your camera and it wont cost $1000!

  21. And if you come to Davis you can jump with the Skybytch herself! Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos
  22. I take it you meant that for killer not me, and I strongly doubt it's political. It could be that those EMT's were just assholes! Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos
  23. Anytime! For the shear joy of being around you guys (not to mention all the things I get to learn from you three). Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves. -Eric Hoffer - Check out these Videos
  24. Thanks Dude! So, did yo decide when you were going to come down to CA? Elsinore at the beginning of Jan would be good....5-7 there's a FF skilz camp going on...and they have a good pond!

  25. Maybe they were unprofessional, I wasn't there and you were. Medically necessary things hurt sometimes...and I only run when I'm being shot at. The only way you can be sure of what your saying is to completely educate yourself on the subject, go get your EMT, hell it's a 5 unit cores at your local JC. As for the bird, I don't know what kind of trauma system you run there and not all EMS birds are equal, there could be a really good reason to use one, and the one on the ground might not be adequate for the needs of the patient or there might be some secondary reason not to use it. How do you know he was stable? Allot of people die after they, "just hit their head". How far was the nearest Trauma center that takes Neuro? Did he loose consciousness? Was he repetitive? I can guarantee you the one thing we don't do is sit around and explain things to people, it's not what I get paid for.... unless you want me to come on out and explain things to you for money?!? I'm in Nor Cal and we just had this jackass hang himself up on an antenna. It took 5 hours to get him down. My agency refused to do the rescue by helicopter (to dangerous) as did the CHP bird, The USCG, and the National guard. Someone ended up climbing the guide wire, setting a pick point and lowering this fool down, who proceeded to complain about how long it took them to save his punk ass (when he wasn't sniveling to the 911 operator about how he wasn't going to BASE jump anymore). So at the end of the day I got to ask...what do you expect when you jump off shit?
